You guys should have made the run today (Hari Raya Haji). Came back from KL today by road and the traffic was super smooth, harly any trucks and only a handful of tour buses, and no speed trap and custom clearance on each side in less than 3 mins! Overcast sky with occasional drizzles along the way near melaka back to Singapore. It was a great day to travel actually.

Sounds good. Your car fully run in liao?

We'll live to drive another day I guess. Just need to find a day where most of us can make it.

Guys, this is just preliminary. I am thinking of letting go my M166 rims; just maybe; if the price is right. I am very tempted to buy the M167 rims (M6). Pls PM me if there's any interest at all. As you all know, these rims have been on my ride for less than 5 months and are still in prestine condition. However, the rims will not come with tyres.

Haha, didn't drive up in my car though, was in another friend's Bimmer. My car will run in by next week. Unfortunately, it's sitting in PML workshop for spray painting of the bonet. Some idiot inflicted a deep scratch (about 3 inches in length) on the bonet using what appeared to be a key. A typical vandalism case. Was at Orchard Cineleisure carpark some more.

Indeed I would love to take the car up north for a run. Will hope to join in when you guys make the run in the near future.

My last car has 6 outstanding summons, all were from fake speed trap laid down by the polis claiming they have photo evidence of my speed (Almost always I was booked for travelling 125-129km/hr whereas I was clearly going above 160km/hr). Each time they stopped me at Malaysia's immigration, I asked for photo evidence and they can never produced them. Just have to put up a little inconvenience each time crossing back to Singapore.

Hi Tony, I paid $650 for the paint job covering the entire bonet. Was told a complete car paint job would set one off by $5k! I am sure a third party would do it for not more than 3k.

As for the lowering the ride, you can go for the Sports suspension setting (code 226), with the car lowered by 15mm and the price quoted previously was $1501. This is not the same as the M sports suspension (code 704) which is approx $3k. Hope this helps.

guys, couple of new docks will be out which will allow for display of playlists on the big screen. not just the video. they both seem to have remotes. but no mention of remote extender, so you can't mount your ipod out of sight with some extra work.

code 226 at $1501? what set up is that? is this retrofit or factory option price?
didn't know there is sport suspension that cheap from OEM...

1628, if you want comfort and sporty drive, go retrofit the OEM sport suspension... it definitely improve the handling.
