Not so new owner finally posting pics!!
Hello!
I've posted a few times, asked a few questions and gotten a lot of good feed back. To show my thanks I wanted to share a few pics with you all..... pics I know you all crave all the time. It seems the apetite for pics is insatiable
. I sold a 330ci and bought her out of Texas back in early July with 35k miles and drove her home here to LA. The first day I drove from San Antonio to Phoenix non-stop. Some 900 miles or so. Talk about getting acquainted. This was practically going all the way on the first date!! SHe ran perfect the whole way homme. I've been enjoying her continuously, lust after her every time I see her and drove her 3-4 times a week. I love her. Anyhow, looking forward to meeting some of you along the way and thanks again!

Ethec,
Nice!!!
I found my TT in Chicago and drove from Chicago to Amarillo, TX the first day.
Basically Chicago to L.A. in two days and would do it again in a heartbeat. You'll have to join us for the next run. This will be my first time and looking forward to it.

I do want to warn you that the CHP is shooting radar on 395 more than I've ever noticed before. Everything from opposite side shots, to lying in ditches on the side of the road. Budget cuts must be cutting into their retirement pensions...My V-1 probably really saved us 3 times!

Black beauty indeed.......Is the car original paint?
Hope you waved on your pass through albuquerque on I-40 west, I'm sure you had a big s**t eating grin on your face.......
Good luck with her, hope she brings years of s**t eating grins......

Tony,
That's the way to do it. If there are any major issues with the car, I figured I find out right away. I'd do it again too. Have fun on the run. I'm looking forward to getting out there myself.
JRG,
Thanks for the heads up. I can't believe it. I'm taking my Range Rover up and left the V1 in the TT! Doh! I'll watch out though. Are they still allowing 80mph? LAst time I got a ticket I was doing 85 and the CHP officer told me they pretty much allow 80, anything over that and they have to pull you over.
Rassel,
I've done the wheel, same make as the RUF wheel (Atewi?) from AJUSA, Fabspeed muffler bypasses sounds so sweet!, M030 springs and Bilstein HD's, front protection bar, and clear corners on the front. HAve some EVO diverter valves, just have to get around to putting them on, DIY. ANyone have any tips on this? I've done a search so I have a pretty good idea.
Thanks everyone. These cars really are incredible machines.

Oh, no other immediate plans. Car has plenty of power for me right now. MAybe some Cargraphic or Kinesis wheels in the future and a short shifter, though I can't seem to find one anywhere. Anyone know where to get on? In the mean time just put on some new SO3's. They feel great.
Above the heater/ac controls? ............. a king of clubs I found on the sidewalk. i think it's good luck so I just stuck it there for now
