Default I got a new car !

Yup, i got a new car

I still have the compact though so dont panic

But i picked up an E90

ive always liked the shape, and it was at a good price through work so its done a dusted !!

Heres a pic of my girl and me taking it away after work



its only a 2.0 (4cyl) but its nice and normal.

And considering where i work , it wont be long until its up to "standard"

Hope u all like the new addition

Awesome! Out of all the new Bimmers the E90 is my favorite, especially with those wheels. Great find Mallard.

obviously not in the US

lol Mallard, it's "only a 2.0"? isn't your compact a 1.6?
it does seem like a small engine for so much car though, how's it accelerate?

my 2nd car was a 88 mustang. 2.3 Liter.. ..... i was scared to drive it.. wayyyy to freakin slow.. first car has a 1.6 Liter (ford).. and i could peel rubber through 3 gears.. it was probally lighter then the Smart Car.


anyway.. its a really nice car.. wish i had the cash.. and its a BMW i am sure it is fast

Don't be so sure. We just got the 335d's and the X5 diesels. A 1 series diesel in the US could happen!

Thanks Marv that made my girls day

the 90 is quicker than the compact considering its size, it is faster and better on fuel.

the engine is a 2.0 i gasoline, and gets me about 700 kms to a tank

i got i lowered today , but i didnt get pictures yet
