Oh dang, I was wrong on both counts. Thought the first ones were original ZHP M135 wheels. And obviously I mistook the OZs for CHs. Too many wheels to keep track of

Jeez, I'm losing my mind! They're BBS CHs, not OZs! (I edited my post to correct that).

Ok, so I'm not COMPLETELY losing it. Yet

I'm going to be 72 this March. I've reached the point where I've become aware of the beginnings of my mental decline. It's only little things so far but I'm aware of it and it kind of freaks me out. I used to be able to calculate my gas mileage in my head to the tenth, and do it in 30 seconds while driving. I used to remember all my credit card numbers, but no more.

Beautiful car!
Showroom floor condition...
Taking a tangent for a sec. I'm 10 years younger and also feel those small declines. Used to remember EVERYONE'S names ALL the time. Even had investigators come to me and ask who the people were in security cam photos because I knew them all. Now, having trouble remembering names of close friends and neighbors
. Must be all the lead from firearms training.Hey! I still use Zaino. I remember long conversations with Sal Zaino (who would actually answer the phone) way back when if I had questions. Still good stuff.Two flashbacks in one post - Zaino AND Roadfly

Is that a Charcoal grey color? Beautiful car and koodos to you for keeping it spotless after 22 years. Guaranteed that BMW makes you smile every time you drive it.
BMW calls it "steel gray metallic". It does makes me smile when I drive it.
Having an E46 and E90 to compare with, it's amazing how much I can feel the weight difference between them. The E46 is about 400 pounds lighter. It's "turn in" is instantaneous.

I'm truly impressed. My 2003 Civic EX is shot on the outside (I'm the original owner). But the interior still looks very good and the engine bay is easy to clean up and I do it every 6 months or so.
Exterior paint has faded and peeled. I had to park outside in extreme midwestern temps (100F summer, 0F winter) since 2010 and it's taken a toll. 185k and still mechanically reliable, but a bit of an eyesore anymore.

I’ve got a thing for dark grey BMW’s from yesteryear, as well. Mine is clean. But, not on the same level as yours.
And yeah, as mentioned earlier in this thread, she’s… thicc. 3,650lbs.

Haha.. ya. The poster was a retired guy and loved to detail his e46 and later e92 m3.Two flashbacks in one post - Zaino AND Roadfly
Beautifully kept example. That’s some dedication for sure
