finally an owner of an E90......

Well, after three years with my 2007 Z4....I picked up a 2010 328i alpine white/beige leather sedan. I absolutely love the steering on the car. (Stiffer than the steering on the Z) The pickup on the car isn't that bad either. A lot of people say it is slow, but it's not too bad. (no 335i of course)


I used to be on the e90 section of bimmerpost more then the z4 section, and now i have a reason to be haha...

Yup those would be it!

I would recommend doing new struts though. Those ZSPs on the car tolerated springs from 2800 miles til the day I returned it. They wont take springs again.

Prices are coming down a little for koni yellow or Koni FSDs. I might know someone who has a set of yellows he took off his car...

Unless you bring it in for a suspension noise then they will say something.

But otherwise they usually dont care.
