As others have said, save it and let it accrue. Later, it will help you to purchase a house or plan for an early retirement. You can always invest it in stocks as well.

good advice but in the same point of view as oblivion08 (i just graduated too ) id say give him the advice he really needs right now...
i dont really care if ppl give me advices on life and whatnot (im more on the receptive side) but it gets on my nerves when theres 30 other posts saying what we can do with our money years later...
we dont really have a prospective view of things right now, and even though i personally am more receptive on things like this, i think it'd be better to tell him which set of rims would look best on his car instead of what he can do with his money later on.

ps. csl hyperblack would be sicknasty :rocks:

Well, I apologize for putting in my two cents then. Of course, that two cents of mine is worth much more than that now.

M6 rims in my opinion, CSLs are nice as well but I think the M6's look stunning.

No need to apologize! I personally learn more from this forum about finances and whatnot than my parents, but i was just saying you should give him an answer for what he really asked at the same time.

I'm biased towards silver wheels with jet black cars, because that's what I have on my jet black 5-series. Here is another thread with the same color combo: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=67776.
If you decide to go silver, then the M6 or CSL wheels will look very nice. My preference would be with the M6 wheels, because they're not something you run into often. If you go with black wheels, then you will lose the details of the wheels when the car is viewed from a distance. The silver brake rotor and brake calipers will then stand out. The CSL wheels will cover more of that silver look as they are not as "open" as the M6 wheels.

My advice:

Don't listen to anyone on here. Mod for yourself, and buy what will make YOU happy everytime you look at your car.

My opinion:

CSL!

sammy, csl time attack..

dont paint the calipers though ive seen it in person...it looks cheesy and brings attention to a stock part...painting them black will hide them.

im going to the junkyard to grab my blacklines and other stuff off my car...im pretty sure their untouched...if i can get them ill hook u up with some parts.
