New 340 owner intro

Golo2016 · 03-13-2017, 06:29 PM

Hi to all, i've been lurking for awhile now, I just purchased this CPO, it's my first BMW and I love it! Coming from the Subaru world this is a big step up. It's the perfect car IMO in terms of a sport sedan standpoint.
Sorry, but tried to rotate it to no avail.

Congrats.

Welcome OP! You'll learn more from these forums than you ever probably wanted to know...good and bad.

But mostly, have a great time driving!

jparnes1 · 03-14-2017, 09:13 AM

Welcome. How about some more details about your car?

Beek · 03-14-2017, 01:41 PM

Welcome and that is a fine looking ride. No problem with the picture orientation, I just tilted the laptop on it's side, but if I'd been at my desktop this might have gotten ugly.

Welcome!

uncleruckus · 03-14-2017, 02:32 PM

Beautiful 340

Lets see some interior pics too!

bimmer456 · 03-14-2017, 02:37 PM

Congrats on your new car!

As a fellow non-M 340i owner, I welcome you to the board.
Looking forward to more pics.

Welcome!

mannymazz · 03-14-2017, 06:31 PM

Congrats, enjoy!

Golo2016 · 03-14-2017, 07:18 PM

Thanks everybody! And i'm sorry about the picture, I tried several times to fix it to no avail. The interior is beige with the walnut trim. I will post some more pics after this mess with the winter storm Stella. I already order some all black wheels (although wife think they will look ugly) Meh...what chu know bout that woman!

Also order the black gloss grills along with the trunk lip, painted the same color grey. That will be it, although i'm so tempted to chip it, but coming from the Subaru world, i'm kinda tired of being panicked every time you get a bad tank of gas. I'm too old for that ****

Besides, this car is the perfect DD IMO.

Car looks great but I'm digging the old square body chevy in the background.
