Hey!

raquelmister · 04-18-2007, 09:38 AM

Hey all!

I would like to introduce myself, I'm Raquel and a new owner of a 2007 328i. My boyfriend is Billmister

, and as you all probably know, his car isn't doing to good right about now. But all will be fine; he went to 2 dealerships today and hopefully by next week his car will be sexified and out on the road again.

I traded in my first car ever, a 2006 mazda3 sedan. I loved my car, I really did. I even cried

that night, regretting leaving my car not knowing if its next owner was going to appreciate it as much as I did. I would have kept it but I hated the stealership I purchased it from. I had a high interest rate and by the time I was done paying off my Mazda I would have paid for a new BMW.

Not having to pay for any maintenance sold me, in the year that I had my car I had already spent so much money on all the services and i was due for a break change. Not having to worry about this for the first 50,000mi does lift a weight off of my shoulders.

My payments are higher but they are very much worth it, and I can proudly say I drive a BMW.

I don't have any pictures yet of my new car but I do have ones of my old car, as soon as I get new pictures I'll post them up.

Now I am going to describe my car as best as I could. 2007 328i, Artic Metallic, Beige Dakota Leather, Premium Package which includes the Bluetooth system, Automatic Transmission, Comfort Access, Light Poplar Natural Wood Trim and Heated Front Seats.

Who else has comfort access? MAN! Don't you just love it? That has to be my favorite feature along with the Bluetooth System. :rocks:

Never had any of this stuff on my Mazda, I kind of feel like I am getting spoiled.

I love my new car.

TYW · 04-18-2007, 09:50 AM

Welcome Raquel! Good to see another new member from N.J.

mesier1111 · 04-18-2007, 09:50 AM

ahhhhhhhhhh, and thus begins another torrid love affair

Congrats! Since I'm grumpy, I have to complain about something -- I hate the ambiguous thread title.

I like the Mazda 3, too. Great value for the money. But your new car sounds great! Artic + Beige + Poplar is a very classy color combo.

txusa03 · 04-18-2007, 09:54 AM

I like how you emphasizes the premium pckg with BT technology.

welcome, but make sure you post some pic of you next to your car. Many of us old timers have seen so many imposters on here...how do we know you are really raquel

Actually, Boston drivers are such incredible a$$holes. The only thing I'd be really comfortable with her driving around here is an M-1 Abrams

billmister - Why didnt you help your girlfriend with the maintenance of her ex-Mazda 3 ????

You should have helped her save money by replacing the brakes and other stuff like that

Yeah, I don't think the damage will just buff out if you get hit..

Ask Picus though just to be sure..

Josh49 · 04-18-2007, 10:28 AM

Sorry - my friend Tx and I got a little off topic in this thread... You can have it back now..

Enjoy the new car, and drive safely..
