Sport Mode is truly where it is the best ! What a car ! about 12 hours since i got it back, it's already bringing me that smug on my face... That's what i thought too... Maz, you are not afraid the tires will hit the fenderS? Dude the burble of the 335i exhaust is just so mean !! I love it!! it's different from the G35/G37, but still for a stock exhaust, it's very satisfying... even at stand still.

People I'm confused!
I really want to lower the car and the guy I'm dealing with was like a slight drop would be fine. However my colleagues are all saying I shouldnt lower it! I really want to but at the same time I dont want to lose out on safety and possible issues with the car... The guy I talked to was like H&R Sport Springs are just fine...

The only issue with me is that the raods here are quite bad with pot holes and all that stupid shit...I've already hit a pot hole and felt my baby cry.... I dont know man. The lowered car looks awesome but if its gonna harm my baby, I might just not do it! Very confused...

nice car man - great color combo all the way around (including the calipers)..
just IMHO, I don't like the rims/tires; I think the 285 is excessive out back, and of course, sticks out like a sore thumb... just an opinion tho, enjoy your ride!!

Exactly! I'm still talking to those guys. They were like by lowering the car there is less movement so even if I'm driving around with family and I drive over a bump, there's gonna be less movement so no rubbing with the tires. But how stiff will it be? Will I feel everything on the road?

Thanks man! The problem is, that was what I wanted! I like how the tires stick out at the back; it looks very sporty IMO. If I do lower it, I think the car would look nothing short of AMAZING!

Well not very good tbh. But not bad either. I started driving around with my windows down today so I dont really care but this morning I noticed the difference. When you put the car in Eco Pro and stop at a red light the A.S.S. kicks in. So the car stops and the A/C gets really slow. That's when you notice a big difference and feel the heat outside. I'm trying my best to get the hang of A.S.S as I feel it's a pretty neat feature but very annoying at times. For Example, in a stop-go-stop traffic, everytime I stop the car the car turns off. And then it turns on again. But I did notice that once the car turns off, it automatically turns on after a certain period of time. Not sure if this is normal or not?

Well he said this after I spoke with the owner of the dealership. So he knew he couldn't mess around with me...

ive got the same rims (different color) and same size tires. im running h&r sport springs with adaptive m and if you got bad roads, you may want to stay away otherwise it will be bumpy and you will hit some bottoms. especially driving in comfort or eco pro. ive hit some bottoms when in eco pro. which is partly another reason i only drive in sport+ now. but man, when im in sport+ the ride sick. super smooth and i get almost no bounce going over the same areas in eco pro or comfort.
but as far as safety goes, i think the sacrifice is going to be minimal by lowering the car. it aint like you hit a pothole and your car is going to swerve off the corner of the road or anything. but i think you need the drop to complement the look you are going for, the sporty aggressive look |

I like the idea of eco pro....I know alot of people find it annoying....but when you're in stop and go traffic or driving through the city and hitting lights and stop signs, why the hell not preserve some gas?

That's what I've been doing and it's very helpful. The acceleration becomes really hard and that is just what is needed in tight traffic. I'm very happy with Eco pro so far...
