sorry to disappoint you guys. I ended up going with the choice that makes most sense. i know you will hate it but since it's more reliable, nicer-looking, faster, and got more hip interior and better material than the 335 i decided to go with this:




























Yes, the G37.

Sorry... Nice talking to you guys.

[BMWE90]

yeah I dont know about "faster". lol

Anyways, congrats on the new car. Post more pix please and give a complete review.

[///M3NACE]

335i is a beast.

[!Xoible]

okay, im just fucking around... i thought id keep people busy cussing me while i upload the pix

here it the biatch










okay, im hungry, my hands are shaking... i need to eat!!!!

anyway, so i ended up getting jet black with premium, navi, parking shit (sensors and shit), iPod, satellite radio (didnt want it, believe me)

the car is dirty as fuck (lets face it, fuck is hella dirty) coz the dealer didnt wash it, coz 1. i bought it past midnight, 2. i dont want no swirls on goddamn non-metallic black cheap paint

i just did 20% back, 50% front. good enough for me. the wheels are csl reps but they are NOT velocity reps. Talk to SPP (vendor here) he'll hook u up. he's awesome dude. i'll post about experience with him tomorrow, he's

that's it! wanted to share that.

oh, if you know a good professional person to claybar my car please let me know (OC area, irvine if possible)

im usually not a fan of dropping. the guy was trying to convince me to drop it. I said let's see it. when i first saw the car it had like 4 more inches of space, i was like i after driving for like 10 feet it got to this.

I thought i wouldnt say anything about it until i see if people notice it and say anything about it.
I might drop the front, but i dont think the back is that bad. what do you think?
also, the guy wanted me to buy racing springs and he said i have to buy shocks pretty soon. i didnt like the idea.
any info on springs please?

It's not ideal if you lower the front and not the rear because your car will have 2 different set of spring rates. I had my Evo like that for a week and the ride was very very whack. I couldn't loosen a bolt on the rear so I had stock suspension in the rear and aftermarket springs in the front. The rear of the car was soft, while the front was stiff.

The guy you talked to is right, when you go to aftermarket springs on stock shocks...you are slowly killing off the shocks. They won't blow out today or tomorrow, it may be a year or several years, but they will go eventually.

The best route is to go coilover or aftermarket shocks/springs...not just springs by itself.

I personally think the car is that more aggressive with a nice drop to eliminate the gap. With 19s on, I don't even have to angle to enter/leave driveways anymore, just go up/down like a regular car would.

i guess you're right. i dont want to pay for coil-overs any time soon. it's just not on my list and i feel like it's imposed on me now. if i do it it will be after PROcede.
i guess ur right, but im hoping at least one person would tell me it's alright when they see it in person just dont wanna pay for it lol

You can just get springs in the mean time if you just want the dropped look.

Of all the people I know with just lowering springs...3 have blown out, but it was more than 1 year and a lot of miles put on them. Stock shocks can be bought at the marketplace for cheap as well.

Or if you like the stance as is, then leave it. I have friends with coilovers on that are corner balanced, but yet they still have a 2-3 finger gap because they don't want to carry the burden of driving a lowered car, ie slow down to 5mph on bumps.
