Looks great Justin. Safe travels buddy! Say, 1 M Mike (Original owner of my ZHP) lives just to the east of Indianapolis, IN. Wonderful fellow if you need some good BMW company in the area.
Man that blue is such a nice color.
Safe travels.
Third fill up.

So many bugs!!!
Also, popped my first code.
I have a feeling it's related to the gas cap... good thing I brought my laptop for diagnosis.
Also checked into my hotel in Lincoln. I will be headed to KC, MO tomorrow. I know Steve is a resident...any others near by?
EDIT: Code is Mass Air Flow related. I imagine PO has a Krap and Nasty in the air box. I shall inspect after dinner :)

Wow, that looks good.
No kidding. I want one
Edit: And congrats on the new car! I love mystic
J dawg, duct tape the intake boot is probably whats needed.
It was a MAF sensor issue. If it was a lean condition I would suspect that the boot was torn.

Justin, I have a new maf that Stu gave me at the meet for free. I sold my car so can't use it. It's yours for the price of shipping if you want it. PM me if you would like it.
Btw congrats on the car!
Thanks Chris!!
Hopefully it just needs a good cleaning, but I will take you up on the offer should the issue persist.
Good stuff Justin. Glad the trip is going well.
I've got exams in the morning and studying to do during the day but hit me up otw through town if ya like.... I will be south of I-70.... You will have to excuse the state of my car.... Finals week and time in the clinic has left it somewhat unkept as of late

Wish I could be part of a KC area meet-up, but I'm at work from about noon to 10. Boulevard tour always has some interesting experimental brews for tasting. And besides the standard KC area BBQ legends like Arthur Bryant and Gates and Sons, there are many other less known but unbelievably good BBQ joints. Oklahoma Joe's is always incredible, especially the original gas station location. And for something completely different, Woodyard offers an atmosphere like no other, and a bowl of chili topped with burnt ends that just might make you move here.
So what's the update? How's the trip going?
Good morning all.
Took me forever to get to sleep. So I watched NYY vs BOS until 11 here. Its now 7 am and will be grabbing breakfest and traveling 3 hours south to the brewery.
As far as the bbq joints go, you guys rock. I'm a North Carolina boy at heart but always down for some chili and burnt ends.
Steve, I will be giving you a call when I leave Boulevard. If you wanna grab a bite to eat before studying. Maybe even adjust my back lol!

Great to see you again, Stu.

Wish I could have joined you guys yesterday, but next best thing is OK Joes for lunch today

Thanks for sharing your travels with us, Justin. For me, it brings a lot of smiles remembering my road trip home with my new ZHP this spring
Looks great Jeff!
I made it to Morgantown :)
From Indy I averaged 33.3 mpg. Before getting into town, I was projected to exceed 500mi on the tank. This car has been expertly maintaned. I wish the front end was in better condition, but I got what I paid for.
Here is a pic I took along the way. Needed to stop to grab a 5 hour energy after lunch. I just wanted to pass out lol.

Continued safe travels.

Go Justin GO!
That's one awesome trip!
I'm loving this trip. Makes me want to buy a car far away and drive it back. Anyone want to sell me an E46 Touring?
Marc,
My old AW 325iT ZSP, 5 spd, Dinan resides in Minnesota somewhere with about 70-75K miles by now, that would be a nice little road trip. The current owner likes it but is torn because it was a no sunroof car (FTW), he'd rather have the roof opening and he continues to search for one.
