      Welcome! I actually live down in South Carolina during the school year (I go to The Citadel in Charleston). I have a quick question for you, do you know of any southeast or maybe even South Carolina forum/clubs I could get into? I'm having trouble connecting down here and it seems like all the forum I do find are dead.

          They are primarily Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina. Not to mention that the biggest BMW meet in the southeast "4ngieFest" is in a couple weeks.

          wtf brah I'm jordan. Shit this is gonna get confusing. Not sure how i feel about this  :huh:

          we have a meet on oct. 18th be sure to come. 

          advice for winter: buy a beater. Seriously. I use a 1999 Corolla with rust, dents, cracked windshield, mismatched hood, 250k+ miles.   :lol:

          Unfortunately I didn't budget for winter beeter unless someone will be willing to take payments of $500 a month for one. Otherwise it looks like I will be using the gallon of waxy stuff suggested about 😕

          Thanks for the welcome everyone. Please let me know any other meets of gathering you will be having

              you can get a beater for 500 bucks and usually fix it up a bit. I got my corolla for free cuz it didn't start and had been sitting for 10 months - $8 in spark plugs later from autozone, fresh oil and a fresh gallon of gas, and 2.5 minutes of cranking, the car turned over. 

              If you aren't getting a beater, then you absolutely should get snow tires for your 1er. But if you get snow tires, I would assert that the same dollar amount would buy you a beater

                Once snow and twice Ice (which we mostly get in Georgia) and they don't plow it. How ever I am living in New Berlin and travelling into Milwaukee where I hear they plow.

                I was debating a beater but my main concerns are:

                Breaking down in the snow and cold, and heat and comfort of course.

                I was all for buying the beeter but I am slighty looking forward to the morning self start timer for the heat that comes with my IDrive.....

                I'm planning on having my coolant, battery done next week and looking at possible winter/ or allseason tires. Any suggestions?

                This is of course If I don't go the beater option

                  blizzaks are among the best snow tires you can buy. 

                  where in new berlin are you? I grew up in New Berlin and go there quite often to visit parents
