    Hey everyone,

    Just dropping an intro about myself for the group.  I purchased my first BMW back in may of 14.  It is a 2009 BMW 335xi.  Current mods are alpina flash, some various custom coding, JB4, DCI, and a little bit of a custom exhaust.  It is sitting on the sport wheels with a M-tech lip and spoiler and Tein S-tech springs.  Overall this car is probably the most fun to drive of any car i've owned (why I bought it).  As far as planned mods, the car probably will not get much more.  I am avidly trying to get into the "big leagues" of car audio competition so most of my free time and money goes there. I have a guy I work with that has been pushing me to get on here, so I figured it was about time to do so.  Hope to meet you all eventually!

                      by far my favorite 335 body style. Pat and I disagreed on this because I love the coupe and he doesn't. So I tried knocking sense into him with a 9 iron. Now he's too much of a vegetable to ever come around and see how awesome the 335 e92 coupe is.

                        HA!  I made my case against the coupe body style and if I remember correctly it made sense to you!  We might disagree on it but my reasoning is sound.

                          Being a e92 owner I would love to hear why you think the e90 is better.

                                  The E92 rear still stands out in 2015, especially with the tailights. The entire profile of the car is sleek and it has a great stance. 

                                  The E90 is totally non-descript in this day and age. I mistake newer Hyundais and Accords for an E90 back end all the time, largely due to tail lights more than anything else. 

                                  But I also drive a car that is very polarizing itself, so I shouldn't be surprised. The 1er looks very unique and I like it that way, but lots of people think 135s are hideous, usually because they don't fit the bill of most modern yuppies who think a 3-series sedan is somehow classy. Ironically this qualifies most people that live in my neighborhood and demand uniformity in their houses and the cars parked outside them. And now everyone knows why I never invite any of my neighbors into my house, and live on the corner edge of my subdivision at an odd angle that allows me to look at a park and river rather than people I wouldn't brake for if they fell down in the road. 

                                  aaaaaaand i've lost the plot....

                                    Although I would own a sedan (e90 M3's are badass) the e92 looks sportier, especially in the rear.

                                        Are you F'n kidding me. The e90 has a short ass little narrow looking trunk/rear end. Now if that aint blah. Not to mention 4 doors are a dime a dozen. I think we need a poll on this subject.
