strad seats are really excellent for a bad back, nothing i have ever found that is better, and i have had 2 surgeries and live on 3 x tylenols every 3 hours. and they've dropped big time like all toyz.

Thanks Jack I would still like to come to a track day and hang out.
Is that a 135 with the proper Brembo package?
One reason I went Merc is the HUGE AMG brake package.

Yes, it's the 135i with the standard brakes (Brembo 6-pot caliper)...don't ask me why they put such large brakes on their smallest car.
With a few tweaks/mods ..... it's a M3 killer.

Woah. Jack I cant tell you how tempted I was on the m3 But the brake thing bugged me. What if I want to track the car. What if my back gets fixed. In the end the AMG brakes were what turned the table.
BTW I have an 08 335i and a 06 X5 4.8is.

Tell me you drive on the street as you drive on the track. I'm too old/experienced/smart (OK, that's too much to claim) to drive fast on the street any more...
The neatest thing about my M3 is that it's a hardtop , and with a touch of a button it's a convertible! Now that's trick!
