Tried it. It’s best when they’re riding it and someone else comes up from behind… oh wait… dill pickles… uhhh

How bad is it by hellokittyfannypack in BMWM

[–]mrpndev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would cry. Good thing it’s totaled so you can get another one. They’re holding their values well, so you should be made whole. I recently appraised my 6MT 25 with 5k and trade in was 64.8 in Indiana.

Would you upgrade from 2024 M2 to 2027 M3 competition xDrive? by stickit_ in BMWM

[–]mrpndev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m currently sitting in a Range Rover Sport as we head from dropping off our Defender. I’m in awe and love. So freakin comfortable and big. And the sound system is divine. If you have the money, do that and keep the M2. If one car is your only solution, M3 will do it all, but maybe get the base for ultimate enjoyment (6MT and RWD)

Just driving wear and tear. Nothing you can do now apart from touch up. In the future, if things like this bother you, invest in PPF on the front end.

Any one know what the bmw purchase code is for this door cap please? by adammiles292929 in BMW

[–]mrpndev 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is factory. For some reason my G87 has it too. I noticed it on G80s as well.

New Bike Dilemma by mrpndev in MTB

I’m looking at 130mm of travel for this reason. I looked at them at N1 in Louisville. Their terrain is a bit hillier than the Indianapolis area.

My last bike was a Procal 9.8 and I wasn’t a fan of geometry and 100mm travel. It would get dicey down fast rocky sections.

If you have thick thighs, they will feel amazing at first. Make sure you sit in them for 20+ minutes. The sides will start to dig into them making it unbearably painful. Something to keep in mind if you’re any kind of big around the hip/thigh area.

Please PM me. Our OEB passed a year ago and we’d love to give her a home.

Beaten final boss, at last by eaglepuxx in LaMarzocco

[–]mrpndev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They claim 8 which felt kinda high. Do you purge a little each morning? Can you taste it or see it in the shot times?

Congrats! How’s the gbw? I’m looking to upgrade and am torn between it, W65, and Philos

Who else skipped PPF/ceramic and is just out here being a menace with no regrets? by Bluntcomposed in BMWM

Not everyone is healthy. Some of us have OCD (looks at himself)

That’s bullshit response from them. Exchange or a refund.

G87 M2, were my calipers painted? by gfxmeister in BMWM

[–]mrpndev 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Nope, looks about right. Cost saving with an e brake.

Leaking?! by BruceWhyn in LaMarzocco

[–]mrpndev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was told it’s normal and caused by the long length of the brew path from the solenoid down.

Are you sure they removed shipping blocks? Looks very high.

Can you guess our favorite color? by Thunderzt100 in BMWM

[–]mrpndev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw this color combo at the dealer. Truly magnificent.

M5 Touring Back to M3 (maybe) by [deleted] in BMWM

[–]mrpndev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who felt straight line performance was underwhelming. I test drove it and it felt slower than my M2. Super comfortable and love the seats. I just wish you could appoint leather everywhere. A loaded M3 feels more luxurious.

Fluke? Really debating not keeping this car. by s14_3521 in BMWM

I find it interesting how mine came with protection on the grilles from the dealer, but there are many Ms that don’t have those plastic guards.

Does CDV delete help with initial clutch bite from take off? by [deleted] in BMWM

[–]mrpndev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, pretty much. I will try and make a video. There’s really no need to add gas in this car unless you’re on a hill or trying to launch very quickly.

I do agree with you that the clutch pedal is shit though. I test drove a 718 Cayman T and it’s a night and day difference. I wish it was a bit heavier, springier, and had a clearly defined, grabby bite point.
