Congrats and welcome! Like you, it took me a while to find my 335...roughly a year. But good things come to those who wait.

Looking good!

Awesome job on the car mate. I spent around 2 years finding the right car. Also didn't help that I used some of the loan money for some holidays and then had to borrow more.

The 335D is a monster! Massive torque if you remap or juice box it!

I was considering plastidipping my wheels black but I think I'll get some CSL replicas in matt grey.

Have fun!

wheels are just temp to take bad look away and get me through winter...will be going into ecotune for dpf removal and remap when weather has cleared up..wow 2 years i could never have waited that long i would have just bought something lol

decided to dress up the engine bay and give the car a full detail..its hard to get the white to look good but think it turned out nice...10 hours spent on it but will get it even better after the winter...
