e90 Love

Sunday morning bliss.

Took my car to Starbucks this morning, got it washed, detailed the inside and my usual V-power fill-up. Today was a good day for e90's everywhere.

It's almost like the car knows when it's treated well. On my way out of the car wash the back slid out a little bit, breaking traction, and I could almost feel it hyperventilating ... begging to play (does that sound creepy?). Naturally, I obeyed. I disabled the DTC/DSC, taking it's leash off. I'm telling you, it's a completely different car with nanny system turned off. Easily spun the tires and for my first time ever, broke traction in 2nd, pulls insanely up to 6000 rpm and shift to 3rd. THIS is why I drive a BMW! Little special moments like this. It makes it all worthwhile. Its awesome.

Ok, I know this whole post sounds like a giddy boy story, but I'm just feeling good about my e90 right now, so please don't bring me down. Just say cool story bro or something.

I absolutely Love your car. Those M3 wheels are so nice. Mad respect on the taste along with simplicity.

At least someone is impressed. My 335 does not excite me. I have put it up for sale.

I'm glad you are enjoying your E90...
I actually did the same exact thing saturday evening. It has just rained and I displayed the DTS, and gunned it in second as I was making a turn, the back fish tailed. It felt good
Long Live E90!!
P.S. like the M setup on your 330i btw.

Yeah I was going to mention that when you take up multiple spots, it's supposed to be in an area where no one really wants to park anyway.

Other than that, it looks real nice. I really dig those wheels. Any more plans for it?

Cool story bro.

Car looks sexy. I want those wheels on my E90!!!

Have you considered debadging smoked tail lights? Being an E90 330i makes it special so it worthy to keep the badge but for looks it is a great thing to do.

Car looks nice, but I also have to comment on the douche parking job. I have never ever seen anyone park like that in my entire life. Keep in mind that it might be the love of your life, but to everyone else it's just a fucking car. It's like letting your kids run free in restaurants because they are angels to you, except the kids are at least actually human.
