Hi all, Long time lurker and fellow performance enthusiast based in DFW TX. Have been an BMW M car loyalist for many years but looking to make the change soon to a GT4 or 992 T. Cheers all!

HZJ73 vs BJ74?
By Heretic
I've been thinking of giving my '14 BMW X1 to my kids so that they will have a more dependable second car (they currently have a '11 Audi Q5 that is a money pit). I have been thinking about a Land Cruiser to replace the X1 as a "daily driver" (or more accurately, a bi-monthly driver as I only drive anywhere maybe twice a month). Keeping my eyes open online, I have narrowed down the choices to a '92 HZJ73 ZX and 132K km and a '89 BJ74 and 9K km (yes, less than 10K km!) w/13BT engine. Both... Read more
What do you like about your Ram?
By etbrown4
A lot of legit complaints on this forum, but how about things you really like? I'll start. The air ride in my '16 and '24 Laramies have the most comfortable, smoothest ride ever. My' 13 Ferd Lariat couldn't touch it. Even comparing cars I've driven lately, neither a Lexus nor a high end 100k BMW come close. Next to that, the bucket seats are more comfortable than nice living room furniture, giving a Cadillac ride without being squishy. Looks are really sharp too.
Oem back up camera
By Meanmugga
Is it me, or does the oem backup camera sucks? At least video quality wise. Its night and day compared to my sister's BMW. I wish they made HD aftermarket versions.
EPA vs real world range: maybe Gravity isn't so bad after all
By TahoeMichael
I see that Car and Driver has published a BMW iX3 75 MPH highway range test. They report getting 330 miles out of it, versus the EPA range of 392. There's been a lot of doom and gloomy here about Lucid somehow standing apart from their competition and misleading consumers about range. But it seems like the iX3 exhibits very similar discrepancies, as one would expect given the EPA rating procedure that companies are following... Read more

Tire lock?
By gmoney90
Hi all Quick question. Do Gravity have tire wheel locks? Wife’s BMW had a flat and when she went to a tire shop, they found out that the dealer did not include the tire lock key in her leased i4. I was not given a tire lock key for the Gravity either so Just wanted to check. Thanks. Gary
Independent mechanic experiences
By Zubs
Anyone had any problems taking the SE to an independent mechanic? My 2023 SE is done with the 3 year included maintenance. I don’t like the BMW dealership in my area and would prefer to use anyone else. I started calling around and found out only about 30% of Mini mechanics in my area will service the SE. The one I’m trying out said they can handle everything unless it is specifically EV or battery related. At 4 years old the car is only calling for the standard inspection and a brake... Read more
Original Battery Replacement 2021 G90 Ultimate
By Marylandrauder
Old battery gave out @ 46,000+ miles but I still could get a 24-hour trickle charge to get her to turn over. 95R AGM is the largest battery made-only a few BMW's and Mercedes take that size. First thing that comes to mind is HEAVY, but it is easy to remove and install. Registration, now that is another thing altogether! The shop owner said that this 95R on its last legs, had way more power in it than the new Mustang 5.0 battery he was installing in the next bay. Lesson learned- jump or... Read more

Placed my order yesterday
By Jkoya
Well - I placed my order for the 2027 i3 Neue Klasse yesterday at the BMW dealerhsip. They didn't have any color samples for the Ocean Wave Blue or Eucalyptus Green I was interested in. I ended up chosing Le Castellet Blue with the black M interior. I was told I have 3 weeks to make any changes before my configuration is locked. Also told the order was accepted by BMW, but no order number yet... Anybody else place an order yet ?
