Introducing Smokey

Smokey-6MT · 08-24-2014, 02:57 PM

Hello all. Been trolling the forum for a while and decided to join today.

Had my first E90 a couple of years ago. It was a lease and I fell in love with it. Only thing missing was a manual trans. When the lease ended I found Smokey. He'd been traded in and was sitting on the lot for a while, due to the 6 speed MT.

I snapped him up as a CPO with extended warranty for a crazy bargain. Has some blemishes in both front and rear bumpers, but otherwise he's clean and mechanically he's impeccable.

I look forward to reading more of the interesting posts from all, and picking up some DIY tips from other members.

Here's a pic of Smokey. My other shots are too large and need to resize them. Will share later on.
