Had a great day out today , still have the goosebumps from the sound of that V8 exhaust . My TPMS light went out after the initial drive so I assume it was on because I had all the wheels off for new tires painting etc .
Only other niggly issue was the keyfob sometimes doesn't lock the doors , unlock works ok but lock is hit or miss . Maybe a new battery needed ?
Or maybe the contact is dirty in the keyfob .

I'm afraid this thread is going to become too much like a d1ck-measuring contest.

You have quite the collection, gentlemen. As soon as my RS6 gets off jackstands I'll take a pic of the two together.

^^^^ LOL

But seriously, this is also the reason I don't put a list of "owned" (or worse yet, "previously owned/sold") cars in my signature. I think it comes off too much as "Did I tell you how rich I am?" for my tastes. Of course, I'm also the guy who drives a '90s Miata to work every day and whose own family and co-workers don't even know that he owns exotic cars.

Perhaps... I get what you are saying but there's a difference between posting this kind of stuff on general social media vs. a board of car enthusiasts, who (in this case) all own Aston Martins. I took these pictures for my man cave. BTW - I only drive the BMW to work and only a handful of people at work know about the other cars or the airplane. I'm a pretty low key guy in general but since this is a forum about these cars I figured it might be appreciated without too much of the perception you describe.

That said, I can see your point.

I can see that, but I've never looked at it that way. I've always seen it as a way to help sort out comments between those with first-hand experience and those that are just repeating what they've heard or are purely speculating. Kinda like those people that use Forza video games as the basis of an argument with no real-world experience with a given vehicle, which I've literally seen on more than a couple of occasions... it's just... sad.

Again, I'm sure it's just me being my usual over-sensitive self. Rudy makes a good point that, of all places, this would be one where it would be acceptable. I guess it's just not my style.
