My white shark!!!

Advevo · 01-18-2008, 04:35 PM

Yes i have xenons

I go for eibach prokit springs if youre a trackjunky go for coilover set. But i have a 130i race car already so no need there.
I have a shorter final gear and lsd
I go for 225/40 tires on front with 10mm spacers and ad some camber
or maybe buy a set of rear wheels with 245 all round.

thats about it.

The car is perfect.

DimaGt · 01-18-2008, 04:54 PM

Congrats Advevo, good looking car mate.... Now we are all waiting for some videos....

Brandon26pdx · 01-18-2008, 05:18 PM

Any weight measurement yet?

Congrats on the car.

Advevo · 01-18-2008, 05:50 PM

no weight yet. As soon as i can get on the scales you know the exact weight.

larryn · 01-18-2008, 06:50 PM

Wow... I mean WOW! I'm all the more excited to get mine now.

Congrats Advevo.. what a nice car.

RE the pics, two words, pleasing composition.

d3syd · 01-18-2008, 10:10 PM

Great pictures. How about some driving impressions?

ErikB · 01-19-2008, 01:41 AM

wow, looks sweet! I am jealous

Cal · 01-19-2008, 01:51 AM

Congrats on the new car! AW is a great color. It has always been and will always be one of the best colors for BMW.

BForbes · 01-19-2008, 03:41 AM

Make sure you weigh the car!!!

groovyjay · 01-19-2008, 03:57 AM

driving impressions.

Awesome. A little understeer when pushing the car to its limits. Ediff works perfect when floor it.
Suspensions setting is perfect mix for daily and sporty driving. The car gets lots of thumbs up on the road.
You don t feel the weight of the car that much.
The engine is a jewel. So much torque low down. When my shorter final drive is mounted it will be fu... awesome.

TP 135i · 01-19-2008, 02:13 PM

Congrats Advevo.
You are making me YEARN.......

Nice! How's the steering and shifter feel? Is it nice and loud inside the cabin?

Smokey · 01-19-2008, 07:59 PM

Congrats. The car looks fantastic and whoever took the pix did a wonderful job. I'll take mine in black, though.

ehnaych · 01-19-2008, 10:09 PM

Advevo, your contributions thus far have been invaluable to those of us who have not seen the car in the flesh. Thanks. I don't suppose we could trouble you to take a little time and swap the front wheels for the rears and answer once and for all that 18x8.5 and 245 profile tires will fit on the front. If you could that would be fantastic.

~Noel

Advevo · 01-20-2008, 08:41 AM

thx.

Steering feels heavier than my 130i that has electric powersteering.

The exhaust note is lovely not to loud just the way i like it. Its sporty enough the way it is. When starting the car when could it s raspy. Very nice.

When my new diff arrives i am at the garage anyway so i can swap the wheels and see if it fits.

Well thats good to know. Make sure you snap more pics when you get a chance. We could never get too much pics of AW around here. It would be nice to see what the car looks like without any doctoring. Your my hero Advevo!!
