Just piked up a 2011 E90 335i, and while im not gonna mess with it just yet, i do know that down the line a tune is in the works. I do plan on doing the chargepipe since its only a matter of time before it fails, and maybe a downpipe.

Goal will be sleeper, so im not trying to do any crazy stage 2 or 3 stuff. Just wanna get the most out of the car while keeping as close to stock as possible.

What stage 1tunes are the go to for the n55?

Will post pics once with the car tomorrow, but found a 2011 N55 335i sedan, 6MT, single owner, clean car fax, 65k miles. Beyond stoked

Im in the market for an older used car, looking mainly at german brands. So far only dealer i've found that seems to really focus on this is Elite Auto Wholesle. Any one have any experience with them? and any other recommended places? Willing to drive a couple of hours as well

Welp. My b7 s4 is no more. Looking to spend $15k, $20k if it’s the right car, on something to make my commute a little more engaging.

Looking for:
Awd or rwd
Manual, unless transmission is known to be a blast
Cheap to maintain and work on
Ideally 100k mile max, depending on reliability
No accidents or minor damage kinda thing
Coupe, sedan, wagon

Short list:
C6
B8.5 S4
S2000 (likely closer to 150k) miles
2016+ v8 Camaro or challenger

Don’t want:
Miata, mustang, 86/frs

Anything that I may be overlooking?

So, my weekend car went up in flames this weekend. I have a 25 2.7 stx fx4. I’m considering on doing some mods to cure the itch (that won’t void any warranty).

So far I’ve considered jb4 plug and play, down pipes, maybe a cat back (although fx4 double exhaust is already pretty solid)

Anything else worth considering?

I’m looking to build up an off road kart mainly to horse around, ideally 2 seater, but have no idea where to start shopping in terms of frame. I’m fine with used, just don’t know what models to look for.

As far as component and engine assembly go, I’m more than capable. But with the frame, I’d be able to do some rehab on a decent frame, but def not weld a new one from plans.

Any tips on what to look for in market place or frames I can buy online?

Has complete service manuals through 2013 models. Been a life saver

I’m looking to get a lift for my garage, and from having used one, I know the quick jacks are the real deal, just a little pricey.

Wondering if there’s anything out there that is worth it at a lower price, maybe $1000 max, or if I’m better off just monitoring marketplace until something shows up

Just got a brand new 2025 stx/fx4 and I absolutely love it. My one complaint with it is the mirror situation. They’re so damn tiny, all 3.
For all 3, what wiring is there already in place? For the side mirrors I’m looking at tow mirrors, and don’t want to have to pull any cables or the like. For the rear view, it’s tiny and I don’t think it has any wires to it. How hard would it be to do something like self dimming or homelink? Although I’ll be happy with just a bigger mirror
