Pseto w/ his new M roadster...learning to drive stick!

Sniz · 07-02-2008, 09:06 AM

A bit painful to watch, but after driving the car myself I'll have to say he picked a hard car to learn stick on. Pseto picked this up just a few days ago from California...and yes he plans on getting rid of the chromed wheels!

Me, Pseto, and Frank were over at Howard High on their beautifully repaved parking lot to fry some rubber...err clutch.

I really need to work on my rolling shots, not happy w/ these at all.

Paul scared shitless!

Frank waving for help

Paul doin the pimp lean

Heading out

i want to know the specs. I need a convertible too man.

Great pics

Sniz · 07-02-2008, 09:40 AM

I found out that wearing crocs and driving an M roadster dont go together.....in my 335, no problem.

Neat little car.....feels very nimble!

Spool · 07-02-2008, 10:17 AM

Hehe nice outfits guys...looks like watermelon

pseto · 07-02-2008, 10:49 AM

were those pics before or after I stalled a million times?

lesson learned: just say no to crocs.

Boost3dm3 · 07-02-2008, 12:28 PM

manual is the way to go!

Welcome to the //M world!

HennarotM3 · 07-02-2008, 02:48 PM

I think I want the Z4M more than the e92 M3 when my wife takes over the 335i now...

FrankoQ · 07-02-2008, 08:54 PM

I can still smell burned clutch

bubbletea 4 me · 07-04-2008, 12:03 AM

nice car, congrad. i never realized that Z3 looks soooo tiny.

i think the best car to learn stick in is S2k (or any honda pretty much). u can NOT stall that car and you will NOT find a easier and smoother manual transmission than what honda makes.

Would those be the same "drag" Crocs you wore to MIR? You could trap a bear under those things!

bimmernupe · 07-04-2008, 11:45 AM

Woohoo!!!! congrats

PSI Power · 07-06-2008, 11:17 PM

Car looks great!
Very nice choice. Looks like a blast to drive.
Enjoy.
Can you fit golf clubs in that thing?

havent really tried yet, but I will. Probably have to take my woods out of the bag, and I hope they fit in the trunk. Otherwise, I'll have company in the cockpit

FrankoQ · 07-07-2008, 10:25 AM

are you practicing every day as doctor Sniz prescribed?

pseto · 07-07-2008, 10:41 AM

kinda, had to teach wife too. she took it to work today and has gotten pretty good.

we usually go out late evening when less cars are on the road. i'll probably drive to the social on Thur

I would appreciate a text w/ a heads up when you or the wife is on the road in this thing.......I want ample time to turn around and head the other direction

.

side note- are you coming on the summer cruise to PA? Are you driving this?

For your information they are "off-road" crocs.....twice as dorky.

still not sure about the summer tour just yet; it'll probably be a last minute decision. i wanna go, but not sure i can get everything to line up perfectly that weekend since Frank and I are doing the Audi event at Summit Point on Sunday.

if I do go, not sure what car I'll take, may depend on weather

Congrats, Paul, on the sweet ride.
