Just bought a '08 335i

geff33 · 08-24-2011, 07:58 PM

I am new to this forum. Just want to share some pics of my newly acquired 2008 E90.

I have this car for six years and my DD: a 2002 BMW 530i. She is a pleasure to drive and has some power. However, I want a more fun car to drive:

This car has 43K miles on it. It is CPO'd until 2014. It comes with a sports/premium/cold package. Hope to have many fun years with this car.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on your new ride!

Nice! I love that 5 series. I like how you were able to go from a manual 5 to 3 series. They're getting tougher to find, but a pleasure to drive as always.

i have a 330 but basically the same body

its a beauty good luck with it!

Unfortunately the other half is not too fond of mods. However she enjoys driving the car. I'm lucky that I am married to a gal that loves to drive manual transmission cars.

Why Stick Shift?
Is It Fun Driving Manual 5speed?
After Driving Stick For 6 Years, I Am So Fed Up With Manual Tranny.
Now, I Could Understand Why Majority Of People In U.s Drives Auto.

Your 530 was really nice. Wonder how it drives.

Great looking ride!

530i MT DD FTW!

jwalker87 · 08-26-2011, 03:09 PM

Great looking car! I'm actually buying an almost identical one tomorrow. After DDing my Corvette for 4 years, I want 4 doors!

username604 · 08-26-2011, 03:17 PM

oh and that's some sticky looking rubber you've got on your wheels!

Wild Squid · 08-26-2011, 05:54 PM

I've come real close to buying a manual 530i/540 a few times. I'm glad I held out and got my 335i new.
