New to BMW

Hello to all,
I am a new owner of my first BMW car..I purchased a like new 325i conv. and am in the process of determining what to add/mod!!!
As A Ducati enthusiast I am familiar how out of hand this can get...
So...Where to start???
THe engine has @129K on it...burns no oil,runs smooth,accellerates smartly..seems to getr unsettled a bit over series bumps...top is near new..interior is near new..I paid 3K...steering is tight...no wander..it has 4 lug rims,14in...I would like to go 5 lug if possible...or will go to 15in rims w/ new tires..though the 14s have good life left...
I am changing oil,timiiing belyt and fuel filter...inmspecting brakes,measuring rotors for spec...Suggestions??
Looking forward to some guidance for suspension mods...lowering springs,shocks and struts.
I am NOT a heavy handed driver...but appreciate a sweet driving car.

Too cooL your car is 2 years older than mine. I have the 1989 325 cabrio. To me this style of convertible is timeless! I can sit and stare at it all day long. My mind goes crazy with thought on how to make her even more awesome. My car is white with tan interior and a black top. What about yours?
