Congrats Mike! You got a gem right there, 19s will finish this car off to perfection, the 18s just dont do it justice!

Wish you many happy and safe kms bud!

Congratulations on a fantastic purchase....and believe me you have a 1 of kind e90 335 on your hands...well done. . The previous owner would have definitely paid an arm and leg for all that [SMILING FACE WITH OPEN MOUTH]....your gain.

Hope you enjoy her, and may you be granted many safe and trouble free kilos with the car. As I was told when I purchased mines, welcome to the " REAL Dark side " [SMILING FACE WITH OPEN MOUTH]

They lied, drive behind me at the next meet and see what "Dark side" is about...one uncle in Durbs stopped at a robot after seeing me hooning it a bit and asked if my car is okay because all he sees is derty, derty thick black smoke and my car disappears then he sees me after it clears up :roflol::roflol::roflol:

Since i took off the 320d badge...think Uncle thought my car was a petrol car and was graveyard ready :roflol::roflol::roflol:

Too much sex on this thread. Beautiful car, gorgeous details. Many happy miles.

 

[Mike-R]

HAHAHA, Too much SEX.. Thank you very much everyone, i already feel like i have one of the rarest kits in SA. Have any of you ever seen one of these kits somewhere else?

I was gonna take some more pics in the afternoon sun but it started raining on the way home, so the car is now a little dirty, will wash and pamper her a bit on Saturday and take some good pics.

WRT the wheel, I already have my eye on the style 313's. Ill enjoy the ride as is for now and maybe mid year ill seriously start shopping for 313's.

..............Thank you very much everyone, i already feel like i have one of the rarest kits in SA. Have any of you ever seen one of these kits somewhere else?.......

Nope, not seen the M-Performance kit in the flesh, but you certainly have one rare 335i. Which gbox is fitted to yours?
And I'm not at all jealous.

 

[Mike-R]

Hahaha. Thanks 3 speed. I have the auto box with paddle shift. I'm sure it's the msport also.

 

[UpNcOmiNg!]

What an epic car man!
raise:
Geez thats an awesome awesome purchase. All factory fitter. Definitely need the 313's now or the other performance rims. Gosh that is just too hot man.

Congrats on an awesome awesome car man. :inlove:

This is officially the only e90 335i I'd buy :fencelook:

 

[Gordvisr]

[kabal]

The carbon interior looks awesome.

I'm in the minority, but I prefer the MSport front bumper:fencelook:
That rear is great though

Hey guys, My name is Mike, i have been on here for a few months gathering info on N54 and N55 Engines as the 335I have been one of my dream cars to own.

So on the 20th of December my self and my wife walked in at BMW Clearwater to go and see one of the dealers there that just added a 335I to the auto-trader website, but we didnt know what the car looked like as the picture on the site was just a general BMW picture, and just to look around and take a stroll.

As we walked in i saw the 335I i have seen in my area a few times and i knew, this is it... This is the one i want. Christo from Clearwater walked up and started chatting, soon after that i was in the driver seat for a test drive, MAN, thats it, its sold to ME.

BMW Clearwater was nice enough to borrow me a car as we were on our way to Richards Bay while they were getting the car ready for collection.

We arrived back from holiday and picked up the car on 5th Jan 2015, Great XMAS gift if you ask me.

So thanks to Christo from Clearwater and the great service, i am now a very happy BMW 335I LCI Owner.

The dealership replaced the Windscreen, Gear-lever as it was peeling of and all you could see was white plastic and 2 brand new rear tires.

As we collected the car i took it for a quick N3 drive and found the car was a little unstable doing well over 170 km\h, i pulled in at Tiremart and did the balancing and alignment, after that the car was back to normal.

Thanks for looking and sorry for the long story.

Here's some pics below, ill take a few more when the car is in the sun.

Just before i collected.






And a few in the Basement where i park it when i drive her, Notice the car has full Carbon Fibre inserts, i was very lucky to get this.

Oooo Carbonfibre :inlove: imp: :clap:

 

[Mike-R]

Thanks bud. I also love the CF on this car.

My wife nicked the right CF splitter a while ago. Scraped underneath and slightly cracked. It's friggen tiny. But BMW wants 6k for this.

Probably the ugliest interior trim I've ever seen. Let me swop with you so you don't have to see it daily....😈
