Haven’t seen you post in a while! Been following your insta since the CCC days though. Been loving the pics. The 2 is a sweet ride btw.

Thanks man! It’s been a change of pace from the CCC days for sure. The 2 is so lovely but I’m trying to figure out whether to buy it at lease end or try to get something else. Maybe 135, maybe E46 M3. I can’t decide.

Yo! I think I already told you, but it was so awesome seeing you and Silvestro in a by line for R&T a few months back. Are you doing all contract work right now, or do you have a standing gig with anyone?

I’m in a kinda similar situation. My e92 335i is awesome and I really do love it, but every time I see a nice E46 M3 I have to immediately check Craigslist and see what’s around me. I really can’t decide if I wanna go through with it or not.

I’m doing freelance stuff on the side right now, but my fulltime gig is with Honda R&D doing photography.

Then I also have weird moments where I feel like I could also just get an E38 short sport and be very happy.

Lol we have very similar taste. A local tow yard had an E38 sitting on m parallels for a few months. I got my tax return and was like fuck it I’ll buy it. Got there, and it was gone!

Very nice! So you know things that we’ll know in a year or two (or never)?

Jonathan Harper > davesaddiction @ opposite-lock.com 04/04/2018 at 10:45

and further out! It’s neat, but the freelance stuff that I can share is my real lifeblood.

Cool - seems like a good mix.

Jonathan Harper > davesaddiction @ opposite-lock.com 04/04/2018 at 18:26

For now, yep. I do miss the freedom of fulltime freelance, but I don’t miss scraping by financially.

davesaddiction @ opposite-lock.com > Jonathan Harper 04/05/2018 at 09:03

Yeah, knowing where your next paycheck is coming from is a pretty good feeling.

Jonathan Harper > davesaddiction @ opposite-lock.com 04/05/2018 at 11:27

But not being a slave to the 9-5 is also a good feeling.

you see the dilemma.

I do. I just turned 40, and my current objective is to make & save enough over the next 5-10 years that I can transition into work that will give me much more freedom of time and place. I have a very good job, but there’s no way I can sit at this desk for another 20 years...
