I'm glad I stopped in here today. I signed up for the one at Brian Harris for the 328 vs Lexus IS250 thursday, then 328 vs Audi friday at Peake, and 335 saturday at Peake. So what are these drives like? Is there like a little autocross course or something setup so you get to actually beat on the cars?

I guess I'll find out. Mini cooper and yokohama tires put on a driving event a couple years ago in houston where they brought out 6 or 7 mini's all equipped with different tires from the lineup. paid $20 and ran as many of the cars as many times as you wanted all day. there were driving instructors to ride along and give you pointers if you wanted them to. It was good autocross practice, and a lot of fun. From what you're saying, it doesn't seem like this will be the same, but I might get a chance to scare a couple salesman. that'll make it worth it.

Was having a great time at the French Quarter Festival in NOLA until some POS DB decided to smash my passenger side rear window.
Gouged a large hunk out of the upholstery and dented up all the trim around the window. Also tried to break the passenger side front window but was unsuccessful although they did chip the glass and dent the trim around that window. And I was parked in a hotel parking garage. Going into the BH body shop next week. I'll be in some 4 cylinder POS rental for two weeks. I'll post pics later. BTW, BH BMW has a 335is on the Airline Hwy lot if anyone is interested.

Damn doc, sorry to hear that...
My wheels are finished! Andy at MORR sent me this picture today, they look so good I can't wait to get them back on. Hopefully I will have them by the end of next week.

Holy crap that F10 M5 wreck on the front page. Really a testament of safety right there, and that F10 is a HOSS.
186mph to zero in a matter of 100 yards including multiple flips side to side barrier to embankment collisions etc. etc. An entire section + wheel of the rear suspension was ripped off. I hope they have a good recovery

Coulda bought my wheels. instead of ordering some...Would definitely sell for the right price. IMO the 111s don't look good on e90 - e92 at all...Cant wait to see it though.
