I have always had a problem with cars. Usually they are rare. Usually they are well taken care of. They are always fast. They are always European (I have owned a few American trucks) and they always have my name written all over them. No wonder the cops love them as much as I do.
This is the second S I have owned and the third e39. Clearly my favorite driving car made by zee-germans. This one has a few things it needs but has already gotten 18s and is about to get dropped a few. This shot was the day I got it. Love those style 5 wheels.

I have spent a lot of time tracking the progress on my bike projects but have not had the time to do so for the cars. I hope to get the time in the fall / winter of 25-26. Be patient with me!
This is a very rare grey market import car that has lived its life in California. The body is amazing but the interior is gonzo.

You just have to love the Euro Bumpers. The whole dash is in German but the speedo has been replaced with a MPH unit.
These are still slick looking machines. Note the lack of space for the license plate. It has to be cut to fit.
=== [[1993 BMW M5 (e34)]] ===
[[File:IMG 9402.jpeg|150px|left| link=1993 BMW M5 (e34)]] After selling all my bikes and cars, I was on a mission to get a few special cars, I started with the e34 M5 as it was the first purpose built super saloon and it is a hell of a car.
I was lucky enough to buy this machine from the original owner. When I drove it away there were 92,000 Miles on the clock. She needed and still needs quite a bit of work, but it will happen.
[[File:IMG 3384.jpeg|150px|left| link=1988 BMW M5 (e28)]] I took my wife on our first date in an e28M5 and when I sold it she never let me live it down. When I had my third son, it had to be an e28.
When I drove it away from the sad fella I bought it from, I found that the stock suspension left something to be desired. I promptly pulled the whole car apart. Replaced the auto-leveling system with H&R Springs combined with Bilstein shocks. Lowering springs landed this machine right where I think it should be. I also put camber plates in the front end to add camber to the front wheel.
I also disliked the original 16" style 5 one piece wheels the car came with. I hunted around and landed on a set of badly bent (unbeknownst to me at the time of sale) very good looking style 5 17"s. Note the sealed beam headlights which are US DOT spec.
In the EU, they had bigger outers and are replaceable Haolgens. As you can see, this is a serious upgrade to the looks of the car. A costly one but worth it.
[[File:StormTrooperSPG.jpg|150px|left| link=Previously owned cars]] I have owned a lot and enjoyed many old rides. It's fun to keep track of them and to look back from time to time.
A work in progress. This is a 1929 Model A ford. This machine has a Diamond Block, C crank, drilled for oil. Isky cam, Dual Winfields and a Cragar overhead valve head. 39 floor shift and a whole lot more to come.
What a machine! The e39 is by far my favorite BMW ever made (aside from the e28). This car got me in so much trouble I had to sell it. Dinan single mass flywheel made all the difference. I will own another someday soon.
This was truly an unreal car. The brakes, balance and steering were the most impressive things about it. I was not a real fan of the 8K redlining motor but with the the agility I was never one to complain.

Now this is one serious car. I had so much fun in this car it is shocking. I also got a lot of tickets in this thing. The color is anything but discreet. Lowered. Bigger turbo. Brake work. Exhaust work. Torque steer up the fucking ass!!!!
When I was young I had a real hardon for the SPG Saabs. The best I could find was this rare Air Flow Kit Carlsson edition SPG. I was so sucked into this thing that I put 4 Transmissions and 3 motors in it. Too many turbos to speak of. At the time it was one hell of a car.
