New toy!!!

I know this probably belongs in general discussion but I prefer this forum instead, and before anyone gets crazy, I still have my F150. I love that truck and will probably never sell it, but I love the feel of a sport sedan and I got a wicked deal on the car so I could not pass it up. Anyway I'm sure the mods will follow. I would like to know what you guys think of it.

It's a 328i, and the new G35 is really nice but I prefer BMW.

Thanks for the compliments from everyone.

hotstang46, that is a nice 330i you have there. I have always liked that generation. As far as mods go. I would like to get the smoked taillights from the European 3 series. Also I want to get Eibach springs, probably a 1.5inch drop. An exhaust system would also be nice. These are the ideas I have so far. Any others would be appreciated.

there are some wicked superhcragers out there for BMW's, as well as turbos.

go with a chip on it if not one of those. im trying to convince my dad to get this chip made for his C43 AMG that gives 200more HP made in germany.

of course some rims

id take some styling from hamann motorsports if i were you.

you will certainly have to be careful with a drop like that......looks like your front end is already close to the ground like mine........

non performance wise....especially if you're lowering the car...I love the look of the little lip spoiler on the trunk in the rear, i think it really makes a big impact despite being a small piece...

Thanks for the ideas. As far as lowering it, I have driven lowered cars in the past and I think it will be okay. I do like the lip spoiler and that is a possibility. The car is still very new so there are not alot of aftermarket performance parts such as tuners just yet but I will be watching for that. I'm also not a huge fan of body kits. I like the stock body as it is.

Why do ppl compare Mercedes and BMW's to infinity and lexus??? They are just glorified Nissans and Toyotas. Nothing wrong with them by any means, but BMW and Benz are in their own class, and that's just the way it is.

Oh it is, verrrry nice cars, nothing wrong with them at all. Japanese car makers have their stuff right these days. Just that german stuff is a lil different in a lot of aspects.
