Mom Got the Sports Package, I didn't!!!

MoreCowbell · 03-23-2006, 10:00 PM

Mom and dad live on Long Island and got an E90 with ZSP. I live in New York City and got myself one without ZSP, as I was concerned about bent rims here in Manhattan.

Now my father calls me everyday to tell me how comfortable the sports seats are.

Even though im 30 now, is that abuse???

Ethirtynine · 03-23-2006, 10:14 PM

Your seats are comfortable too, aren't they? Sport seats are not for everyone

karbosshack · 03-23-2006, 10:36 PM

Beat their asses to the floor!!!

JSpira · 03-23-2006, 10:49 PM

Your father's name isn't Harvey, is it? Someone named Harvey Gluck posted here last week.

ward · 03-23-2006, 10:51 PM

it's not abuse if you deserve it

MoreCowbell · 03-23-2006, 10:56 PM

Yup....that's my Dad...and he won't stop making fun of me for my "lack of options"....

Drugfranbs · 03-23-2006, 10:59 PM

Make fun of him for wearing sneakers in the pool

He gets the BMW's for Mom...he's been driving Corvettes for very long time. I've even gone to the Corvette plant in Bowling Green with him and walked down the line with one of his cars. Very cool experience.

This is my first 3 series...and I LOVE it. I'll be home next week, and i'll get a picture of the two E90's side to side and post it.

By the way...I got a MUCH better deal than him...he doesn't like to Bargain. If you relly want to have some fun...ask him what he paid!!!

my moms 330xi with out the ZSP i hate her seats they seem rock hard, and dont hold my body when going into turns. Now my 330i ZSP seats? Thats another story

cntlaw · 03-24-2006, 03:38 AM

I know it is your sense of humor..
Just wonder why you do not consider to go M-Sport package?

SRT · 03-24-2006, 03:44 AM

I probably would avoid ZSP too, particularly here in London. Some of the speed bumps and traffic-calming measures are just lethal to lowered cars. One of my friends has an R34 Skyline and I would see how much trouble he went through when he used to live in the urban areas like myself. Speed humps in particular are a nuisance and they have to be taken at sub 5mph, even less, sometimes a crawl

Paul330d · 03-24-2006, 03:54 AM

Not wishing to rub it in or anything, but here in Europe we can order the sports seats without the lowered/firmer suspension. In fact, that's just what I did.

davinet78 · 03-24-2006, 06:09 AM

as long as you are happy with your car and comfortable in it thats all that matters.

You can do that here too. "Our" second E90 was just ordered like that!
