New Member, Saying Hello

Dylan · 10-11-2012, 12:25 PM

hello everyone, picked up my car a few weeks ago , its a 07 328xi coupe, i traded in my 08 dodge caliber srt4 for it. little info on me, im 20 years old, full time student at Molloy College, main hobby is automotive photography, i try and get out and shoot as much as i can. well the previous car made 350fwhp//358fwtq it was fully bolted on, with a stage 2 turbo, i also had it "stanced" so it looked pretty nice for a Caliber. owned that car for about a year and a half, then i got bored of it and started looking for something new, found this 328xi and i feel in love, now i own her. Its a 6speed mt, with the 3.0l v6 in Barbera Metallic, no major plans for this car yet, going to start with tints, blacked out tails, reflectors, side markers, wheels.

well thats it for now, feel free to ask any questions.

heres some pics of the old car:

and a dealer pic of the 328xi for now, until i can get out with the dslr:

cop magnet.

welcome!

Spydeputy · 10-11-2012, 01:45 PM

I have always liked 5 spoke wheels. Welcome.

MattMD · 10-11-2012, 01:46 PM

Red on beige looks pretty classy. I'd recommend blacked out chrome trim and grilles as well.

DrewG13 · 10-11-2012, 02:44 PM

Nice work on the Dodge. Like the color combo on the new one.

dav_e92 · 10-11-2012, 04:09 PM

Love the colour on the e92! Don't see those around too often

Delusive · 10-11-2012, 04:14 PM

Welcome to the forums and congrats on the new purchase!

Let the modding begin!

ihc95 · 10-11-2012, 04:20 PM

Gorgeous color combo. Get rid of that door protector or whatever that is on the side of your car. Since it looks like you were into modding, did you consider the 335i? Insane potential with the N54 twin turbo engine.

thank you, yeah I looked into the 335i's and i know there potential, i meet a few in battle with my srt4, they are beautiful, fast cars, but sadly im putting 400miles a week on my car now, so i did not want to get big into performance mods.

Dylan · 10-11-2012, 04:34 PM

Dylan · 10-11-2012, 05:34 PM

yessir, nuclear medicine uses radioactivity to image organs, tumor, or points of interest in the human body, kind like an xray.

and thank you sir, just looked at your wheels and maybe well have to make an order sometime, they look beautiful!
