As I always said my 1st car was a BMW and my last will be a BMW.. Welcome my new 2007 e90 335i sedan!!!

1) Gillian-1985 325e Cosmos Blue w/240k miles before i plowed into someone running a red light.
2) Geneveve-1995 325i Alpine White w/284k miles and still running strong. I'm keeping her as a every other week swap and drive car.
3) Guinevere-2007 335i Titan Silver Sport package (yes it has the oil cooler!) w/ 14k miles on her!

My impressions: This car is disgustingly fast. As you see from my past two cars they werent the fastest. Hell, when I started getting beat by crappy hondas and dodges in my 325i it was time for some revenge. I opted for the 335i which I got for 33k out the door w/ 14k miles and CPO Warranty. So far its been a blast and I am trying to figure out the i-drive.

My camera is charging but pics coming up soon!

Absolutely...The e36 will be my semi-beater. It still looks and runs great. I find it to be sorely lacking in power. When you get your arse handed to you by a Toyota Corolla XRS its time to upgrade...

It's funny, we have similar cars!

1) 1987 325es. Cinnabar Red w/Pearl interior. Had 185K miles then traded it. Light mods to it-back in the late 80s, there was no real aftermarket.

2) 1994 325is. Hellrot w/Black interior. Still have it-use it for autox and track events now-suspension, engine bolt-ons, exhaust, etc. Over 260K miles and running strong. Put it on the dyno at 230K miles and it showed 184 hp to the wheels and ran a 14.9 at the drag strip.

3) 2007 335i. Jet Black w/Saddle Brown. Love this car!

Beautiful car! Do you anticipate 200,000+ miles on the 335, too?

200k miles on the 335i? Man I hope so! Every BMW I have owned thus far has been bullet proof engine wise. I can hopefully keep that tradition going! Jed! You rock man and yes our cars are VERY SIMILAR... Personally I love sedans, I hate moving my seats for people...
