Default First BMW!!

What's up mates,

I just picked up my first ever BMW two days ago. I came across an 04' 530i with a fresh 330i ZHP swap. Definitely needs some TLC both interior and exterior, but I look forward to the journey and process just as I have with all my cars.

Previously, I've only driven Japanese cars. Nissan, I've had a 89' S13 KA24D, 91' S13 SR20 Redtop, and an 05 350z Osiris tuned. Toyota, I was fortunate enough to pick up a 94 MR2 RHD Widebody swapped with a 3rd Gen 3SGTE. Infiniti, I had an 04 G35, also tuned with an Osiris Tune. My most recent car, RIP, was an 05 Subaru WRX Impreza Wagon with a EJ205.

I'm really looking forward to building this 5 series. I honestly can't wait for this thing to be back in shape both mechanically and aesthetically.
