Greetings fellow Earthlings - I'm hailing from Green Bay. Just moved into the Bimmer world with a used 2011 E92 335xi with 53k miles.

I've been reading a lot on this forum, learning a lot and found that I'll probably be dreading the maintenance on this car. I drive about 35k+ per year. So this might be a real short ownership, but I'll try to squeeze out 150-200k miles... Just bought a PROcede V3 - will install it next week.

I think I got a pretty good deal on this ride. The x-drive was the ticket for Wisconsin winters, and it's got way more ballz than my 2010 VW CC. I find myself actually looking forward to the snow. Crazy, I know.

My territory for work runs from the northern border of Wisconsin around Iron Mountain/Florence, out to Edgar/Marshfield and south to the north edge of Milwaukee, and including Door County. It about 1/3 of the state.

Not that I like being a taxi, but I drive around so much, I'd probably be willing to help anyone needing to sell/transfer parts if I happen to be coming to your areas. It would be great to meet some of you in the Green Bay area who like to do your own maintenance, and maybe we can save a few bucks together and share info about local mechanics/dealers.

Feel like I'm introducing myself at an AA meeting.... I'm Mike and I'm a BMW Addict...
