New Member Arrives!

Hi people, I came from Vancouver and I'm getting a 2nd hand E92 probably before xmas. Just wanna say hi in the HK section, but I'm a bit disappointed that this section is kinda dead. I hope I can contribute myself to bring up some liveliness to the HK section. Looking forward to the next meet! Any senior posters can give me an idea when will that be? Thanks!

OH NO~~~~~~~~~
I got the report from BMW, the E92 was totally fxxked & raped by the previous owner!
The bottom of the car got so much scratches (even with the factory sport suspension), and the front right wishbone is bent a bit.
THEREFORE.........this E92 won't be my baby

Welcome! From 604 as well.

In fact, probably 60% of new people I've met in HK are from 604 just have not met them when I was there.

Anyways, hope you find your dream e92!

Is there any way that I can swap the interior colour? I don't think there is any after market parts right? Maybe I might able to order it from BMW but only the 2 sport seats will cost like more than a set of 20" rims with tires rite? I want coral red interior SO MUCH! Anyone knows if any E92 owner wanna swap their CR leather to saddle brown?

Hey man, I saw your signature picture from Vancouver auto show. It's a really cool shot for the ACS M coupe in BCIT aerospace centre. I had a few night shots on my IS300 before I left Vancouver.

Not sure what you mean by too much...
Does it make slower? Yes, but with the sprintbooster, you even feel a better acceleration... And later coming the performance Exhaust System, and did I mention maybe the AC Schnitzer Super Charger?
It is certainly more stable when cornering on high speed; it definitely look sexier, specially with my Pirelli P Zero Hero (235/255)

Bimmer, which AC Rims you are using? Type IV or V?

Don't think bigger rims can better off the cornering, but should be your suspension instead. Also, did you install any tower or sway bar?
