My new 335i finally arrived w/pics

LJS330i · 04-16-2009, 06:35 PM

My 335i E90 finally arrived.

I do have the ashtray/power outlet and alarm prewire. Here's a few quick pics.

Options:
Monaco Blue/Saddle/Sports/Prem/CA/Ipod/NAV

Order Tracking History:
2/6 - Ordered
2/24 - Production Completed
3/6 - Left On Ship (South Africa)
4/10 - Arrived VPC
4/11 - Arrived Dealer
4/14 - Pickup

I love the car. Can't wait til break in is over.

Things I love:
1) Turbo power... WOW
2) Don't really miss the window controls in the center like I thought I would
3) Cruise control stalk. So much easier than my old E46
4) Automatic Wipers and Lights
5) The standard audio is good. Better than the HK rattle maker in my E46.
6) The Colors: Monaco is so beautiful - Saddle Brown: Pictures don't do it justice.
7) 2009 iDrive. It's so easy and fun to play with
8) Comfort access

Things I don't love:
1) Sometimes the seatbelt when retracting gets folded over on itself and stuck.
2) Rear brakes are grabbing unevenly in a long slow stop. Will take to dealer next week.
3) I do miss the growl of my E46 330i. The car seems kinda quiet.
4) Storage: No stash spots or place for sunglasses and the damn owners manual holder thingy is too big for the glove box.
5) Aluminum trim on the sports steering wheel and shift knob (Easy to change?)

Congrats!! Nice combo!

Put the owners manual in the trunk. There should be a nice space on the right for it to sit in.

Sweet. Super congrats to you.

I'm 18 days ahead of you and still on cloud nine! Mine was made in Rosslyn too!

If you want a growl from the zorst, do the old golf tee mod.

Congratulations!

ToadHollow · 04-16-2009, 08:47 PM

Really a beautiful ride bro ........... not many Monaco e90's here! Atleast not posted up anyway.

Congrats!

I335 · 04-16-2009, 09:13 PM

Awesome color combo - nice taste! The only thing I can see wrong with it is they mounted your steering wheel a little crooked...

LI E90 · 04-16-2009, 09:21 PM
