looks great

 

Arent the M3 19's staggered?? and isnt that car AWD???

 

I got the sport package which came with staggered 18's. As for getting the M3, I didnt look at it for 2 reasons, becuase AWD to me is more important in new england than speed and also becuase the E46 M has been out since 01 and is outdated. I still love the look but the interior looks very outdated. It reminds me of this 01 740IL we had on out lot for a while... very old school. The E90 interior is far superior to even the 06 M3. So for both of those reasons the E90 was a much better buy for me. Maybe when my lease is up (25 more months to go) I will look at the new generalion E92 M3 and might end of up with one of those. In the meantime I am loving my choice. I just ordered H&R springs that are supposed to be available in 1 week from creative, they will be a huge improvement and I think the M3 19's will certainly look a lot better.

As far as my G35 coupe goes, after 35 days of driving the E90 the only thing I miss is the torque, however the clutch and shift feel is a lot better in the E90 among other things... overall I love my E90 and im happy with it.

thats a damn nice looking 3...only way ide ever hook it up with stock 18"

 

Oh, definitely. I was talking about sedans only. At least the e90 has a nice proportional profile, the e92 with those long overhangs does not. And let's not go into the front and rear of either...

Not AWD and outdated interior huh. How about M3 insurance costs as much as the car payment?

Not to dwell too much on this, but Bangle broke a lot of BMW traditions that have been around for ages - e.g. dash turned slightly towards the driver, window switches on both sides of the shifter, etc. You think it's good, I think it's bad, thank goodness that retard hasn't decided to get rid of the signature kindeys yet, but the assist sharkfins are getting bigger and uglier by the day Also, you can't compare the leatherette or dakota or whatever the e90 comes with to the M nappa or merino leather. The e90 dash sure does look more modern, as it is supposed to, with all the iDrive gadgetry they put in it. Non-sport steering wheel and seats still look dated as ever imo, as well as the tan headliner. Overall, the changes BMW makes from generation to generation are nowhere near as extreme as, let's say, an 03-04 vs 07 G35 interior. And the material quality BMW is using on the e90 certainly isn't all that superior.

 

Hey Matt!!! Was that you that day on the local Tewksbury roads that like made this crazy u turn and followed me and gave me high beams?!?!?!

I was like what is up with this fool. I didn't know you got this car, my bad!!!

Looks nice.

I do agree, M wheels, look nice but kind of out of place.

I love the car though. Good job with the rear roof spoiler and the AC pedals...those pedals are hella expensive huh? I got a set for my Z4 when I had it and I think I paid like $330 or something...W/OUT THE FOOTREST!

 

Ya! that was me.. I tried to get ur attention i figured my driving and waving you would catch on lol

 

Good idea! My next car also, for sure.

 

Matt I thought you were going to keep it stock to avoid messing with the comfort?

 

I was thinking to myself...who's this crazy dude in the white beemer.
I don't know anyone that has that car.
ahhahahaha
my bad man.

 

very nice matt
I thinking about selling my g ...in 07
and getting 06 black 650i coupe
360 hp and 360 tor. V8
thats if the 08 coupe only comes with 306hp
and have to like stlye

 

yeah man, don't mind the haters, I LOVE it. I know those wheels must have set you back some $$. To me and e90 with e46 wheels is a nice, subtle upgrade. Half the people talking smack have got Axis se7ens anyway, and they wanna talk about cheap rims. Do your thing man.

 

looking good !

 

agree, at first sight, I dunno why bmw revised the e46. HOWEVER, the e90 is growing on me, as all the new models do (civic, etc), and I am beggining to fall in love like I once did with my e46. Is that cheating?!?!

Before my g, i leased an e46... loved her.
