I thought you had bought a new phone just a few months back? Doesn't your Nokia come with a memory card which you can copy your photos to your PC through the plug'n'play USB Card Reader something? Just curious..

I thought you were on a biz trip? Seems like more a leisure one with the beautiful scenes

yup, i drove the C class to BMW Munich and was surrounded by many bmws in the parking lot

seriously, i got only 2 days for sightseeing.

To my surprise, i have logged 3500km in 10 days

Oh yeh, you disappeared and showed up in Europe with W204 on snow maintains
telling us you had driven 3500km , plenty of moods and photos.
We can all read from magazines the C200K is 8S max speed 255kmh, but
please bother to give us a test report, how fast did you drive ?
and, e.g. Is the 200K performing better than 320i ?

I think on paper, the C200k is only capable of 230km/h but i reached 251km/h, mayber there was tailwind . I have also tried out 0-100km/h, it can reach 100km/h in 8.04s

I haven't driven the 320i so I can't comment which one is performing better. But I guess the C200k should be faster in acceleration since it has 184hp

Overall impression on this C200k is very good. Everything is very good except the dash is abit plasticky, the transmission is very very slow and the steering feel isn't as good as the E90 but overall I am very impressed with this car. It's miles better and much much improved compared to my ex. W203 C200K

Quick questions has any of you e92 drivers tinted their car? If so, did any of you experience problems with the rear window beecause of the dot matrix?

I went Saturday to tint my windows... experience.... bad....

Btw nice pictures!

[wkmark]

Well here it is. I installed the Hamann splitters onto my front. I sure like it! Yes, another mod done. Here are some picture from my camera phone again. One day i will take a sets of decent pictures with my regular camera. But this will have to do for now.

good report , but sound like the slow tranny , pity , the C200K is not with 7G Tronic. Else, I think it slaps the 320i big on the face!

Looks just great! To me, together the splitters makes the M bumper big mouth looks much more complete in shape

chairman and t, do we still have the car of the month? If yes I then would like to nominate wkmark's E90!

hey, no problem as long as I am also happy to see our other members good mods!

yeah, next time (if there is next time for my current E90), I should not just target too many to do in one shot... break it down is several small pieces will be easier... and more important -> need less patience in myself...

Yes, definitely more drivable then the breyton The breyton bumper had about a little more than 1 sneakers space from the ground. This add on have much more room.

As for the parking lot, are you in HK now? Um. ..#4, not sure where that is at.

I did think of the Gruppe M intake, but that's really costly and i need to search on the internet for the sound to see if it is too loud.

I tried to do things slowly but as you had mentioned before the longer we install the mod, the more worthwhile it is because you get to enjoy them for a longer period of time. Anyways, after having a chat with my mechanic who install things for me, he showed me the following:

1.) I should get a better intake. My output is good but input is not enough. Gruppe M would be the best mod, but gotta think and gotta look online to see if i can find a sound clip.

2.) He also suggest the brakes, because he showed me that my current stock brakes, the brake disc is actually being worn out. Meaning that the brake disc is getting thinner. So i should consider changing the brakes. This i need to think about. He suggested a brand called "Tarox" Have any of you heard of this brand? Anyways, can someone also give me some insight onto why some people change only the front brakes and others the entire set (meaning front and back?)

1. Yes, I already completed my 2008 mods, and I can concentrate on my other hobbies now such as GT5p , home audio replacement, trip to Shanghai ....if I were still fiddling with my mods like I did in Jan-March, damn, I will end at the garages all the time and did nt even have a chance to detail my car.

2. Know nothing about intake, Snowhill was thinking about it , but he may not want it now.

3. For Project Mu, the rear brake is not yet available on sale ( they have rear brake for the E46 , so I guess we can wait patiently )
For Brembo, they have both for E90.
Yes, I will install Project Mu rear brake once it were becoming available.
Basically, for 4pot front brake, there is no major adverse effect not having both front and rear. But for 6pot front, it is more 'balance' to have 4pot in the rear.
