congrats man! sad to see you go, but check in once in a while.

I hope you got the 550!

kaze81

Congrats on the new 5series, want to know which 5 series are you getting? 530/550? Let us know

Carcrazy2

Good choice! You wont be disappointed. You will find that the 5 performs better than your C and it's just as luxurious and more spacious to boot. You aren't giving up anything...

I'll be going back to the 5 too, as soon as I can afford to...

GDawgC220

Nice! Which 5 series? In '07 they're coming out with a V8 TT 545i, 400hp before mods

C43AMG

Tom, good to see you post. Wow, so you're finally gonna get it! Well, at least your lasting memory will be in many people's cars with the custom door pin surrounds! I still get compliments on mine to this day. In fact, even my service advisor liked them and was asking me about them!...hahaha.

Congrats,

I got words from the dealer that a 535i may come out in April, thats the same bi turbo engine currently used on the 335i. One problem though, engine is new, car has to be sold at MSRP, which kinda sucks. I could have gone with a 550i with the money, but until I was offered for a 530i.....price was so good there was no second thought I went with it. So yeah I ordered a 2007 530i with Sport package, Premium package, SMG, Power rear sunshade, Park Distance Control, NAV, and the M-tech body kit installed. Black on Black. I am already searching for a set of black wheels, a black grille, and the AC lip spoiler for it. It should be bad ***....cant wait to get the car.

Drex, I am glad you still remember my door pin surrounds....those are *****ing arent they? Hahah.

Anyways, I will stick around for a little bit til I get the new car set and stone, I will post some pics by then. Til then, take care and be safe out there.

I KOMPRZ

Haha I am sure I will, until I can afford the SLR...I will be back.

GDawgC220

Yup, there have been press releases of a 535i coming with the TT I6. As well as a TT V8 for the 545i.

nlpamg

damn, I didn't even hear about the TTv8 for the 545i, are they going to discontinue the 550? shiiiiiit.

Arn560

I got the door pin surrounds also. Good luck in your quest with the bimmer.
Did your Eclipse work with the steering controls?
I'm Thinking of getting the same thing.

Sauceboy01

i would have understood if you said the new 3 coupe.. but 5 series?? that is one ugly duckling that will never grow into a pretty swan!

yeuchau

you will love the bimmer

I KOMPRZ

I could not agree with you more, but that applies only to a stock looking 5. I've seen a black one with the M kit, rolling on some black staggered's....I tell you its not a swam, its a phoenix. Well theres a reason you love your car....and thats the same I look at the 5. Nothing else matters as long as you enjoy every morning stepping into your garage and you know you love what you see . Am I right?

mannnu81

exactly what kinds of mods you have in mind for something like this? would it be possible to bring it to M5 territory?

ctC230K

oh no!! you're the guy that sold me my first ever benz mod!
i still love my door lock surrounds!

MJ50

sad to hear u r selling w203, tom...
in memory of tom........

5-series is nice but IMHO, the new M3 sedan is nicer

"The 2008-2009 BMW M3 sedan — the first four-door M3 since the E36 — won't look like a regular 3-Series sedan. Instead, it have the same headlights, grille, and front fascia as the two-door 3-series and M3 coupe."

See you on the other side.... We'd love to help you make your Bimmer "Possess the Road" - I think you'll find the aftermarket industry for BMW a little more... exciting...

I KOMPRZ

Hahah hey I still have my surrounds that says "IKOMPRZ"...and they come with the car just in case you are my buyer. I am glad you guys like em....in fact I love them myself. hehe.
Oh and I had a guy who came to me and said "Your $hi!t is gonna fade out in a month no doubt about it and I rather save my $30 in my Savings..."
I guess no one has ever been as regretful as this guy...I feel sorry for him. Looks like all your surrounds made it through the first months huh?!...and the 2nd...and the 3rd.......and what is it now? the 24th? HAHHAHA


The new M3 is nice, I heard its a V8 too. But I can't wait that long....I have been waiting for the 5 for toooooo long...Drex knows huh?! hahah.
