I live in the heights and we love it. Close to 610 but it's not noisy, and we're only a few streets away. Everything is close and can't imagine a commute into town every day for work.

I don't really commute per say, the drive is short and enjoyable. I don't need to take I-45 so there's that

From a former Heights person now living in Cypress, we do miss the dining options but love it out here (we have young kids). The housing isn’t any cheaper though

I think the Heights is where West U was 10-15 years ago. It should continue to improve the surrounding areas and go up in value. Just wish they had better public school options. High-rise living is fun, for about a year haha. Elevators get old but it is nice being close to a lot of great dining options. |

Appreciate the wit. I got a good laugh.

Welcome to Screwston OP! BMW of Houston North is a solid dealership. Inner city I use Advantage Midtown, mostly for convenience. It's not an amazing dealership by any stretch of the imagination (nothing like Momentum if anyone remembers that), but if you know the right people there it makes life easier.

Also, can anyone recommend a good shop to install my KW HAS kit? I do not have the time or trust in myself to do it and was quoted an astronomical $2,000+ for install and alignment from another shop. I have a lot of other mods coming so suggestions of a quality shop would be appreciated!

To follow up on my previous post for anyone who cares, I contacted three garages in Houston for a spring kit installation and alignment. European Motor Gruppe was recommended to me and was by far the most reasonably priced. I've listed a breakdown of the two most reasonable bids/shops for anyone in Houston seeking the same work. The third shop, I prefer not to disclose and at over $2,000 it is not realistic anyway. I'm scheduled at EMG on Monday and will post before/after and pics in my build thread when complete.
European Motor Gruppe (EMG) Installation: $750 Alignment: $150 E1 Motorsports (E1) Installation: $1,050 Alignment: $199

I follow @thecarculture on Instagram for local events and tack days. Anthony, the organization's founder, is actually doing the prewire for my new custom home too. Good group of people and some awesome cars.

Hopefully soon I can join you all. My car is currently on a vessel that left December 28th, and my dealership says it should arrive around January 15th. Not sure if that means to the port or the dealership. I am in The Woodlands area, so possibly as we get into February we can set something up.

I worked with Mike, who was also awesome, but met Josh too. Good guys all around over at European Motor Gruppe and very accommodating. I will definitely be going back whenever the AA exhaust arrives.

When's the H-town meet up happening? I moved here from NYC last June. Wife is in the medical field, which brought us here. We'll be here for a while and I'm keen on getting involved in the local car culture.
I have a Miata right now and will be picking up an M3 in a few weeks (hopefully). |

I live further west in Fulshear (west of Katy). I know I'm closer to Austin than Houston, but I'd love to meet up! Jokes aside, I have a M4 Comp on order (wk 4 build, so should be starting production soon). This is my build:
Model: 22DC M4 Competition ×Drive Coupe Color: C31 Portimao Blue Metallic Upholstery: LKKX Kyalami Orange/Black Extended Merino Leather Options: ZDY Driving Assistance Professional Package ZPK Parking Assistance Package ZPX Executive Package 1MB M Drive Professional 1T8 19"/20" M Double-spoke bi-color wheels, style 826 bi-color 3MF M Shadowline Lights 453 Front ventilated seats 4MC Carbon Fiber trim 5AZ Icon Adaptive LED Headlights with Laserlight 6NW Wireless Charging 71C M Carbon Exterior Package Accessories: ZGC Floating Hub Caps Quite excited and anxious, but probably won't have my ride until sometime in March. Meanwhile, I borrow one of the cars in my house whenever I need to get somewhere (VW Atlas or Honda Accord). I'm working from home, so this is more of a toy than a real need.
