    Re: trouble fitting in my car!!!!!!!!!

    STG, judging from the amount and type of posts he's been putting up lately, and the way he looks... I"m guessing he's very young. No grown man I know has arms and legs that skinny with no hint of a 5 o'clock shadow on his chin... and not a wrinkle or sag in sight.

    There fore it's GOT to be his first car.

        Re: trouble fitting in my car!!!!!!!!!

        I tried that Italian technique, its is true that it provides me to be able to recline more and still be in good shape with the wheel. however i really dont like that shuffle deal, i timed my self turning the wheel at a low speed i found i was able to turn the wheel much faster using the hand over hand technique. It may be fine for racing where in general you dont have to make as tight turns as on the street. plus alot of race cars have a tighter turning radius and it takes less turns of the wheel to go to full.. for my car it is 1 1/2 turns like most cars i have seen. As far as my age, i dont know why you guys are trying to give me a hard time about it, if you really care i am almost 17, it says it im my profile and yes it is my first car. I would only buy another BMW, as far as a 5 series, no, i mentioned that i prefer sports coupes, not sports sedans. and dont doubt me just because of my age, you all may have more experience, but you'd be surprised, i could teach you all a thing or two.

            No doubt it's his first car - maybe even his parents BMW. Not sure many 16 year old kids could pay for that nice of a car.

            At first I thought he was one of the new Forum moderators so I checked the Public Profile. It shows that since last Tuesday he has posted 101 times - an average of 17.07 posts per day. Wow... Mike Phillips averaged 14.45 post per day. Sure must have a lot of spare time.

            Hate to admit it, but only when I got to be 21 years old did I realize that my Father was actually smarter than ME. What a surprise. Ah to be 16 again.

            Go easy on him Guys, we were all there at one time.

                      I feel i am being harassed because of my age. Do i post a lot yes, i am new to the car care world and i want to learn, anything wrong with that?
                      So stop giving me a hard time and do i have a lot of time on my hands, probably more then you do, but you shouldnt be talking, you guys have enough time to be giving a teenager a hard time. so stop acting like you have never seen a 16 year old will you.

                        Not too shabby for a first car eh, I got the exact same car as my first car, well almost expect mine is mystic blue. I am about the same physic as you, but little bit shorter. I'm only 5'11, and the only complain I have the head room, I have plently of leg room, often finding myself moving the seat forward.

                          I"m so sorry if you feel my post was a harrassment. STG posed a question and I simply chose to use a bit of deductive reasoning based on your pictures and posts as to what the answer might be. Nothing that I said is harrassing. It was all factual information about the number and types of posts you have made and what men look like as they mature through life. I'm an old lady. I know what old men look like. They don't look like you.

                          After I made my post, I then chose to look at your public profile and realized that my deduction was correct. I do not feel I have made fun of you for being 16.... I just pointed out that it was obvious (even without looking at your profile) that you are.

                          But again, I am sorry if you feel that you were harrassed by my observations. It was not intended to be an antagonistic post.
