I get the “how many miles on your car?” question every now and then. It’s nice to just pull out the app & look. But you’re right, not much else….

That made a world of difference for me. None of the big box dealers (I tried three ?) could get it right.

I remember a teacher that had a Coke can on display that was empty. It can happened to the best of them.

That is the biggest bang for the track buck by far! However, for track… No 4, dude has gotta get a helmet anyway. Number 2 won‘t hurt. Especially if his fluid has been sitting in the car for a while. Gotta love that SRF higher wet temp for the track. No 1, Hawk DTC pads are inexpensive for how...

It’s not hard to get the Supra right with a good alignment. Bob (RocksandBlues) recently drove a newer Z on track ? Similar to what BMWAF was saying https://www.supramkv.com/threads/supra-has-been-a-supply-issue-never-a-demand.22389/page-5 That’s good to hear she even more track focused now...

Unlike the Supra that can do a track day out of the box. Unfortunately, assumed as much. Makes sense why we see so little of them on track.

I turned mine off. Reverse camera works and the damn thing (still unfortunately) beeps. But won’t slam on the brakes.

Agree. But thank goodness this isn’t the 1st BMW ever made. Hopefully most peeps know not to bring her to a Toyota dealer ?

Ever use Red Line Water Wetter?

But there’s a fast white Supra in my rearview mirror!!! Great editing…. ? He was lucky it wasn’t worse.

Sean is right. You won’t need anything in the beginning besides fresh brake fluid. If you have the other things you mentioned - you did better homework than me when I 1st got mine ?

Great point others brought up on alignment and SRF brake fluid. You’ll want to 1-click off the traction control. Otherwise the car will be grabbing the brakes all over the track if you don’t. Just don’t hold it down over 3 seconds. That’s full blown drift mode, lol. It’s a huge difference...

Well done Levophed ? You’ve definitely done your homework! My personal opinions to your questions: 1) Great choice! Those will last you a long time before you out drive those pads. They are fine for the street as well. As long as you don’t mind a bit of noise at times and lots of dust. If you...

Love mine! I have a clear cover but digging yours in black. Gotta take that brace off to clean. So I do it once a year when I change or wash the filter ? K&N 4-Inch Round Tapered Air Intake Filter - Washable, High Performance, 3" or 3-1/2" or 4" adjustable fitting https://a.co/d/0FmWviI

Welcome to the club amigo! On the top of my head: Don’t use Toyota for maintenance, find a well recommended independent BMW mechanic (if not doing things yourself), change your fluids often, driving is better than sitting, let her (or any) car warm up before driving hard, use your free track...

I think I mentioned before, I interpreted the rapid succession part incorrectly and got shudder - once. Good buddy with his track Z4 described the process better. Used the word violently, for bedding them in. He got in my car and did the process for me. Much better choice of words ? Someone else...

The BMW way ☝ https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/motul-x-clean-gen-2-5w40.385448 You have options. This oil forum has lots of good oil discussions for our engine. Definitely worth checking out.

Yeah, it’s sad it’s such an old platform. Kinda reminds me of the Mustang when they were hesitant to ditch the live rear axel. No one wanted that dawg
