This thing is super cool. Congrats! I have had such a touring itch lately, and now I think it just got way worse.

Might need to do a space gray, n52 long roof photo shoot soon. Never saw that aero kit before, looks perfect. Fantastic e91.

Welcome to the road trip club.

Wow, looks like an awesome find. The body kit and wheels really transform the whole package in a cool way. Not over the top.

Well bought, KBB is usually way off on low volume special models. 

another non-eventfull road trip. Making it look to easy. Everyone is going to want to go get one.

[SteelBlue]

Well this car is an absolute dream.

Great pick up.

[i_love_cars]

Holy shit dude. Great pickup. That thing looks amazing you will have to bring it to a WIBimmer meet. It is crazy just how much better these cars look with the M-sport package.

Sounds like a great idea to me, RA is a pretty cool spot for photos!

Other than that, I'm just going to enjoy it as is for now! 

Why do I even try to tell myself this lie...

Got a deal on some AFE catless midpipes (ceramic coated too) to turn up the BMW performance exhaust a bit, and have a euro-market air intake box and European headlight switch (enables rear fogs, for maximum euro-ness) on the way from eastern Europe. Looking forward to digging into this!

I'll also be taking this to the RA autocross on the 23rd, should be a good time

Isn't there a lego mod for the rear fogs?  I thought I saw something about installing a lego behind the dead panel to enable the rears since they were prewired.

Yup! That's basically what I'm doing with mine, except instead of modifying the dead panel to function as a button I found a euro switch with a rear fog button for like $8 from the same place I'm getting the intake box from. The switch is the wrong one for a car with xenons/rain sensor/etc. and doesn't have the aluminum trim on the knob, so I'm going to swap over the rear fog button (and the white piece behind it that people substitute with a lego/wire nut/etc) into my original switch.

Oh no! This thing is going to sound even more KILLER?!?  Shame.... 

[m42b32]

Got this out for the autocross at RA on Sunday, had a blast!! It handles pretty well considering it's on worn/mismatched tires... some 18's with wider front rubber and matching tires front/rear should do a lot to counter the massive amounts of understeer I was experiencing (the slippery slope of motorsport is real). Ended up in 6th of 8 in D street, and 77th out of 128 overall, not bad!

Your car looks at home at RA. Pic from the hawk.

Thanks! That's a nice pic!

So this is a noob question, but I  thought that those headlights with the LED grid style turn indicators were specific to diesels. I assume I  am incorrect in making that assumption?

Those are the e90 LCI xenon headlights which were available as an option on all e90's from 2009-2012, so it's possible that the 335d only existed as an LCI model and because it was more expensive it probably regularly got the optional headlights? Not really sure!

[suspenceful]

Any LCI (2009+) E90 (sedan) or E91 (wagon) will have those headlights.

God, this wagon looks so good.
