My Ride: '04 530d Executive, all options except sunroof and comfort seats
ECU remapped by ZipTuning to 260+bhp.
Shot a couple of pics during the week. It was snowing on monday and because it was freezing the whole week, it didn't melt.
(Also had a lot of fun on the parking lot the last couple of days, DTC/DSC off and then floor it
)
(Yeah i know, it's dirty in some pics, snow does that to you Washing it doesn't help, it's dirty again within a few hours)
My upstairs neighbor at the office (other company) has bought a Volkswagen Phaeton 4.2 last year.
For those who don't know it, it's kinda like Volkswagens answer to the 7-series.
A friend of mine owns a E46 330i, so we decided to have a little photoshoot last week.
We took a lot of pics, but only one stood out, especially when i edited it "Top Gear-style"

Very nice pics 
! I bet you've had fun!
But hey, the snow doesn't dirty your car if it's cold enough!

It gets like a muddy mess and sticks to the back of your car.
I have cleaned it this afternoon and it's dirty again.
Maybe i should drive with the DTC on until after the snow has melted

What rims and suspension are you currently running? Are they OEM 166s? Hard to tell with the winter dirt

I'm going to get some OEM #166's as my summer wheels.
Background coming up some time later this day, going out in 10 minutes.
