Hey guys,
well its my first time in this forum and i think its the right forum to ask this question. Well pretty soon i should be getting my first car and hopefully it will be a 545...and because i am young...I want more power so i was wondering what are some mods i should do first that won't cost a whole lot. Any help is appreciated

You can easily beat that. I would do exhaust, intake, and a chip first.
Do you have any suggestion of which ones to use? and is quad exhaust worth the money?

you should get a 335i (theres plenty of engine mods for it). but if not, a 545 should pack enough power with 300+ hp. You should go with a custom setup b/c quads like RDSport cost about 3k. a 5 series is not meant to be fast, but a car to be seen in. a m5 is fast
A car to be seen in ??? Did you really mean that ?? come on now !!
Please.... !!!!

i mean it. its not exactly a sports car. Maybe b/c my car is slow, but I dont care. I rather be eye candy.
If I wanted a fast car, buy a corvette z06.

.Welcome on the forum!
You can gain 50 HP at least, with new catback exhaust, headers, catalysts, airbox/filter and remap .
In the meantime, enjoy your 545i!
