Random stuff...

1) Yorkville wants ~$100 (after tax) for a set of front 03-04 splash guards, I almost dropped my jaw and wanted to say WTF...when I can get them for $USD 43 from the states

2) Was fooling around with a new 330ix, it doesn't seem to be pulling as hard as what people have reported on this site. Maybe because I am not stock... I was walking him..but had to back it off since I dun feel comfortable doing it on a public road (cmon, I need another track day please)

3) Looking to buy a set of clear corners for sedan

Just ordered a set of clear corner (Coupe) from Chad@infinitispecialist, search "marketplace" where the "vendor classifieds" than "exterior"...you should see it there.

2, They definitely don't pull like our car.
I just spent the day in an E90 330i (at BMW driing school)

The 330 is slower, but that engine is creamy smooth.
The car itself has much better dynamics than the G35; a real nice total package.

^ the "x" would also add weight and hence be slower.

I haven't driven a 330 before but the 325 I drove was a very well balanced package. At our twisty shorter track I had a challenging time dropping both the 325 and 330's. Might have been my driving though.

- Thank you for the info guys

- But I do agree that the 330 really handles like a charm + they are lighter than our cars by at least like 200lbs
