Lol. Dude, the impact on gas would be negligible.

Um, yes? That’s a weird thing to ask. Like, “Do people really like blue? I mean cmon, I like red.”
Some people like soft pillows, some people like hard pillows. All personal preference.
You know who you’re talking about here
I like a firm ride myself. Its amazing how quiet and smooth this BMW is even though its old and has high miles. I will probably buy "performance" snow tires just so I will not loose any handeling performance.
Probably will be replacing shocks/springs also because the fronts were already done by PO and I want to restore ride quality.
Welcome to owning a German car.
Id consider buying something newer with a payment down the road. Does not sound like they make manuals anymore tho..
Test drive one with the new automatic. They are really good and can be manually shifted. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.
I love my ZF 8 speed. First auto car I've owned since 2004 and for a daily cruiser it has not disappointed me
Randomly was browsing this morning and saw these tires in stock. Called Discount tire to verify and he called Michelin to verify also cuz he didn’t think they were in stock either but they were so I placed an order online. Because you can only order online or in store now. WTF

I guess I got lucky. Nothing like this has been available since I started looking.

My budget brakes finally came in. I think they were backorder since July. $379 for rotors, pads, and all related sensors all around from ECS tuning. Not bad.
Thought I was getting a German brand but they are made in China.

Not bad I always put Zimmermann on my older BMWs. Quality just seems a tad better then the other options. You may pay a little extra but not much. Think they are manufactured in Germany as well.
Ordered some Powerstop Z16 Ceramic pads from carparts.com
I remember I had powerstop pads on my trans am and was happy with them.
Ron Vogel You have any experience with those MEYLE rotors? Not sure I want to spend money shipping those back. Also only 2 brake sensors for front/rear? Not one on every wheel?
