no pics.....

Oh well, sorry to waste you guys time. If anyone has tips on how to post pictures here from photobucket let me know. I have always been able to post pictures before on other forums. This is the first time I have tried on this forum and have tried everything to make it work.

Well anyway, the car is awesome. Nothing I have owned before can even come close to compare in quality of ride and driver feel. After 2 days of owning and driving out on state highways and twisty mountain roads, the car exceeds even my lofty expectations and I have not even exceeded 4500rmps due to break in period. The 6sp manual is so butter smooth even with only 150 miles on the clock, then engine is beyond description even though it is not the twin turbo 335i. I am now officially a unashamed BMW fanboy. Byby Honda, you have served me well as reliable transportation but there is no going back now. Sorry guys, I will keep working on the pictures.

I finally figured out the pictures. I know they are not of great quality but here goes. The interior shots dont look good. The gray poplar trim is much darker and gray in reality than the pictures.

Nice place too

That looks awesome. Those are some great pictures. It looks like the area you live in is beautiful also. Enjoy that ride!!!

what options did you get? (I see sport package)

roadcarver · 03-26-2008, 07:50 PM

Thanks guys. I went pretty basic, only the sport package and heated seats. Didnt want I drive and power seats take too long to more forward when my kids get in the back seat so I went with manual seats. I feel fortunate to live in a rural mountain area where I get to really drive some low traffic twisty mountain roads. It has its inconveniences but is worth it due to the great roads for driving and awesome road bicycling. I am a very avid cyclists.

The car more than exceeds my expectations. I now see why so many people get hooked on BMW.

Thanks everyone

nice

Streetfish · 03-27-2008, 09:08 AM

sounds great, i went pretty basic too: sport, heated and power seats, PDC. one question - i noticed that even though you didnt get the bluetooth package you still have the buttons on your steering wheel for the phone functions. is there a way to use these buttons without having bluetooth (a 'wired' phone? where do you wire it?) or are they non functioning.

She's a beautiful car! Congrats.
Gorgeous area you live in too. I'd love to drive home through that kind of scenery!
