Cool 330xi-ting

My name's Brady and I just joined up to share my '06 330xi. I got it this July at 167 k miles and I've been loving it since (currently 174 k). It's been smooth sailing aside from $2500 worth of hit and ran damage in a parking lot the first month. Thanks, anonymous POS. It's a 6MT (duh!), Jet black with black guts, window tints from previous owner, but unfortunately no sport package. I live in Durango, CO where this thing's going to be a serious mountain car, so x-drive is the way for me!

I decided to go with an Active Autowerke 91 octane tune to start. That was done up in Loveland at SCR Tuning in August. That's the only upgrade aside from 20mm spacers on all 4 corners done in September. The clear coat on a couple wheels was in rough shape due to New England winters where the car has spent its life so far. That and distaste for chrome led to toying with Plasti Dip as you'll see in the photos. Next on the list is a roof rack for the boards/skis/bikes.

This is my 2nd Bimmer after a 2002 330xi I had a few years back. I have driven a countless amount though and have a real soft spot for them. More recently, I've been in the Volvo game with my '99 S70 T5 5MT I've driven from 286 k to 314 k (not a typo)! I've spent more money modding the thing than it's even worth, and it's in incredible shape (also noticeably faster than the 330). It's still around, but I'm working on selling it.

Here are some chronological pictures of my new baby:













And my Volvos just for kicks:





Thanks for reading!
