If you wash it that often then I'm sure your next expense will be detailing the ride!!

I've had my car for nearly 2 years now & am still modding ..... albeit, less & less.

exactly the same here

Tee212 · 11-25-2009, 01:31 AM

I know exactly what you mean, had mine for 1 month now and always find myself cleaning it and browsing the forums for uneeded parts.

Craig@SupremePower · 11-25-2009, 02:23 AM

modding is an addiction

lambtron · 11-25-2009, 03:15 AM

Hell I've owned my 335 less than a week and I've already got mods lined up. I promise to take my sister and gf to disneyland, and I get to spend a day over at AE getting my car modded

bsamoul · 11-25-2009, 04:20 AM

sigh and i'm up at 2:20 am browsing a forum i've been a part of for almost 3 years now. it never ends.

Evil E90 · 11-25-2009, 05:14 AM

Yup....modding a BMW is like being addicted to crack for some. It won't kill you but it will kill your bank account.

bklynbimmer · 11-25-2009, 07:13 AM

A day is not complete until I hit the red line.....what a feeling!

cotmfk · 11-25-2009, 07:16 AM

Well, at least you seem to be learning as much as you can! I am stuck in the mod vs. budget category. Want mods, need more money.... Oh well!

Ender514 · 11-25-2009, 08:04 AM

modding is definitely addicting!

wsybert · 11-25-2009, 08:42 AM

I thought that I could stop at JB+... now have full catback AA exhaust, AA FMIC on the way, downpipes on the way... what's next!?!
I thought the cosmetics would be addicting... I am done with that. More HP!!!!
Always wanted a hot rod... just never thought it would have a roundel on it.

vasillalov · 11-25-2009, 09:45 AM

А на здраве по въпроса!

Поздрави от Чикаго!

eazye · 11-25-2009, 09:51 AM

I am in the same boat as some of you who have it as a weekend driver. I bought it with the intention of driving my "beater" to and from work and then just using the bimmer for running around on weekends. I have had it for 4 months now and have 7K miles on it in that time. And, that is with still driving the work car from time to time. I just can't stop driving it!!! I want to do some mods to it more than tint, M3 spoiler, and lighting, but just not too sure how receptive the other half will be towards it. I really want to change to CF covered trim and a nice set of 19" CLS, despite the feeling on here that they are played out.... The 162's are just so hard to stray away from though, just wish I could get them in 19" reps like some of you did!
