A good friend had an MGB GT that was a blast to buzz around in in the 80's. Very nice, fun looking car!

@ttribe Did you just get the M5? Congrats!

@00TL-P3.2 bummer you broke down and needed a trailer. What happened to the rear panel? Wolverine tried to catch a ride? Is the sheet metal cut?

Other than the size of the greenhouse being of it’s time, the CL-S is still a great looking car.

Was like that when we bought it. No cuts, just some deep scrapes & dented in a bit.

I think I need to get my eyes checked, I thought your avatar was 2 silver / gray BMWs (just different shades). But after putting my cornea against the screen of my iPad I realized it’s the blue m5 on the left, my bad.

you should tell people it’s for aerodynamics and downforce. Adrian Newey came up with the design.

I was mostly joking since a lot of critics call it a hot air intake because it doesn't have a heat shield or go into the fender.

Colder air than my carb on the Midget gets, with the carb/air filter right in the middle of the engine bay. Might be worth running a fresh air duct that direction:

How does the stock intake source air?

Your car isn't tuned right? If not, this is probably all for sound anyway.

The stock intake is a closed box and has a snorkel that runs to the front grille. The main reason I got it is for sound, but supposedly the turbo inlet is good for 10hp, even untuned, which I am, but I don't feel it.

sorry about that.

the cayenne with the reflection in the water is super cool too, it’s like an older National Geographic pic showing their vehicles.

I haven't posted any updates recently .. nothing crazy in regards to updates on the S4 but it has treated me well .. still beating on it constantly .

All preventative maintenance - New timing belt, tensioners, oil, new serpentine belt, coolant - fixed some leaks and it's good to go for awhile.



Cayenne has been keeping me busy:

Wasn't paying attention and cracked my taillight light while backing up in a gas station .. those 3ft poles suck

New taillights, new AT tires, oil change, lots of cleaning, ordered a new AC compressor and transfer case motor to solve my faulty 4WD error messages. Also, vinyl wrapped the hood / portion of the bumper.

Starting to look somewhat presentable now!

I plan on taking it offroading soon - excited to test it out.

I think this is the first set of turbine wheels I've seen that aren't curbed .

My neighbor has a similar wrap on a Y - looks great in person.

To be fair, the turbine wheels are pretty awful. Look really cool but stick out quite a bit
