I am hoping to get H&R springs and 20" rims. I promised my fiance i wouldn't switch anything else. Does either of you have suggestions of shops in hk (RC3 - i read about your experience at Monster). It seems a lot of pple like forgestar, is that because of the price value? I know if I go 19" to 20" it has to be good design, because the 528i can't handle unbalanced wheels too well i think.

As for the ducati vs the bmw..it was really funny...for the test drive, the guy said feel free to just "go"...haha...i wasn't very impressed..the only comparable acceleration to motorcycle is really go-kart. But that is ok, this is just more for comfortable and a bit of weekend fun driving to Stanley or up to Peak. Riding the ducati is very hot because i have a full race system on it so it burns my legs....all red after a ride. I will probably move the bike to zhuhai track and keep the car for recreation.

Congrats, 540k isn't that bad. Suggested to go for 20", forgestar is popular for F10 because of it value, but also the quality. Not a bad choice at all. I bet you will swap to H&R very quick as well.

Oh ya, ducati fit well at ZIC. But I knew that sn't cheap if you park/ stored it there. The repair cost is very high at the track too, unless you can fix everything yourself.

Welcome to the forum and enjoy your ride soon.
