Sunset@Ventura Harbor/Pics Of The Schwarz Ti

[cooljess76]

It was a gorgeous day in Socal and since my car was still detailed from BimmerFest'07 I decided to snap a few pics. Some of them came out dark because I didn't want to use the flash and screw up the magnificent sunset in the background.

Enjoy:

Anyway, I hope you guys like them. I'll take more photos this evening @ Ventura Pier.

well, atleast I managed to get one shot in before the old people in an SUV took the parking spot next to me:

Blurry shot of my buddy Jesse J's '07 WRX against my 10 year old Bimmer:

Notice the CEL in the pic below:

Wuts up Jess? Was cool to meet you, nice pics... But we definately have to get a group for that canyon run we talked about, some time in June. I met some dudes with ti's that would probably be down to roll. Any locals from Cali from SD to SF, or where ever should get together. I would be awsome

Nice spot for the pics! The car looks good so keep the black color on it.

Thanks for the compliments guys. The shots could have came out much better if I was a better photographer and used a tripod. My camera is a 5 megapixel Casio Exilim EX-S500 and it has a ton of built in features that I haven't a clue what they actually do.

Pettit, I love the ocean too but to be honest, I can't afford to live here anymore. $600k will get you a tiny condo or a 40+ year old house. New homes are being crammed into housing tracks and start at around 1.5million. And the gas prices are just ridiculous @ $3.69 a gallon! I spent 10 years overseas in the Navy and returned to find my hometown over-populated with yuppies. You can't even surf here anymore, it's so crowded.

Jimmy, ditto, it was nice talkin to you too at BFest. Your Hellrot Clubsport is very nice. I'm definitely looking forward to a canyon run/Socal Ti meet. Hugo's still putting his car together and June might be a better timeframe than late May. Especially since BFest just went down and most of us are still stoked on that enormous event. BTW, I hope your daughter has a very happy B-Day!

M3 KILL3R, I'm running e39 style 42's. I did run into some fitment issues but with a little tweaking, all is well. They do make them for the e36/z3 but the lips aren't as wide. "Viper" is running a set on his soon to be m50 powered Alpine Ti and they look pretty sweet. You could do a staggered setup, but I wouldn't recommend it. Mine are 17x8's and if my camber wasn't so bad, they'd still rub despite my rear fenders being rolled. BTW I'm running z3 roadster H&R Race springs on stock shocks/struts.

StealthBimmer, Don't worry I'm staying Schwarz for the time being. I have a couple rust issues that need to be dealt with and a respray is in my future plans, but an engine swap is probably going to occur first.
