now that's a birthday cap! congrats!

rare and unique. Look at all those nice classic gauges! AND much better seats than 02's. ti engine for the win!! it's clearly a cool car...despite looking like a 911 and a Saab Sonette had an ugly baby $150k...hmmm... it's either the Condo in Cabo...or the baby'.....

Any wheel looks good on that super fabulous red tii.. I've noticed many 2002 'flippers' go for Bottle Caps and love to brag about the classic BMW lightweight alloy wheels. Obviously they don't hang out here on the FAQ with the 'cool crowd' or they'd be hip to just how un cool they are...............................................................

see lookie there. somebody loves them...not that there's anything wrong with THAT

My local BMW' family would 'cast me out' if I showed up with 'Caps lol. The stigma is undeniable even though they aren't that bad looking... However I do like the idea of super 'cheap wheels' in case they are stolen (fat chance) or damaged. That fact is one reason I like late model 'slots ( but mostly 'cause I have a serious fetish for them and OE trim rings..) Run whatever for awhile 'till you figure out something you really like...

No "tasteful upgrades" needed

I stopped getting updates... PLUS I took my laptop to my cousin...a super nerd computer wizard who wiped it clean and spotless......no difference..still hangs up on 02faq. I'ts like a 10 second delay..buffering whatever

It's the square tail light curse. Once he stripped it and went all in on body and paint with a late model (with the intentions of creating a full blown $$ concourse car) he was losing $$ I like it alot but if I was my usual OE picky bitch I'd want stock seats, wheels and shocks etc. It's like Pamela Anderson..she had tasteful upgrades...yup...but weren't her stock OE parts alot nicer? when ads says "tasteful upgrades" my red flag goes off and I just know the next words in the ad will be BILSTEIN SHOCKS. Everyone loves them I know..and every restoration uses them.... But.for me if they'd made the effort to find OE shocks and springs I'd be more impressed... In layman's terms which Pamela Anderson would you want..the OE Pamela Anderson impossible to replicate model.... or the Tommy Lee designed "tastefully upgraded" version?

the interior of that white car is to die for

on my current tii the first thing I did was replace the small "hard to turn" steering wheel with a stock 'ti' wheel Doing so saved me $$ on gym memberships and cross training

that caster discrepancy is scary.. Actually looks to be more than an inch *Poly' Bushings, low profile tires, Bilstein Sports and stiff springs on the street> 1) Forget about tunes 2) Date nights are out of the question 3) Kidneys will be shot after a week 4) Carry a 'pee bottle' 5) One positive..you won't be able to hear her complaints If you want a quick answer to your 'strut/radius rod washer placement question google > 2002faq strut/radius rod washer placement. Every answer to 2002 questions (including the Bav' control arm question) is easily googled.......................................

you'll know within 15 minutes of fast driving and shifting on any kind of road short of fresh pavement that your dental work is going to vibrate out...literally

nice story...so true ski corps' are buying EVERYTHING. My favorite old school hill..Homewood on Tahoe's west shore...was recently bought up by an evil faceless conglomerate who's collecting ski resorts..... Then converting them into fancy shmancy uppity' better bring your American Express boutique resorts. They bring in lots of "J-1's"...usually people from South America...to fill out the work force. The local kids get shut out of precious ski resort jobs... The litter the mountains with expensive condo's...it's truly a crime against the whole soul of skiing. Sad...it used to be financially very reasonable for anyone including families to ski there. Tickets were CHEEP!!! I put cable chains on an 02 one time. That's it. Of course they made a bunch of noise and drove me crazy the 20 miles over Donner Summit lol. It was a stock car so there was plenty of room for chains but they still banged on the wheel wells the first day of this season I drove my tii to Sugar Bowl to ski. It's 3 miles away from home and the pavement was dry....awesome
