Glad to be here! Didn't know this existed!!

[Radarcontact]

My name is Darrin, and I am brand new here. This is awesome, and I am really looking forward to using this site to get some great advice, and if I can, provide some as well!

I am the second owner of my car, I bought it a few years ago with 22k on the clock. It has ~53k on it now.
It's in (almost) perfect condition, and I still have to look back at it every time I walk away from it...it is a gorgeous, timeless design!

I have:
Replaced the amp/speakers, added custom sub setup, (stock HU for now), CF antenna
Added Grom USB and XM
A/C-S Front strut brace
Clear reflectors
Billet pedal set
Billet oil cap
Carbon window tint

Working on:
Replacing tires (Conti ExtremeContact DWS?)
Replacing brake pads (Hawk Ceramics?)
Installing my new BMW drilled rotors
Replacing worn suspension components (BMW OEM?)

I am always open to others' opinions!

Yep. I can see them. You might want to sign up for Photobucket -- a free site where you can host pictures. I find it easier to post pictures that way.

Love natural brown interior. Same interior that's in my car. It's one of the best (biased opinion, of course).

Hmmm. only 1 picture is working for me. I'll have to check back a little later. BTW, I usually end in Pensacola once or twice a year for work, it's one of my favorite places to go.

a few of the sub setup. First, without the anti-theft "the dudes got a system" cover, then one incognito...

Very nice, RC.

Welcome to the gang!!

Your car is absolutely perfect! Nice pics and mods! :)

ATC...23 years now!

Nice. Been flying on and off for almost 20 years. Always had a lot of respect for ATC guys, especially in the crazy airspace up here.

Your car looks awesome, btw.

WELL, welcome to the family :D

Roflol...why is it that no one ever fails to see the tiny sliver-of-wife in that pic??! Lol

Yeah, that's my wife Roxy. She is a babe. I'm a lucky guy! ;-p
