<![CDATA[Hello]]>Hi everyone,

I met a bunch of you at the cruise earlier in the month but thought I'd say hi to everyone.

My name is Lars, I'm in La Crosse which is full of Honda's and Subaru's which makes me sad, and is why I drove 3 hours to come meet and drive with you guys.

I currently have an 06 330xi that is new to me as of September and I'm completely smitten with (pictures below). Before that I had a black 03 325i which had a lot of character but even more flaws that I didn't know about until after I bought it. It was my first car and while I feel like I made a bad financial decision with it, I still love it and miss it some days. 

I'm from Germany originally where my BMW fandom started when my Dad had what must have been an E30, and my mom brought home a brand new E46 many years ago. We didn't have much money usually, so those cars left quite the impression on me. 

Fast forward to 2011 and my Step dad leased a brand new 328i, which eventually became the car I learned to drive in, and is probably why I pursued an E90 as soon as I had an excuse to do so.

Enough about me, pics below (I just put white LED's in today after the drivers side bulb died on me).

Also still searching for a car, I'll take a look at the one @Rekpoint posted if this next one falls through as well.

That's why I gave up on trying to buy one 5 months ago and bought my wagon instead. Combined with the seller being in the Chicago area, this was bound to end in failure. 

For every 1 worthwhile seller there's 10 who are just complete tools.

Damn, that sucks. Did you at least get your deposit back?

Yeah he sent that back, its just such a shitty way to lose out on a great car. The whole point of a deposit is to hold the car for me, it was a done deal. Time to search high and low again.

So the buzz is gone and I got screwed, the car is gone.

I sent the guy a deposit and was waiting for the results of an inspection from his local dealer, but got a call instead that he sold the car to someone else. Needless to say I'm not happy, and now back in the market for another car.

Such a shame, it was everything I wanted and he screwed me over to get $500 more, 5 days earlier.

And thanks! I'm excited to pick it up next week hopefully. I still want to see yours again, hopefully you get it running again soon.

Montego Blue, sports, cold weather and premium packages, 6 speed, no idrive, and only 62k miles. Already has bolt ons on it, I'll just need to pick up a nice set of wheels, get it walnut blasted and switch the tune to MHD.

I'm still interested in grabbing a nice E46 M3 if one happens to come available for a good price, but they are so hard to find in good shape for less than 15k.
