Allow myself to introduce.......myself

[onewhippedpuppy]

Hey all, just thought I'd say hi to those that don't post on BF.c. I recently traded my '87 944 Turbo for a '95 540 6 speed from a BF.c member, and I love it. This is an excellent site, I love the fact that it's all E34. I live in Wichita, KS, and have recently met up with this bunch, just to get in a free plug. www.wichitabmw.com

I love my car, I'll post a few pics tomorrow when I take some new ones. It has a Jim C. chip, Bilsteins, and a B&B catback. It also has the ever so desirable Nikasil option ;) . It was a Cali car until last year and 10k ago, and runs perfect, so I'm not too stressed about it. Upcoming projects include rebuilding the front suspension, oxygen sensors and cats, and new wheels. Later!

Welcome Matt, this is usually a friendly place. Hope you enjoy.

"usually" hehehe

Didn't you buy that 540 from Chattanooga. If I hadn't just bought my 525i several months ago I would have been all over that. Get some pics up.

Yeah, I'm sure it's the same car. It was BicycleFreak's car from BF.c. I'll try to get some new pics tomorrow, all I have is old ones that aren't any good.

"It also has the ever so desirable Nikasil option"

Not so desirable, but not as much an issue these days if the damage wasn't already done.

I was just being a smartass. It runs and idles great, so if it has any issues I don't really care, I'm happy. It was a Cali car nearly all it's life, those seem to be by far the least prone to problems. I figure if it ever goes bad I'll just swap in a Alusil shortblock, good excuse to refresh the heads and gaskets anyway. I've gone through a lot of cars in the last few years ('70 911T, '99 A4, '87 951), and I think I've now found the one that I was looking for, it's a keeper!

I think you are going to fit in here quite well. Welcome. :)

I just got to ask, how did you pick that online name? You seem to have a lot more spunk than your online name suggests.

It's a long story, as can be expected from something so odd. I was the first of my friends to get married (25 now), and so I of course took the usual crap for being whipped. Let's face it, all married men are whipped, we just won't admit it. But I figured, what the hell, I'll embrace my whipped-ness. It didn't hurt that it annoyed the hell out of my wife, that just made it more fun. So after I got married I changed my email address to onewhippedlittlepuppy at hotmail, and it kind of snowballed from there.

I also think of it as my little protest to all the people that are virtual badasses on the internet. In the real world they may be 16 year old pushovers, but put them behind the computer and they become 6'5" bodybuilders with 12" dicks, and their Ford Escort changes to a Ferrari 430. That kind of crap drives me nuts, people on forums saying things like "I'll kick your ass". No, you won't. You'll sit behind that computer because you're afraid of the real world, and everything it entails, and if you were physically confronted you'll run like the puberty wrought child you are. Now go do something productive, like look at porn. :D

That's my rant for the day, now I bet you're sorry you asked.

[Gayle]

Actually I am delighted that I asked.

[bullyd]

Thanks for the replies guys, I have a pic in my signature line now, and I posted in the virtual auto show thread if anybody would like to see more (it's not all that impressive).
