What did you do to your F3X today?

Calvin36 · 01-21-2018, 10:30 PM

Got tires on the ready! Finally, I'll get to get rid of the runcraps.

TBro2002 · 01-21-2018, 10:48 PM

After long day yesterday negotiating purchase at dealership, took my new ride, a 2015 335i M-Sport out for its first drive today. So I'm now part of the F30 family. Previously we had a 2015 228i, traded that for an X1 3 weeks ago for wife to drive. So I got this for me to drive. Picked up at dealer as a BMW Certified Pre-Owned with 23k miles on it, still looks like new. Love the performance and handling on drive today.

Those are Firestone Indy 500s - I am planning these next.

Please, please give me some steering, noise and ride feedback on these. Not a terribly common selection, or are they just that new?

Pretty please

Added a 10inch JL audio sub. great and cheap audio upgrade that makes up for the missing low end bass. I feel like im in college again slappping the BASS everywhere

Congrats!
Just curious: was the car sold with the blacked-out grill from the dealership? If so, good for you.

It's relatively new, pretty much the old Bridgestone RE003, which had good reviews as well.

Yes, sold with blacked out grill. I'm figuring the person that had the lease on it changed it out. One of the reasons I wanted the car.

Yeah, I like them a lot. Definitely add extra protection with those high cornering sides

Sure will - hoping the weather holds so I can get it installed... tracking not updated...

can't wait

TBro2002 · 01-23-2018, 07:04 PM

Detailed the interior of my recently purchased 335i M-Sport (pictures above). Cleaned and conditioned the leather seats.

Tomorrow bring it back to dealer to replace back bumper cover. It had a small chunk of paint damage they could not touch up, so they are replacing the whole bumper cover. They'll also fix a couple of other paint chips. Get loaner car for a day.

Congratulations man !!

p.s. Have you noticed how it says "YELLO" on the screen ? ))
[yello - " A super hybrid form of both yo and hello, making a super greeting"]

I realize that this is just a name of band/track, but find it cool how it was captured on the image right after you purchased the car; like a positive sign

Congrats man!! Beautiful color!

ny176 · 01-23-2018, 09:40 PM

Picked her up last week with 10,400 miles. Replacing a 2015 228xi m sport that's up in March. A 60 degree day, had to do a quick power wash and finish off with the No rinse Wash.

Few differences I've noticed so far from the 15' 228xi minus the B58 engine,
1. Seats seem a little bit more firmer than the 2 series m sport seats
2. Steering is Definitely stiffer on comfort and sport more than the 2015

. On sport mode, it feels almost identical to my previous E90. Which I couldn't be more happy!

First order of business is 35% tints.

Ran these on the track last summer. They're a performance bargain right now considering the price. Great traction once up to temperature, gave great feedback at the limit and broke away very linearly. Fairly quiet on the highway as well. Wet traction was OK, but nothing amazing. Considering these are half the price of PSS's, I plan to continue to use them for DD and track duty until I work my way up to dedicated R-comps.
