intro....

So thanks to Ty and Art Greenlee at Rasmussen I just placed an order for a 335xi in barbera Red with Terra interior basically fully loaded everything except active steering and active cruise control. Unfortunately the car is an automatic but with the paddle shifters since this car will be for my mother to use when she is in portland.

Definately not the first bmw in the family as I currently have a 79 320i race car, 2 E30's one with a Euro S50B30 (m3 motor) and my 03.5 E46 M3.

So i am trying to resist modding this car but in all likely hood i will be doing software. Hope to see you all on the road and drive safe!!

it is but should look good....usually they won't let you order something that would be totally hideous....If you think of it that both colors are pretty deep and luxurious colors and the windows with a bit of a tint should look really good. I remember when i ordered my M3 and it was going to be an up hill battle getting Carbon Black with Imola interior so i ended up with Silver Gray with Imola.

Ha Haithem and I remember the last new car you bought that was going to stay "relatively stock"
