Very cool trip and awesome photos.  Keep 'em coming.  I'll wager one of your pictures makes it into a calendar. 

 

Thanks for sharing.

Certainly not as exciting as rolling around Europe but exciting to me to get a good fit on a patch

That's awesome.  My buddy didn't even know they made that car in the non-M platform.  Seems like some of the best BMW cars got built by people doing what they weren't supposed to.  I, apparently, have a serious soft spot for them. 

 

We had a z4m coupe for a bit, with the s54.  The car was absolutely mega in every way, except no room for a dog.  Once we moved and got a dog, car had to go- just no room for the dog. :shrug emoji

The two cars I'll never sell...  The clownshoe is a non-M.  Of course it's a 2002 Z3 Coupe ?

Drove around this Blesle area of France today…The pictures say it all…

I finished rebuilding my heater box. When it came out of the car I discovered some surface rust where the old seal was. Cleaned that up and repainted.  Re-install is delayed while the POR15 dries. Might as well golf today while I wait.

They say there’s a Loire white in your immediate future!

Got some plated parts in. Got my dizzy back from Jeff at Advanced. Picked up my blasted and powder coated front subframe and misc.

Nah, it's ok.  I'm better with slower cars.  And after the z4mc, did an e46 wagon, which sucked.  It was terrible.  So bought a hail damaged e46m3 and transplanted the whole lot into the wagon, with bushings, Ohlins, wheels, more.  Then it was ok.    But like I said, I'm better with slower cars.  And the dog has value- he's chased several bears out of the yard, watches out for my wife, and we had these the other evening... Normal house cat for scale, and a mountain lion ass.  I know he'd put that dude in a tree.  And also why I don't have a hand-bag sized dog...

Went to Cars and Coffee, then did an oil change and guibo inspection before I head up highway 1 for Bay Area 02. Looking good

Imagine all the parts you can fit inside the trunk of the car, pop into Manders Autogas, W&N etc and your trip would be paid for???

Today we drove the Baur over / through the Pyrenees mountains to Barcelona, Spain…we have rolled a little over 3200 miles on this adventure across Europe… feel lucky when you fill up, gas here is $6.61 a gallon!
