Great pictures, upset I missed it.
I actually headed up to the lake that weekend and flew out early the next morning so I missed it

cr2596 · 06-07-2012, 10:15 PM

My buddy Halston took those. Check his other stuff out. His motorsports work is great.

Sara · 06-08-2012, 07:19 AM

Damn it. Im stuck with the N55 for a while longer. With fees/the equity thats owed/current lease rates. Its going to cost me between 12-14k to turn in the 335 16 months early. Its only costing me exactly 10k to keep it the rest of the 16 months. To throw away 14k would be dumb. UNLESS I can find someone to sub lease. Im almost positive I wont be driving an N54 until next year when my lease is up.

Sincerely,

One heartbroken girl with first world problems

Im looking at it this way. Im just thankful and appreciative of what I have, I can only get more. If I bitch about what I dont have I'll never be satisfied in life.

Onurleft · 06-08-2012, 11:01 AM

Sara you realize one would have to install a bigger turbo to reach the limits of an N55...

You already drive a nicer car than 90% of people. It never ends. When I was your age (15 yrs ago lol sounds like i''m 80 lol) I said i'd be happy with a new car. Then I got that. Next was a nicer new car, got that. I always lusted after a BMW, got the 335. My 335 started acting up like yours, used that as an excuse to get an M3. And so on. And so on. Got a GT-R. When does it stop? Always said i'd be happy with a Gallardo, after seeing a 458 and an Aventador I know a G wouldn't do it. Bottom line is in 16 months the new coupe will be out and you can be one of the first peeps to have one. Just suffer with your 11 335 till then lol.

Well said.

I say if they'll take it back, maybe trade for a 12' 328i and save some $$ so you can get an M one day?
The new Sportline interior is so cool, 36mpg, 240rwhp and much lighter/better handling. When the coupe comes out, go for the upgrade.

Thin-walled 14mm, 12 point, deep set socket. I bought one from sears and then grinded it thin and it worked. You can buy the actual one online.
