(F31) Official 3-Series Touring picture thread

Inglewood. No, no e91, wasn’t enough of an upgrade. And the f31 msport stylistically is superior in looks to me over the e91. Also It’s now grown to about the same size as my first Bmw wagon! I have an e46/3 and had an e34/2 (22-24mpg) which I swapped to manual.

Wondering if anyone else has that same muffler on their f31 and if that drone is a common thing on the wagon.

I have a dual exhaust MPE from a 340i with resonator deleted on my 330i - no drone at any point in the power band.

For this winter, decided to change the wheels to 442's sleeping in my garage for a while. Wrapped them in Ultragrip Performance+ and added H&R spacers. Works excellent for the mostly dry and wet winter here, so much better than the original 397's with squared RFT Continentals.

Our last weekend in the Texas hill country, spent it in ATX so we could get our urban hike in before we have to return to HTX, the land of power lines, billboards and endless chick-filet franchises.

Here's mine lowered with 19's

erickonphoenix · 11-13-2020, 06:05 PM

another shot from Austin last Sunday.

FYI: I'm 90% positive the puddle in the lower right hand corner is pee.

20" Velgen VMB7's I believe.

The process was pretty simple, since it uses all the factory hangers. The only modification needed was to get a reducer welded on.

Take a look at this thread

Sure thing. Send me a DM next time you're this way and have free time. Would love to hear about your hill country trip too.

Tell me about it...and pictures did no justice. Selling that e91 was one of my biggest car regrets to date.

Going to be a bit controversial here, but that interior looks very dated now - wood effect panels are just a no no
