It's refreshing to see a clean modded ride. Keep up the good work

Olagüe · 01-02-2008, 09:23 AM

nice car!

Rick Hunter · 01-02-2008, 11:25 PM

WOW... that is arguably the best damn looking E92 I have EVER seen. Good Job!

vladinecko · 01-02-2008, 11:57 PM

that looks absolutely AMAZING! i should have ordered my E92 in that color. i just didn't want to make the move without first seeing it in person and they didn't have any on the lot.

krnshinsa · 01-03-2008, 12:13 AM

what are your offsets on the m6 reps if you dont mind me asking

astra · 01-03-2008, 03:06 AM

Very nice colour

Not really feeling the wheels though...

First off the car is sick!
I've only seen an e93 in that color and I have to say it is definitely wayyyyyyyy underrated. Its much nicer in real life than on the website.
Second I actually tied to get that same vanity plate a few months back from the DMV and was totally surprided to find out that someone else had it! Figures I would see it on this site.
Awesome lookin ride!!

pdjafari · 01-03-2008, 10:00 PM

love teh car dude, i have a 335xi coupe as well. I was looking at coilovers and followed alot of your threads. I am thinking of going with the HR co's you got as well. WHich model did you order?? Are they the standard 335i coilovers?? I read in the suspension forums that a member states for the XI you need to remove the axles to install COs....

Dont ask me...lol, ive never heard of such a thing, he also mentioned corner weighting??

rzm3 · 01-03-2008, 11:39 PM

the c/o is officially approved for 328xi coupe(50495-2), and is being approved for 335xi coupe according to a technical manager at H&R. No you don't need to remove the axles.

Corner balancing is unnessesary unless you track your car (also according to the manager at H&R) because wheel gaps may have a huge variation (off by 1/2", etc) to have an even distribution of force on each wheel.

GL!

Congrats on e92 of the month! I think you have convinced me to save myself some money on rims and go with M6 reps like you have instead of going with DPE's for nearly 4 times the price. I think you def need to take more pics of this car, how about some in the light now?

...what he said! Very tasteful job. I would love to see pics of it in sunlight.

eurospek · 01-05-2008, 03:23 PM

Your exterior color is insane!!

triton3k · 01-05-2008, 05:29 PM

thats a very sick looking color.

ianbiz · 01-05-2008, 08:03 PM

Nice!! I like the plate too.

DTM_P0W3R · 01-06-2008, 07:30 PM

YAY!!!!!!!!
car of the month is back!!!!!!!!

beatiful car...changed my whole perspective of m6 reps

jaserion · 01-06-2008, 07:36 PM

congrats! just so you know that you've inspired me to do similar mods to my e92 335xi as well. i just can't find a reputable shop in NYC-area to trust them with my car. i was even thinking of pm'ing you on this board and ask about your shop. i know that it's far, but i really dislike how my car sits so high with stock suspensions.

Bud Fox · 01-06-2008, 10:21 PM

That rusty orange color is NOT Barbera Red. It is called (Horribly) Barrique Red, and it is AWFUL.

I have a 2008 Barbera Red 335I Convertible, and it is HOTT.

Can't figure out the picture/post thing though, but when it is cleaned & polished iot is the baddest bitch on the block.
