The tentative plan is on Saturday, March 25. Dyno day meet - you do not have to dyno if you do not want to. Should be a lot of fun to see what kind of figures people are putting down.
After the dyno event, plan is to grab some food and then roll to the Eat, Sleep, Car Meet near Katy @ 6 PM.

Spotted a red RCF last night (3/13/2017) at 4:49 PM on Westheimer and Beltway 8. It looked good. Anyone in here?

Hey all - New Houston owner here. Traded in my F10 M5 and picked up a 2017 Atomic Silver GSF about a week ago. I'm in the Downtown area.

Welcome! What is your name so I can add more detail to the front page?
Also what made you want to trade a F10 M5 for the GSF? The new M5 are beasts!

Thanks! My name is Justin - appreciate you adding me.

Always been a BMW guy but they have changed direction compared to the previous generations...less bespoke engines, softer suspensions, quieter... I can't blame them because that's what the mass market wants but they drive more like old AMGs than M cars. Still really nice but just not my thing. The GSF is no doubt slower but the suspension is more balanced and composed. I'm still getting used to the steering feel (which is different to me and my only real complaint) but I feel more connected with the driving experience and generally speaking, it's just more fun.

Awesome. Glad to add you Justin. Hope to meet you in person sometime in the near future. Any mods planned? I've met the other two white GSF in this group a couple times. You should see their setup.
Glad to know that the GSF is more fun! I will definitely invite you to the next meet.

That sounds good to me - I'd definitely be down for a meet.

I'm interested in modding...nothing in particular planned yet but have been searching the forums to familiarize myself with what's available!
