New to forum - Introduction

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to introduce myself to the forum and say I'm the proud new owner of a 09 Jet Black 328i sedan (e90) - Everything is pretty base on down to the 16' rims (Non-Sport Package) but I couldn't be happier with my purchase. Fun little story, I was actually shopping for a used Lexus or Acura and stopped by a BMW CPO dealer as a side stop and was hooked by the drive of the e90s. Even though it's a base model, the drive of the e90 was just something else that the IS's, TSX's, and TLs did not have. The balance, the feel, the smooth-revving Inline-6.

Anyways, long story short, I'm blown away by the community and e90 following here and hope to just be a part of the community, learn more things about my car, and get some good advice on whatever future decisions I make with my car!

Best,

B.M.

Welcome BlackMamba, I hope your Username is reflective of your car and that you are not a Kobe fan boy... j/k.

Soon you will go down the slippery slope of mods. First would be to upgrade those wheels and drop your car asap

Thanks everyone. Sorry for the bad iPhone pics, haven't had much time to really take some decent ones. I really enjoy seeing what you've all done with your e90s/e92s. New rims are definitely at the top of a short list of things to do with the car as the stock 16s (Style 282s) aren't very inspiring.

If anyone has gone from stock 16's with non-sport suspension to 18s or 19s (Aftermarket or OEM) while under the Warranty, let me know your experience, challenges, and recommendations!

i love my e92 in all but the think the steering is way too hard, feels like a step up from a honda with no power steering. Maybe it will change if i change the tires.
