NewE90 member with pictures from Germany

hotsand5 · 12-02-2005, 02:21 PM

Hey guys, i'm proud to finally be able to be a part of your community. I just got rid of my VW, so i've been a European car fan for a while. I just bought a new 330i and did the European delivery last week. I picked it up in Munich, Germany and had an awsome time driving all over the country; from Munich, to Stuttgart, Dusseldorf, Duisburg, Boblingen, Cologne, etc. etc. Its a damn shame that I didn't take more pictures, but here are just a few of them. I'll have some of the movies that I took up as well later on (and some of them including me taking the car to the limiter 155 mph, chasing aston martins, porshe's (although there was no competition there) Z4's, as well at other E46's.) What an awsome car! Now I just have to wait for the car to be shipped to Chicago, and they told me anywhere from 4-8 weeks! That sucks, and I just want to see if anybody out there has done the European Delivery and see how long it took for you; and hopefully a lot sooner.

Hi Tony,

Enjoy your car and don´t forget to post the pics!

Ok, here's my car in Pordenone, Italy. Parked at a Coop Supermarket Grocery store parking lot. Did you know that Only Chrysler Grand Cherokees were sold here with only diesel engines? The're very popular among Italians and Europeans.

hotsand5 · 12-04-2005, 05:07 PM

damn, the white with the sport package looks sweet! ~~too bad for the headlight reflectors though, would look much better clear.

davinet78 · 12-08-2005, 07:15 AM

Ha ha. Reading literally I think he was asking if he'd taken the car to the [Nürburg]ring.
Nice pics. I recognise a couple of those roads...
