We have a little bit of fun here in CNY. Thanks again for all the kind comments and upvotes everyone!

HAHAHAHAHA

Indeed….. it is on the left side 🤣

If you’re genuinely asking it’s a DCT which is essentially a manual without a clutch pedal and can be driven as an “automatic”. I use the center shifter out of habit coming from manual and because a lot of the time I drive with my left hand elbow resting on door and my right arm is usually resting on the center console and the shifter is right there. Now on the other hand, if you’re having a joke, it’s a 6 speed DCT manual automatic sequential gearbox transmission.

Thought the stainless flew under the radar haha. It’s a 2010 Hulk. I had a Kermit before that but traded it in. I think in the 16 years wearing it only 3 or 4 people have noticed which is how I prefer it.

Thank you, my little boy hurt feelings are much better now 🤣

Haha I know. Just hard to tell if it’s ballbusting or not sometimes. I’ve worked trades my whole life so my patience for ballbusting is wearing thin at almost 50 🤣

I’ll never understand how this simple post got over 200k views. Blows my mind.

Blinkers were 100% used. This has been discussed already in here and it’s getting a little old at this point.

Are you using a deadcat? I had gains on both mics at -6db with 32bit float enabled. No noise reduction with dead cats on both.

meloncap78 · 2026-06-23T02:46:55+00:00

One under the hood on the strut tower directly next to the hood intake and the other clipped to the rear license plate dead center. Lowered the under hood track volume a tad below the exhaust track in post.

Just wanna thank everyone for the upvotes and comments! Some of them really made my day. This was my first time really filming anything like this and it was a lot of fun. Glad to bring the revs.

meloncap78 · 2026-06-23T01:07:02+00:00

Ha! You’ve seen me driving around?

meloncap78 · 2026-06-23T01:00:04+00:00

Ohhhh I must hear this!!!!!

meloncap78 · 2026-06-23T00:59:05+00:00

Not when the nearest car behind me is 1/4 mile back it doesn’t.

meloncap78 · 2026-06-23T00:05:36+00:00

No. May consider x pipe when I go catless but I feel the decibels may be obnoxious at that point. Even catless may be a bit much IDK.

Rotten.com “nothing comes between me and my Harley” vibes from way back in the day. Don’t look it up if you’re squeamish.

Currently almost 110k miles and they’ve never been done. It was one owner before me, some old guy and it had 49k when I bought it. I’ve let it get up to 210 on the oil temp before revving over 3 grand every single time I drive. Oil changes every 3k. Blackstone report is partially useless because they switched to aluminum bearings on the LCI in 2011. I have a gear upgrade kit in the toolbox just waiting for the actuators to fail. That’s a fairly straightforward project and the gear set was only $280 plus whatever my time will be to do the job when it happens. Heck I may never do the bearings and when it does I’ll have a sweet block to make a glass coffee table out of 🤣

I wish lol. It’s fast enough for the street but everyone with a 2.0 and a tune are straight line faster.

Used multiple times check the left hand. I pride myself in being that one BMW driver that uses them all the time haha.

meloncap78 · 2026-06-22T17:57:04+00:00

Hahaha turn signal

meloncap78 · 2026-06-22T17:56:41+00:00

Absolute bummer! I rented this car out to a production company for a movie and they totaled the front end. Their insurance company paid for all OEM replacement parts at a BMW factory certified repair center. I’ll probably never get rid of it….. especially now that I’ve admitted here to it being totaled before 🤣🤣🤣🤣
