View Full Version : My Ti TiRX8 08-08-2003, 12:52 AM Sorry for the wait. Here's my Ti. What a beauty!!:D TiRX8 08-08-2003, 12:56 AM Here's another view. Taken after a coat of Zymol. Gotta love it!! 73JPS 08-08-2003, 01:54 AM Congratulations! Exciting, eh? Looks great.... You get the NAV? It looks like you've got the roof (a bit hard to tell, though...) TiRX8 08-08-2003, 03:06 AM It's as fun as my BMW 540i. It does have the moon roof. However I did not go for the navi. If I need directions I'll just buy a map! :D Doctorr 08-08-2003, 03:13 AM Looks even shinier than when it was in the showroom! I think those 'exhaust finisher' chrome thingies would really compliment the back of any Titanium! Good choice and congrats, TiGuy! . . . doc TiRX8 08-08-2003, 03:24 AM Thanks doc! Congrats to you too. I love the metallic red. How are you liking the car? Have you "broken" it in yet? Doctorr 08-08-2003, 03:52 AM No, not broken in yet, just cracked 1000kilometers. Had an airport run today, so after I dropped them off, I stopped in Leduc to order the 'Alarm Shock Upgrade' thingy.....got a decent price - $48. The instructions on the forum made it seem simple to do, but I can screw anything up! Your Ti looks awesome in the daylight, how are you liking it? I can see the 'bimmer' in the background - how does it compare? I am finding I have grown quite lazy in the years since my last manual tranny, I am not going down thru the gears as I stop, it's "6th to neutral", and I am now fond of a good fast run up to 4th gear, then right into 6 for 'cruise'! Sadly I will never get even close to this cars limits! Speaking of limits.... I thought it was time for a brief burst of full throttle, and briefly saw 200kph on a private bit of the airport road! Smooth as a turbine! . . . doc TiRX8 08-08-2003, 11:52 AM I'm sitting at about 1300km. I haven't really pushed it hard yet. The bimmer feels alot heavier and has that head jarring torque. The 540i feels a little more solid. Ti grey was the colour I wanted from day one. I like it, at times it has a "bluish" tint to it. So you stopped by to meet our buddies at Leduc. Did Rick tell you the story about his nose? Did they give you any goodies? I was wondering if they threw in any goodies when you purchased the car. Also, what is the alarm shock sensor? Pete 08-11-2003, 10:37 AM I've pushed my 8 to the limit already. It has 1000KM. I figure the engine was built for racing..... and thats just what I'll do!!! ..lol brothervoodoo 08-11-2003, 11:01 AM Congratulations on the new 8! Grey was not my first choice but I'm happy with my decision! TiRX8 08-14-2003, 01:55 PM Originally posted by brothervoodoo Congratulations on the new 8!
