Hehe, if I lived near a ski resort and didn't work in a city I'd go for a manual too.
 
Great engine note their and definitely your best video. Done any commercial video work recently?

One of your best videos to date man :) Nice car indeed, and you bought a manual too, top lad! :D

My own car, this time. 1986 635CSi. I picked it up in West Virginia a few weeks ago and drove it back 600 miles to Vermont. The clutch stopped disengaging halfway through, but other than that, it was fine. :eek: I absolutely love it, though. :D

Thanks. Yeah, it's a clean car. Originally from Georgia (meaning no snowy winters and no road salt), so there's no rust, and the interior is in excellent shape.
 
And yeah, my dad won't be able to drive it without extensive modification. :( But he likes new cars better anyway (he's been skeptical of the whole process buying this one, and keeps reminding me that the '80s weren't the peak of automotive reliability haha).
 

 
Yeah, I had to drive down to West Virginia (1250 miles round trip) to pick it up, but the result is that WOW is it in good shape. Final price was $5400, then plus $400 for tax/reg and another $400 in gas ( :eek: ) to get down there and back up. Not a deal, but a fair price for a car in great condition.
 

 
Yeah, I love the way it drives. Feels more... competent than my friend's E30, and it's in better condition than the E28 owned by the kid across the street haha. There's something rewarding about driving a big, heavy coupe. I'd much rather switch to a Euro bumper, but it would require welding, and I'm not sure I'm ready to dive into that just yet. ;)

Yeah, I'm still in that phase too haha. I don't actually have too many pics, as the leaves aren't out yet and the car is already in for a master cylinder (not too bad, and should be out by next week). But there will be a better photoshoot/video soon.

Does it count as spotted if I didn't technically own it at the time? ;) (And sorry for the iPhone picture, my camera was stowed at the time.)
 

 
More will come soon, but probably not in this thread. Also, hopefully I can get some nice shots of the ZL1 Camaro convertible currently residing at the local Chevy dealer. :eek:

I wanted to film something on a school snowday a couple of weeks ago, so a friend of mine and I went out on a 0-degree F (-17C) day and filmed this (him driving, me filming):
 

 
I know this one isn't much, but I at least have something planned for a couple of weeks from now. That one should be big. ;)
