:thumbsdown:

I have a 525 with 185hp. My car used to look exactly like yours and I still loved it.
I love my car to death now and wouldn't trade it for anything. I got M5 owners looking at my car

Trust me, anyone can own a fast car, but owning an unique car is something else

oh yea... get a sprint booster to ease the pain

hyethug015, don't worry about the nose-dive look -- It goes away after a few hundred
kilometers (miles)... Mine was like that when I first changed (Eibach spring/stock shocks)
but it's settled more and looks great now!

About wheels, due to the stiffness of of the ride, I don't see anyone going bigger than 19"
without having others (wife, family, kids) suffer if it's an everyday car.
