My Ride: Jan 2006 E63 650i Sport
.
Options:
Sport version (includes: sport-seats, sport-suspension, M-Sport steering wheel, Anthracite headliner, Shaddow Line), Saphire Black, Black Dakota Leather, Anthracite Maple Wood trim, Steptronic Auto, Xenons, NAV-Professional with Voice Control, TV, CD-Changer, Bluetooth, Logic7, Head-up Display, Comfort Access, Seat Heating front, Auto Dimming & Folding Mirrors, Extended Auto Air Conditioning, PDC.
.
Mods:
Spacers 5mm front & 15mm rear
.
Wheels:
20" Alpina Softline (Classic) with Dunlop Sport Maxx non-RFT (255/35/20 & 285/30/20)
My plan is turn her into a mod / car addict...
I just bought Chrom Trim for my wife's 3er, just as a little taster of what can be done to boost the appearance of her car. After telling her I'd ordered the chrom trim, she mentioned that a Sport Steering wheel could also be nice change... and we're off!!
The next phase will be getting her registered on E46fanatics, a sponge, and some cleaning products...

ps. MacSid -- would be nice if Mrs MacSid didn't reveal this little plan of mine at the next meet!
That said, my wife is much smarter than me, so she's probably had this worked out all along, probably already is a member of E46fanatics, and is just waiting for me to spend all my money on her car

Now, now, judging by the way the Mrs's were getting along at the last meet, I think we're going to need to be extra careful what we say to them about our and each others' cars and mod plans so, nope, Mrs xBMWx ain't gonna hear anything from us Still, it's good to see that they have some petrol running through their veins after all

So, that's my story and I'm sticking to it...no wife...I am the king of the castle.

Wise words -- you're simply the model good husband, thinking of your wife's well being
