Thought I'd introduce myself, my names Ash, I'm 20 and drive a 320I Coupe...this is the first Bimma I've had and must say lovin' every minute. Had a few mixed feelings about my ride on other BM forums...seems the majority of owners prefer OEM and Subtle mods where as I'm the opposite.

Anyway there's my introduction, cya round!

Thats one hell of a mean lookin' bimmer, get us some pictures of your interior too, i wanna see this kicker sound system your advertising in your signature, as i want - but canot afford, a kicker sound system.

seems the majority of owners prefer OEM and Subtle mods where as I'm the opposite.

I personaly prefer the more subtle body mods (oem body parts mainly), Because BM's look so cool to start out with, and original bmw body parts make them look even better for the enthusist.

Wow...
I was expecting just a little sound system, didnt know you were going competition grade on me...
Where does the shoping go! lol.
Amazing example, I like

 

[Drive-By]

LOL! Thought I'd sursprise you. Systems currently running two red tops but I'm looking at getting a third as the two batteries that are in can just about cope.

As for shopping, it's not the most practical of cars....other than the footwells there's no storage [thumbd]

 

[foolonrampage]

RIDICULOUS SYSTEM!!! Thats madd awesome!!! hahaha. I want my whip to bounce me with a sound system like that, too. haha. How long did it take you to mod/upgrade to where it is right now?
