Picked up a 330i

MiniD · 02-21-2014, 09:25 PM

I recently sold my 330i ZHP and picked up this 2006 E90 330i 6MT. The car is loaded aside from NAV. I love it so far! Great upgrade over the ZHP.

Thus far I have added OEM Blacklines and Cyba scoops. The car came with a ZHP knob, black grills, and the M-Tech trunk lip.

I'm a maintenance first kind of guy but luckily the previous owner took care of just about everything!

I have a set of E90 M-Tech wheels in the garage that I'm going to put on the car after I buy a set of Pilot Sport AS3s. Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Your muffler tip is off! Either get new ones or buy new pipes and have them welded on! Car looks super sharp.

Do you have two different exhaust tips? lol

Stance321 · 02-21-2014, 10:40 PM

Why did you buy a car that is nearly 10 years old if maintenance first? There's wear and tear on interior/exterior parts no matter how well previous owner took care of it being an 06.

Why do you care? Let him enjoy his car. There is wear and tear on you no matter how well you took care of yourself.

That looks like a oem trunk spoiler to me? Hard to tell from the pics though. Great looking car!

I think what he means is that he likes to do things like water pump, t-stat and other preventative maintenance before modding. In this case, the PO already took care of those so he's good to start dropping serious coin on mods

Nice ride OP and I keep my wallet in the same spot.

Enjoy the 330, welcome to the club!

Thank you for clarifying.

Yes, I am missing an exhaust tip cover. I will get that taken care of. Thanks everyone.
