It's been too hot. I've got a whole suspension for my car sitting in the garage since spring, and an annoying vibration coming from the rear that I really need to track down before it becomes a real problem. But when it's near 100 degrees for like 4 months straight and the garage has no AC it's hard to deal.
Sitting a little high, still on stock suspension
Sitting a little high, still on stock suspension, been sorting a few other things in the time Ive owned her, and yes I know my headlights need a polish. Its just a toy for country drives around here.

Fuck the low riders, my car was lowered by the previous owner to what most consider the "perfect" height and I'm scraping like a motherfucker anytime there's a dip in the road. I have to watch out when I'm doing some quick transitions if the road isn't perfectly flat since I have to worry about my suspension bottoming out. It sucks and I really need to find the time to put the stock springs on it. I'd say your car height looks perfect as is, if you want to do some suspension upgrades look into some firmer shocks, but don't overdo it or you'll lose some of the character of driving a BMW. Maybe some good Bilsteins.
Have you checked to see if your springs or shocks are toast?
If the car isn't slammed, you should still get a nice ride if it was lowered correctly.
Dude, if you're seriously thinking about buying a Nissan in 2019 I implore you to go read the reviews of people who have had models from the past 5 years or so. They're more Renault than Nissan now.

When did BMW reliability go to shit? There's a laundry list of recalls and known catastrophic issues with every model I have looked into.. The last 10 years all seem plagued by some really touchy components. Fascinating engineering while sacrificing reliability.
