But this BMW is a gift from a German friend, and he is authorized to drive it at 140 MPH in Germany. And I have a German drivers permit which authorizes me to drive 140 MPH in Germany. How can you write me a ticket for 140 MPH on Interstate 95? It's just not fair.

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
