This weekend will probably be a good one! First Saturday of the month is when the exotics come out to play. Weather (subject to change) looks like it will be awesome too! If I can get up to Franklin and back before my sons soccer game, I will be there.
We had taken my beast back in Sept or oct, and havent been back since i had to have my engine replaced.. Shes back up and running now so hopefully we can make it up for the next exotic meet. My other half has an E46 M3 so we may caravan out that way so both cars are there.
Chris, the mechanic at Treehouse who did all the work on my M is now at Lance's Foreign Car Repair. He did some work on my X5 last week. They are located by the fairgrounds behind Mrs. Grissom's. 615-964-5088
Not much action in Nashville I see...typical. It's too bad really. Seems like we don't care about the finer things in life. We need to get more going on here in Middle TN. I'm trying to get a couple friends to come with me to the Dragon's tail. Has anyone else been? I haven't yet, but would like to toward the end of this October/November.
Our River City Bimmers chapter of the BMWCCA is making a trip to the tail in Nov. We are passing thru your neck of the woods if you would be interested in linking up with us somewhere, I believe we are taking 840 around Nashville. I think there are 20+ cars from our chapter planning on taking the trip.
At the very least I'd like to do a meet and greet at Elmington Park someday. It's off 440 at West End. Parking lot at the Park and lots of parking behind the school by the soccer field. I'm open to suggestion. Kevin
Guess I'm out of the loop. I'd definitely like to come with you in November. You will literally be driving right by since I live right off 840.
I just bought my 740i so I haven't been looking around just yet for chapters, but I need to get back into it again. Thanks for the heads up. I'll look into this chapter. Meanwhile how can I find out more about the trip you guys are taking? Who do I need to get in contact with?
just join this group, my Mrs. (drives E46 M3) runs the page and will approve ya. If you pm me your email ill send you details as well. e_101@hotmail.com
Do any of you guys have the INPA/Ediabas/NCSExpert for our cars? I had it and could never get it to work. I really need to clear this electric steering wheel lock malfunction message that I am getting. It's driving me crazy!
I just bought this and waiting for it to ship. I should be getting it next week. I haven't used it before, but there are many links out there explaining it all. I'll let you know once I have it set up. Where abouts are you? I'm in the Boro
I'm off of Franklin Road going out toward Franklin. I'm a little over a mile past Veterans blvd. How far down Church street? I've been out that way a couple times toward shelbyville...beautiful. Church st isn't that far from me.
Oh to answer the above question. I ordered the USB scanner and disc from ebay. It's pretty difficult to figure out unless you know computers. You need windows 7, so I'm getting my friend to let me use his laptop and see if that works. He tried on his wife's and we had a tough time getting it. And he knows computers and software. I'll let you know when we get it
Hey all. I picked up an 06 M5 a few months back. I'm considering modifying the suspension (springs or coil overs). Does anybody in the Nashville have a modified E60 M5 that I can take a ride in before I mod it up? I hate to spend all the $$$ to not be pleased with the results... thanks
Anyone still have their M5s? I have an E39 and a coworker has a E60. We are the only two M's in the Clarksvegas area.. Looking to meet other enthusiasts.
That's a sweet looking E60! They are really starting to grow on me.. Have any of you guys took your M to a dyno? I'm out of town until early July and have some little maintenance things to freshen up. But I would love to dyno my beast and see where it's at.. I have some minor mods and plan on getting an ESS kit sometime this year. So a baseline would be sweet. Maybe we could set up a meet or like cars n coffee? I think that's still popular with the Nashville enthusiasts.
Thinking of heading up for Cars & Coffee in the morning. Anyone else going to be there? Should be a huge turn-out being that it will be the first one of the month and weather is supposed to be decent.
Mine will be the TiAg E39 M5 with the "For Sale" sign on the dash.
Hey all. Just moved from SoCal to Knoxville area (Friendsville) this week. Will need to know if/when/where any meets happen, and where to get the Beast worked on. TY. Liking the area a lot so far. Haven't explored much yet. I see there's a hot-rod event at the Foothills Mall from April through summer, so I suspect I'll do that when it starts. Will do Gatlinburg moonshine tasting tomorrow.
glad to see another e39 m5 owner in the area!! The Foothills mall show is pretty good and goes all summer. There is always the European Auto Garage Cars and Coffee events, they have a poker urn coming up the first weekend of April on the first and then the Harpers Cars and Coffee on sunday april 30th at West Town Mall. They both have them going all summer usually at least one a month. Hit them up on facebook and you can keep track of them. I do all my work my self, used to work at Grayson and European Auto Garage and a few others in town. I'm only in town on the weekends and would be more than happy to work on it then at my shop in Lenoir City but i highly recommend European Auto Garage and Kadunza. Have fun in Gburg and just hit me up if you need anything. Don'y know if ill have my m5 back together by the poker run but ill have one of my bimmers or my ctsv wagon out there. Hit up the Dragon, foothills pky and the skyway. you can do a loop that hits all three. Its an awesome drive.
Met neighbor last night who works for UT. And has a boat. I guess they all have a flotilla that goes to the games across the lake/river here. Soooo...guess I'll be learning words to Rocky Top.
Saw PSU smoke them in 93 Fiesta Bowl. May be best to not mention that.
