Op again good stuff…

I've also been to car meets and seen many people using wheelchairs. They always have the nicest cars, just like OP with the Carbon seats.

I went to a M3 meet up few years back. Open to other cars. Dude shows up with a late model 911 turbo. Gets out the car chilling in his sophisticated wheelchair. My guess the 911 turbo of wheelchairs. Thing looked BOSS!

Op you got some competition 🦅

Totally inspiring especially around Thanksgiving. I saw your other build and how you get in/out and while truly inspiring for others, gave me a whole lot of education and appreciation for BMW, the mobility market, and how you especially didn’t let a disability become a prevention to enjoying life.

Thanks for sharing.

Sent you a PM.

watching you steer, shift, and throttle with 2 hands seriously makes my brain hurt! i assume its coordination you learn over time but really neat to watch pov.

as a fellow e92 owner in the bay area definitely curious to hear your thoughts about the g82 when you get it.

I’ll do a write up when I’ve driven it for a while. I also go to a bunch of local car meets in the bay so if you ever attend one you might see one of my M’s. Won’t be hard to spot me in a wheelchair. 👍🏽

I am glad you are enjoying it! I am not paralyzed, but have you seen what some of the paralyzed racing drivers use? https://www.thedrive.com/accelerator...-drivers-works

Since these cars are electronic everything now, you could keep both hands on the wheel with this ring system. Just wanted to share and wish you unending enjoyment!

I updated the post with a video explaining why these are the best seats for disabled drivers.
