Hahaha I have to admit the E46 TI did look rather odd (especially because in my opinion it didn't really resemble the E46 sedan/ci in any way unlike the E36 compacts did with the E36 sedan/coupe).
But back in 2012 when I drove my brothers 325ti, I've got to admit I started falling for the car (especially the sound).
Welcome to the forum bro, good looking E46 you have there.
