My 4 Cylinder City Cruiser

rickyislazy · 07-23-2018, 01:40 PM

After selling all of my cars (E36, E38, E39touring) in California, I finally got another car but this time on the other side of the world.

2006 BMW 320i 6 Speed Manual, yes it is slow.

It has custom build coilovers based off of a shortened twin-tube Tein front assembly and revalved Bilstein B6 rear shocks, spring rates are approximately 12kg/mm front and 21kg/mm rear.

Wheels are the all new forged monoblock VSP Type 3 in 18x9.5 ET15 & 18x10 ET12, tires are 215/40 & 225/40

I like mine...slow also but if it looks nice and rides and feels comfort and luxury it's mint.

Car looks awesome! How much do they go for there?

Nice car, how much rmb was it? Does it have iDrive? These 320s make my 328 look fast. Post some interior pics?

Im curious. How hard was it to find a 6spd car over there?

Thanks guys, 320i goes for around 60-70k RMB here for the pre-LCI models. Manual BMWs are very very rare, I got mine from my friend's mom, she was the first owner.

Manual BMWs are rare in China? Most people in Asia and Europe drive manual cars.
