bw86newman · 05-14-2014, 08:23 PM

2011 E90 335i Lemans Blue, M Sport, and 6 spd w/ 33k miles. Had her for about 2 yrs now.

Had to go to vegas to get her. Only manual I could find available at the time in my color and price range.

I've also attached a couple of pictures at the end of my original 1990 E30 325i, 5spd, shit ton of miles and runs great!

Thanks, I definitely want to get some spacer. Just don't know how big I should go since she is my DD and I don't really want to have to roll the fenders. Let me know if you have any experience with this setup and spacers.

NGEE · 05-14-2014, 08:33 PM

What's your setup? Assuming stock sport suspension? For some reason it doesn't look like the sport suspension.

What wheel/tires?

Mardio · 05-14-2014, 08:37 PM

Congrats, sharp ride.

X_Drive · 05-14-2014, 08:39 PM

Beauty!

Got the same vehicle. Got mine six months ago. Check out the pics in my garage list.

Did a bunch of cosmetic mods and also the performance exahaust mode.

Love it so far...

Nice!! Looks Great. I didn't see any pics of your m3 lip spoiler. Do you have any pics of that you could post. I'm thinking of getting.

Good to see another LMB LCI 335i on the board.
Love how that color plays with desert sunshine!
Reminds me... I need to get my grille plastidipped

Anyway, hope to see more pics, man!

Hey! I just dipped my grill last weekend. Looks pretty good.

Such a gorgeous car. Lmb e90s are the best

wildguy101 · 05-15-2014, 02:03 AM

Exact car I wish I could have got, so hard to find! Congrats!

Welcome to NBA Jam · 05-15-2014, 09:31 AM

Gotta love LMB!! I originally didn't like it until I saw it in person.

Then I ended up owning one.

The unfortunate side effect is if I sound like a douchebag on the phone when saying "Le Mans."

That e30 needs a little love .. I sure hope it's not just a beater >.<

tboudre · 05-15-2014, 01:48 PM

I have nearly the exact same car, but the Xdrive Automatic. Oh, if I could have found a stick shift, but this one was too good a deal and local. Bought about six months ago. Six weeks after I bought it someone slammed into the back of me. So, I had the body shop paint the grill (had to buy a new black grill to paint) and the bottom back bumper LeMans Blue to match the car. I put the vinyl M-stripes on the grill. Also change to the matte black badge on the trunk.
