New Addition! With Pics!

This is the newest addition to the family, just picked it up today... Alpine white













It's a 3.0 and only needs a few things replaced which I'll be doing later, and some touch ups here and there, tan interior and xenons. It has a 102,000 miles on it or so and is in great mechanical shape, for only 15,500 (haggled down from 16,000 since it needs some minor work) very smooth and handles and brakes like a smaller car.

Mainly it's going to be my sister's car when she's in college and after (when I don't take it ).

He's right, if you mention your sis you have to post pics.... it's in the rules.

I need to get everyone in my family to upgrade to BMW's, that would so cool.

Yeah that's my Dad's 740i in the background. I love his car, it's insanely comfortable (the seats are squishy soft, but firm, like really nice boobs), and very clean. He also has the M sport wheels on it, you know the 10 spoke ones? And no sister pics. Ew.

Wiper blades. That's the first thing I change on cars I buy.

Good luck with the new purchase. Nice collection. No wonder you spend a lot of time on UB.c
