        Jacob is an absolute legend!

        Wish I had the photography skills to do his work justice.

          He loves it currently. He's also owned E36, E46, and E60 M cars.

          I had a chance to drive his Spyder this past weekend, and surprisingly enjoyed it. Compared to the 718 GT4 I test drove, I felt like the Spyder could be the better pick for mostly road/spirited driving, given that you hear a lot of the intake and exhaust with the top down. Adds to the experience. We both agree that the motor in the 718 GT4 and Spyder is sporty but not race-like. That's our only gripe. Compared to the S54 and other motorsport-derived motors, the experience of getting to peak power isn't as climactic and visceral. But that's just us being picky. Plenty of power for the chassis, and the cars are quick.

          Sport buckets make a big difference if you can get them, too.

            Great review, thank you. I wish the RSs weren't selling for so much more than the GT4/Spyders. The Spyders honestly seem like a reasonable buy right now (If you can call any P car reasonable...).

              Dusty, is that Mike's old car?


              edit: since I'm posting ITT, I drove her to the cannabis club today 😊

                    No sir. Bought it back in 2016, but dident have the funds to build/maintain it properly till now.



                    Might recognize my old car from M3forum (RIP) way back in 2012.

                      Love it and very clean. I love how you got the BMW center caps mounted on the CHs! How did you do that?

                        They're decals, I forget the part number but it's an actual BMW part. They fit perfectly.

                        Also, apparently I won "M of the Festival". Competition was insane, so I'm blown away and really grateful. There was so many gorgeous cars there, IDK how the judges even do it.
