    Not sure it is the color as much as it is the design. I do like the newer 5 series, but don't love it. The LCI E90 is now near the top of my list after seeing the latest offerings.

These hot Texas summers can be hard on cars and I definitely didn't want to get stuck on the side of the road spewing coolant.
    Nice. I finished mine today too.

    I love it when my Imola touches me too. There was a random IR M3 a few blocks up last week, it took my breath away every day I passed it. I knew it was there, but it still star struck me everyday (3-4 days in a row).

    Sean....as for me, I know my next BMW will be an E60 ///M. I have plenty of time in which to choose my next beast (going to get my daughter through college first)...I blame this on Kris (S85FTW) because after riding in his beast I could never get the sound of that S85 out of my mind....and that Interlagos Blue....I know this would complete my stable....having an ///M5 Interlagos Blue...

    I know I will always have an Imola BMW as long as I live...I can't get over staring at mine after having a good deep detail. The depth of that red....

    Not the bolts but the backing of the pulley on the water pump.

    Interesting. I didn't find it terrible to get apart and my old water pump was rusty. Pulley was still in great shape though. New water pump is all shiny.

    I wish I had thought of anti-seize. My plastic one was stuck on there pretty good and I had to lever it off. Maybe I'll get a wild hair up my ass in the next year or so and yank them off before they are frozen and lube them up. Right now I'm just glad to be done!

    It's a borla exhaust that was installed by the previous owner. I was thinking about changing it for a dual borla tip, but the look of it has really started to grow on me

    So the pump has 12v and is priming the line.

    I bought 2 gal of 92oct and just filled her up. Somehow I need to force all of the denser water out of the bottom of the tank where its sucking from. Would removing the feed line from the filter and priming the line a few times exponge a good bit of the water?

    From a GS3, this was sent.
