SO I'm a newbie to E90. I used to be on E46fanatics back in the day. after my e46's, I had a x5 4.6,Audi tt sline and then finally did up a sl500 ( on MBWORLD ). During that time I got married & had to get rid of the 2 seater as we decided to start a family, and now that out boy is almost 3, my wife wanted me to have a fun car again. My wife recently started working at xxx in sales. She knows that overall the best cars we have had are the 3 series. A deal came along at her dealership and she was able to get a crazy deal for us. As xxx has to have a car PERFECT for re-sale this was the best , as I would change the wheels etc anyway.So for my 40th so asked me if I wanted to get this car....I was all over it except the fact we JUST got a 4 door mini for a 1 yr lease( at her work rate) as a a-b work car for her. But its only 10 mo left and wasn't gonna let this deal go.

So we got a 2007 e93 335i cabrio. 105KM ( 1 owner since new). Car is 100% BMW inspected and needed a new DME, which they replaced before we bought it @ a cost of $2200cdn

car has sport pkg, auto tran,comfort access,wood trim,usb audio,sport seats,sport suspension,sport wheel w/paddle shift. The car is beautiful. It needed new fogs as were pitted/faded bad and new rears> current are winters and low wear inner wall. I don't plan on driving till spring, so this was perfect to allow some time to add mods and pay them off!

We got a smoking deal as she works there and her boss did her a favor as it was for my 40th.


didn't have extra key and only winter rims..which again is all in my favor price wise

Here's a list of MODS ORDERED AND ON THE WAY.

i wont sleep till they are ordered..LOL

rather find a deal, get it done..so i can get it installed over winter and have it ready for spring. just sucks the CDN $ is SO LOW right now..kills the pocket and finding a deal just to pay stupid exchange rate.

In a pic the are decent In person they are small. 17". Tires were shot( winter tires ). It needed new rubber, part of reason I got a good deal. I will keep for winter set up. They also will need spacers as sit inside.
