SG 330i, at George Mason University? - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

oneshare325 · 09-01-2006, 03:50 PM

I just started at George mason last week and I saw two or three e90's driving around. (I don't drive mine since I live 1 hour and 30 mins away) This one was parked in the very front of the lot, i was wondering if it was anyone in here! I firgure they might be since it had been de-badged! Anyone?

Wasn't me...

bavarian19 · 09-01-2006, 06:01 PM

Im taking one class at Mason this semester, but its at the PW campus... Its a grad level science course, so Ill be busy like no other this semester (between working a full time job and this silly course).

ase2dais · 09-01-2006, 07:25 PM

I like to do the same, but getting started is the hardest for me + plus Im on the top of my game I guess it wont matter anymore.

but thats a good thought though, do it while you're young

Its all apart of my second masters. This will get me exactly where I want to be... eventually I would like to go for my PhD.

Maybe when I get the PhD I can finally afford that M5 I have my eye on

ase2dais · 09-01-2006, 09:19 PM

well good for you! for that money! it should be an M6

.. how can you cut yourself short.

btw I went to the moon once

Believe it or not, I actually like the M5 over the M6... But if it were a 550 vs 650, Id take the 6er...

ase2dais · 09-02-2006, 08:08 AM

yeah! I like te M5s too, but I'll take my last e39 M5 over todays e60 M5s.

I should have kept it

There are rumors that the 6MT E60 M5 comes with undefeatable DSC and a igher gas guzzler tax....

But I hear you, a Sepang Bronze/Sepang E60 M5 is right on top of my lotto wish list

at 10 mpg and close to $100k might as well get a Ferrari 360/Porsche, Id say.

If I can afford the car, I can certainly affod the gas

Its a great all around car... great sports car with 4 doors and plenty of room...

ase2dais · 09-03-2006, 07:02 PM

the Attorney I bought my M3 from, seems like in shock with his Ferrari mpg... yup I agree some folks can certainly afford it.

If I drive car like that I'll make sure I have a Exxon tanker behind me, siphoning gas straight to my engine, so I dont have to stop to gasup each time I accelerate.

w/c reminds me of a contestant in Amazing Race show, the whole family won a free gas for life from BP after winning a stopover. imagine!
a Toyota Yaris wouldnt be in their buy plans anytime soon

Free gas for life??? You might end up finding an H2 in my parking lot if thats the case

ase2dais · 09-05-2006, 09:15 AM

I'll have 2 of them too in my garage

YULY · 09-26-2006, 08:18 AM

It might have been me, I removed the 330xi. Does anybody who why BMW decided to re-number most of the 3 series for 2007? how do I get on the list of people who want to attend the October meet? Thanks

KL2DC · 09-26-2006, 09:13 AM

Hi Yuly...

Well the move from 330i to 335i signals an engine change from the 3.0l NA N52 I-6 to the new 3.0l twin-turbo N54 I-6 engine. the '35' in 335 implies the engine has the performance of a 3.5l courtesy FI eventhough it remains a 3.0l. Well that still doesn't explain why a 325i is 3.0l and why the new '07 328i is still the same 3.0l. I think that's just pure marketing crap

We would like for you to sign up at our DC metro registry (details in my sig panel), it will help in our communications (via PM). Wrt meet, don't worry, you won't miss it. We will bolldly promote in the days to come followed by PM blitz. See you soon

oneshare325 · 10-02-2006, 07:10 PM

Bump ....I have spotted it twice since the first post, and two others, both were asian women though......Still hoping this one was a guy in here!!

KL2DC · 10-02-2006, 08:08 PM

I would really like to meet the owner of the jet black (or black sapphire) 330d Euro E91 running on 158s with Virginia Vanity tags "Needlnze" or something like that. Curious to know how that car was registered here (it didn't have diplomatic tags or anything).

Has anyone seen this car (last spotted 495/US1) 2 weeks ago. Would like to have him at our meet.
