Noob Intro

Hi Everyone,

I just joined the E90 fraternity. I picked up a 2007 335i/6 yesterday. I've been an E34 guy since 1999. It was time to get with the times, although I still have my old E34 that has turned into a project. I had a 1990 525 with a supercharged S52 in it, but I crashed it, so I am swapping the parts over to my rust-free '95 shell. Project is going way too slow, and I missed driving stick, so I caved in and bought the E90 for daily use. Although I am a mod-aholic, so it won't be long before I start looking for more power.

Cheers,

Mark

I'm sure he didn't mean it like that Sara. He must have meant club.

Although, I'll agree that this forum in particular can display some sexism which I find sad.

Yes, sorry. Not at all what I meant. I've been trying to get my wife more involved in the BMW world. I wish she were as addicted as the women on here. She isn't a fan of my E34, but loved my dad's X1 when we borrowed it. I tried to get her to take the E90 for a joy-ride yesterday, but our baby wouldn't let her get away. Tonight is the night!
