I wish it was 20k lol... But it's still cheaper than everything I had done (and was planning to do) with the BRZ.

Also, if anyone is interested in my electronic suspension, please PM me. I will be receiving the final production version in a couple of weeks. For obvious reasons, it will be going up for sale.

Yea I've been thinking about selling mine as well, due to that same logic.

From what I remember, deep concave is not possible at the offsets the twins need.

This seems to be the natural progression of so many people... How do you like the M3 so far?

There's really no comparison. The only thing I miss about the BRZ is the size and turning radius. The M3 is an amazing machine and I'm a huge BMW believer now.

A lot of Japanese car enthusiasts stick their noses up at the air at the idea of considering a German performance car. I used to be one, until I bought an E30 BMW. Life changed! Thought I wanted a BRZ when I had my 2012 S4. Bought the BRZ, and within 6 months found myself buying an RS6. It's hard to drive Japanese cars after being spoiled by good European machinery.
