Looks like my 335xi. I've got a crimson red e90 and its a very rare color on the sedans at least

Victor328i · 03-13-2014, 05:32 PM

Just bought a set of 162's for my coupe, but those look absolutely beautiful on a red sedan

I think whatever options where available at E90 330i launch is what the original owner got with the exception of SAT radio.

I agree, this one had to have been individually ordered!

The irony here is that I'm Canadian too! Albeit a British Born Indian turned Canadian living in 'Murica!

I was at the E90 launch, and that was my dream car in late 2005. From catalogs I wanted Arctic, but when I saw it in person it was a gag color (greeen?). In some sad way, I'm glad I didn't have all my ducks in a row ($$$$) and couldn't get a bmw until late '06 when the 335 came out....lol

TopBack_Mack · 03-14-2014, 07:52 AM

tman · 03-14-2014, 08:30 AM

Thanks!

Alas, I did not take pics before I started working on it, with the exception of one of the interior (which is not the one in the post).
