Question Who owns a 325xi ?

How many of our members own an E90/ 325xi ( not the 335xi)?

I also have a 325xi ... and am on my third set of RFT tires (after 33 months and 32K miles) due to the "cupping" flaws. I always miss the 10K mile cutoff, so I have to pay for half the tires each time. So much for "no maintenance costs"!

By the way, anyone have any intuition on why it is cheaper to insure my 2006 X3 than it is to insure my 2006 325xi? I noticed this on my insurance bill yesterday and was surprised.

I also had all 4 of my stock tires changed under the warranty due to the cupping flaw, I was lucky enough to have found that info online, went to the dealer for an inspection and I did need all 4 tires, they didn't have the original stock tires and offered me the Conti's and of course I said install the Conti's.

I have a '06 325xit, the car is almost 3 years old and I still love it. Mine has a 6 speed with a sport package and gets about 23-25 mpg average. We have a winter cabin in the snow and with the all wheel drive we can get anywhere, snow, dirt, mud, it doesnt matter. The hill decent is an awesome feature.

Chrome exhaust sleeves would be a big improvement for little money if you're at all interested
