Checking in

Just thought I'd check in and say hi.. I'm at Tulley BMW right now, having an M wheel installed on my 330. They have wireless internet here, so I decided to bring my laptop.

Hey CJ those M wheels are super nice but don't you need winter tires on now? Yep I bring my laptop everywhere now just in case there's wireless signal. Post some pics!

I'm just glad to see that I'm not the only one addicted to "connectivity." I take my laptop EVERYWHERE, including my dealership when I go in for service. It IS a nice touch for the dealership to offer wireless. If you have to spend a couple hours there, it just makes the time go by so much faster when you can log on and cruise the web or chat with your buddies.

Post some pics of the M-wheel, CJ.

D'uh!! Pardon me CJ, with the layoff I've been a bit rusty.
Now you're styling my young friend.

Today was a busy driving day for me, so I got plenty of driving time in with the new wheel. I had to drive home from the dealer, then to and from Manchester.. In total, about 120 miles. I LOVE the M-Wheel! I can't believe I didn't do this sooner! The wheel feels awesome, and it really makes the whole car feel different! I felt like I was driving a completely new car! I have to say that I recommend this mod to ANYONE! It's amazing! I got the wheel with the tri-color stitching. I'll post pics tomorrow, once theres some light.

Shucks, no way in hell I'm giving up the heated wheel in the X5, they need to make a heated sport wheel that could be retrofitted to older cars Anyone try that yet?
