08 535xi
I have a 2008 535xi with Sport, Premium & Cold Weather packages in Plat. Grey and Black Dakota leather. 75kup I'm the second owner and bought it with the Platinum BMW warranty (thank god!). In fact it is in the shop right now getting a fresh set of turbos and the valves blasted with walnut shells because of the carbon build up. Problem is I love this car and there isn't anything else on the market that I'd want.
No mods as yet. I want to put a M Tech kit on there and a set of Style 135s. I'm a big fan of keeping things OEM at least in appearance. http://tony2x.smugmug.com/Cars/Otto/...to%20019-M.jpg http://tony2x.smugmug.com/Cars/Otto/...to%20023-M.jpg http://tony2x.smugmug.com/Cars/Otto/...to%20027-M.jpg http://tony2x.smugmug.com/Cars/Otto/...to%20049-M.jpg |

Its just that the 135M's look rather smallish (which is not the case with the 124s for example), so maybe sondider another OEM option.. just not quite sure which of them have xi-suitable offsets? |

Oh WHY does that sound so familiar? :D
:thumbsup: Totally with you on this. Its just that the 135M's look rather smallish (which is not the case with the 124s for example), so maybe sondider another OEM option.. just not quite sure which of them have xi-suitable offsets? I'm hoping this E61 lasts until the next 5 comes and BMWNA sees the error of their ways and brings us a Touring again otherwise I might end up in a Merc *shudder*. |
Hmmm :whistle:
Time for something new...it was painful to let go my E61... Last picture of it: http://i588.photobucket.com/albums/s...s/12060005.jpg And the new one: https://i588.photobucket.com/albums/...209_115755.jpg F25 xdrive2.0d man. |
Sorry to see you go, and to an SUV! How's the X3's handling vs. the 5's? I actually test drove the new X3 (it didn't have the adjustable suspension even), and was actually pleased enough with it, that had I not been able to find a nice 5 wagon (they're very rare here), I would have gone with the X3. The X5 is too much of a pig IMO, weighing well over 5,000 pounds, though it's closer to the 5 wagon in terms of interior space, vs. the X3. The new X3 though they've done a great job with it in terms of usable space inside.

here is mine.
VMR wheels with Conti DWS 245/35/19. 6W angel eye upgrade from Modbargains Really want an M-style front and rear bumper, but will have to settle for a front lip spoiler for now. I'll probably add a Curtis hitch to carry my bikes on. |
