F*ck Caltrans.

I bought the Mercedes in OCTOBER and have put under 1500 miles on it. SINCE OCTOBER. This is from the guy that does 22k mi/yr.

So now that I finally have it running right....what happens? Somehow the filling (which they did a terrible job with, I might add) disappeared from an epic pothole in a construction area between when I drove OVER it at 8.30 this am and 1pm when I drove INTO it coming back from lunch. It's damned near impossible to avoid. Now the front in is shaking like hell above 60. I'm hoping it's just a wheel weight, but who knows. Instead I get to spend my day off on Monday at the shop....again.

I like the DS2 & DS1s, I dont think I've ever seen a pic of them I really like on an e30..


And, I found a guy with 5 LTWs for $600obo in Chicago. How do you guys think those would look? Any of you possess mad p-shop skills?
