Hey everyone! My friends and I went up some mountain roads for some canyon carving with my CLK500 with a muffler delete and my friend's 135i with a ton of mods. What do you guys think (It was my first time canyon carving, BTW)?

That looks like fun.... My SIL and I have been talking about taking on the Blue Ridge Mountain road in the spring or summer. The wives frown when we discuss it... He has an M3...

Would loved to have heard more of the audio of the engines and the downshifts in your video.

Looks like fun. Except the part with the bikers. :/ one fast turn in a corner can end badly. Not sure how fast you where taking turns. be safe.

Yeah it's fun you just have to be careful! It was my first time going and I was pretty nervous but it is a good experience too. It's nice to just cruise along sometimes and on the road just stop and enjoy the views! Yeah that biker part was kinda scary too but I wasn't driving in that scene and we always think of safety first!

Nice. Glad to see you not crossing over the double yellow in the turns. Clean job!

Yeah there were too many blind turns so it was a huge risk to even try to do that! Lol

Heh. I love the canyons.
I live in the Valley and work in Santa Monica, so I take Mulholland Hwy to Old Topanga to PCH and back almost every day.
If traffic is bad I go via Stunt road.

I only have H&R sways f&r and Conti DW tires. I can't count how many people Ive smoked because they don't know how to operate the round thing in front of them inside the car.

What kind of speeds were you guys getting?

looks like FUN. would have preferred the video with out the music so we can hear your exhaust =]

also, next time blur your licence plate if you do put vids up on youtube with you speeding

i checked out the 135 for my mom a while back and honestly hated the car. the interior felt like my 2010 civic. lol

The legal speed limit.

The interior of the 135i is like a classic BMW; it's not really high tech, it's focused on the driving, but I like a little tech in my car too

Idk about tickets, just to be on the safe side.

Also, with some good tires and suspension (sway, springs, shocks)
You can rip through those turns as well )

And what radar are you using.i want the passport max

kb24forlife24

I have stock everything and my shocks are bad (i was driving with bad shocks haha). The radar detector is a Beltronics 955 or 995 I can't remember because it's my friend's but it's around $200.
