Sorry I couldn't make it. Weather was a little crappy and I was having some problems with my asthma.

Sounds like you guys had a fun time haha. Arnold and Wilson seem to be best friends now in the 335 scene ;). I hope this doesn't lead to Arnold selling his Z as well lol

I gotta tell you, I've always been a German/Japanese Import snob. I love the 335 but more shockingly enough, I have a lot of cognitive dissonance about the 5.0. As much as I might like the idea of the 5.0 V8 performance and sound I could never bring myself to be driving a Mustang lol.

I have a lot of respect for the 335's and would love to own one. But after all the problems I've had with BMW's, I can't see having another one longer than the 4 year warranty period. I can't even imagine a modded one. But all of that is a moot point once you can afford to pay for the maintenance. M3 all the way

True. Not to start a whole debate again about problems with the turbo motors in the 1 and the 3 series but the guy Arnold knew with the 08 335I told us his turbos were shot and he was hoping to have them replaced under warranty. He was modded but nothing out of the norm I'm pretty sure.

Nah, I get to drive wifey's car any time I want - no point in owning another one. Beside, I still think the 370Z is a better car in many aspects - it's just less practical.

yea i agree. If i had to choose one as a car to drive every day it'd be 370z. But once you factor in the added practicality of the 335, and the slightly worse (stock) performance, its a close call. If practicality isn't an isssue i'd say 370z all the way, but as a 2nd car, the 335 was a good choice for me and my stable of vehicles.

Those wheels you have are soooo nasty - When are you doing this trade? Also, when do you want to switch wheels? Dood - maybe I'll get these other wheels from you too.....

That sculpture is awesome haha! that is a classy way to incorporate your love of cars into the wedding. I've seen some pretty interesting ways that people have tried to do it, but that's definitely the best :tup:


Thanks man. I'll do it tonight, asap. You dont even have to pay me right away. If you wanna swap them tonight just give me the money for the 18's and you can drive away with my 3pc wheels and then i'll bring you the 18's in bk this week. Give me a call, you have my number still right?

AlphaSnacks 09-26-2011 01:35 PM

I agree :tup: Sorry i ddin't mean to hijack this thread into a for sale thread, but i figured since i'd rather sell my parts to people at the meets it makes sense.

Heres some shots of the wheels/exhaust

mr_sk 09-26-2011 10:19 PM

Jeff - good dealing with you. Sorry I couldn't help w/the rims, but thanks for the snows. We'll link up soon so I can get the rest of the tires. See you guys on Wed (work/weather dependent) ...

chuckd05 09-26-2011 10:51 PM

I have been trying... NO ONE wants to sell their rays for any amount of money... :icon14:

Jeffblue 09-27-2011 07:54 AM

Oh well, looks like i'm trading in my car with 3 piece forged wheels and a nismo exhaust with a custom x-pipe, apparently no one wants a good deal. :confused:

depends how curbed they are and how much he wants?

i'm trading in friday lmk, you have my cell number (pm) if you need to get in touch with me

Jeffblue 09-27-2011 11:32 PM

i'm picking up a set of mint powdercoated gunmetal stock 19" rays with new tires. Them being powdercoated doesn't really help me for trading in, but i am paying a premium for them since they are powdercoated (but they are the only set I could find) If anyone is interested in swapping for their stock rays+cash send me a pm, or if you have my number text me. i'll bring them to the meet, hopefully it doesn't rain.
