Hey guys,

I just got an email that my TT was selected to be a part of the 2009 Greenwhich Concours d'Elegance in Greenwhich, CT. Its amazing that an 8-series BMW will be at home in the field with $100k - $1M vehicles.

Here were my submission pics:

Dope 8, your 8 will be right at home with those exotics ;). I will try and make it this year!!!

Beautiful Glacier Blue E31 man. Plus its a factory Dinan model, your very lucky. Congradulations for the invite and come home with something:D

Congrats and good luck!

well done...... take and post loads of pickys:eyecrazy:eyecrazy:eyecrazy:eyecrazy:buttroc k

Neat! That's only a little bit of a drive for me so it's tempting to check it out.

Question JR... you ever caught any grief from the man in NJ about the front license plate delete?

Also, if you want to borrow a warning triangle and polishing cloth for a complete rear toolkit let me know. Can't have you losing style points...... 8^)

congrats!

Ill be there in spirit Just to be there is a big enough deal

was wondering... where are the MAF's?

Whats the date, I might actually make it to this one . . .

It is sad that I am from G-wich yet have not been . . . :(

Or get Wuffer to get a triangle for you - about $30-40.

don't forget the glove box lamp.
and all manuals. make sure the rear windows roll up without noise

JRW,

You need a read Tow hook cover plate piece. The car looks gorgeous though. I always loved the Glacier Blue.

I have the Euro triangle which fits in the toolbox that DOTs won't, it's why they're not there.... if Wuff's gottem great.

koenig d- I always take pics where ever I go... I'll be sure to post them up!

Hobz- I have heard that this is an amazing show. The American cars are on Sat and Euro/exotics are on Sun.

rcrad6653- I don't drive it much honestly. I keep the plate in the front windsheild in case, but I have never been pulled over. Of course I had to put it on to pass inspection. It was just secured by 1 screw! The DD 8 has the front plate on it.

carspainc.com- The mafs are under the headlights. Ill take some more pics of the entire setup this weekend and post them up for all to see.

Mr 4500 RPM- June 5-7, 2009. There is an auction that sells $$$$ cars on Fri, American cars on Sat, and Euro/exotics on Sun. What a fun weekend of cars and boats... there is a yacht show going on at the same time!

cantbl8- The tool kit is complete including triangle, but it doesnt have that little cloth... was that stock from the factory?

Ahmed303- I already have it, but it needs to be painted... its on the to-do list. I have a brand new computer display to be installed too. Im tempted to uninstall the custom stereo as well.

I have the complete front and rear euro Csi brake setup that still needs to be installed. I almost have everything I need to do euro lights... headlights, ftps, and rear fogs.

If I do rip out the custom stereo, Ill install a ///M business cd player with trunk cd changer delete panels. That should be just about everything!! :buttrock

The cloth was indeed original equipment. There was only one retailer I found that managed to get five of them from Germany (Maximillian), as they have been discontinued for some time.
He wanted $113.00 ea. uuuhh.... no. Patient scrounging from Europe has gotten 2 new ones with extra Heyco tools to boot (no pun intended)

Maybe one of the fortunate individuals can loan JR a cloth for the weekend? :D

I still have my cloth :), have never used it!
