New owner from Canada; M Sport 6MT RWD
Hi all, picked up my 2009 e90 6MT RWD for 3 months now. Just want to introduce myself to you all!
2009 335i M Sport RWD 6MT Space Gray/Black dakota leather interior Silver Glacier trim Nav pkg Executive pkg Audiophile Sound pkg M Sport pkg 1 of 48 N54 E90 M Sport+RWD+6MT made for Canada; 1 of 5 in Space Gray; 1 of 2 in Space Gray + Black leather interior. Pretty much fully loaded for the year, minus headlight washers (and I'm glad I don't have them), lumbar support, active steering, and sunshades. Took me a very good while to look for an RWD 6MT N54 335i (like around 6 months), this one happens to be well-optioned and comes with all maintenance records since new which is what sealed the deal for me. Previous owner put in Conti ExtremeContact DW, Lux v3, 335is pedals, BMS clutch stop and gloss black kidney grilles which is nice because these exact items were on my mod list haha..thank you sir! Previous car: 2010 Acura CSX Type S (essentially a Honda Civic Si in a suit) LOVE this car, tons of fun and memory for the last 3 years that I have owned him. I rev to 8400 rpm redline everyday and it has never let me down. Took me a lot of effort to piece together the parts to make it a Type R replica as well. Unfortunately it's time for a change as I mostly drive on highways and less on windy roads now. First pics when I picked her up: Style 193 With my old car in the back Short road trip When I had my eyes set on this car, I told myself I would hold off onto modifying it for a good while...well the truth is I bought a JB4 G5 before picking the car up haha. So the minor modding begins: More sound and power... Found some dead bodies in the stock airbox haha. and then some sound...BMW PE (Thanks Leslie!) Through-loading system FTW With my buddy's evo With buddy's 135i And then I bought a new car, Valencia Orange F30 xDrive HAHA not really, but I am impressed by how VO looks on the F30 M Performance edition. Then I went ghetto: Not bad for $15 I must say With my buddy's Frozen White M4. This is the Canadian Launch edition so it has the Individual Amaro full leather interior as well...so much want!!! Stuff done to the car: BMS JB4 G5 BMS Clutch Stop BMS Dual Cone Intake BMW Performance Exhaust BMW Performance gloss black kidney grilles Continental ExtremeContact DW in stock sizes Lux V3 OEM 335is pedals Plastidipped reflectors Stay tuned!

I have a set of Bilstein PSS9 as part of the deal when I bought the car. I think M Sport suspension is amazing and thought the car is low enough...but the ricer in me is now saying the car is too high now haha...so probably installing it within next week or so.
Also planning to get a BMS oil catch can, BMS clutch delay valve and a backend flash. Chargepipe+bov/forge dv and catless downpipe are on my list as well to reduce turbo lag |

If you're gonna track the car very often, LSD is a good idea. I'm not tracking my car until next summer so LSD is at the bottom of my list as I have another year until I start tracking the car

I think LSD is beneficial both on and off the track, I can feel the loss of traction at turns though not major, and LSD is definitely a good idea in snow driving

September 2015:
Been a while, a little update I guess My tow eye cover got stolen in Toronto! Weight reduction right? Nobody is selling this cover painted in Space Gray, so I picked up a new one from the dealership. MaxBimmer discount ftw! Bilstein PSS9 is on! And then I was in Hong Kong, showcasing my friends' cars... Man, what an experience just to start this car up! A few quick iPhone 5 snaps: Enjoy!

Thanks and thanks! this username has been with me for a very long while hahaha
Seriously I'd never expect someone to steal these things these days...you got a pm about the price I paid. I still need to find a body shop to paint mine though...
