Welcome to the 3. Already headed toward a classy mod.

What application did you use for the headlights if you don't mind me asking.

DaYUM, who cares about the car when you look this damn good, lol.

No, on a serious note; welcome to the forum.

Nice car but even nicer lady

[mike@x-ph.com]

Congrats and welcome!

So far your mod list looks great ... I would do exhaust next

[Kenneykickin]

Definitely exhaust next. Nice ride how many miles? Glad to see another lady on the e90 forums. Love you're Beamer!!!

Oh lord it's like prison around here.. A chick walks in and dudes go apeshit.. Only thing worse then E90post is some of the bodybuilding forums I'm on but at least 80% of the dudes there are juicing like Tropicana, so at least they have an excuse.

Do we recommend those straight air intake filter thingies?

I experienced this in my Alfa and it makes the engine really dirty and lowers low end torque. Although it sounds nice. I suppose the torque is lower because the air flow is not going straight and can't be measured properly.

Correct me if I'm wrong or if the installation on a 330i prevents those issues.

In before all the teenage horn dogs completely blow up this thread. Oh wait...too late.

Where is that thread about whether coupes or sedans are feminine, and naming them? Seems gone...mysteriously.

Good day Mika! Nice to meet you. Welcome to the forums. If you can find your way past all the riffraff and nonsense, you could learn a thing or two on these boards- keep your faith in this.

I think it was a draw with the coupe vs sedan argument...then the mods deleted it.

I drive a girly car, as per the forum standards.

Nice ride!!

the only intake I found for my car was the one pictured, well that shape anyways. and from the looks of it I don't think any other shape would really fit under there...

For what it's worth a CAI will benefit an NA engine more than it will a turbo one.

The 330 scratched that itch between 215 HP 325 and the 230 HP 328 at the time at 255 HP, and it was as sad day in BMW history when they halted production on it.

Way back in 2006, I had a choice between a fully loaded executive demo 325, and to wait for a 330 that would've came only about one month later to the dealership.

True story!

I often wonder how my bimmer journey would have changed, had I sat in a 330 as my first.

Mika, take care of that car as if it were some rare jewel- because it is.
