I got a bmw
Heres an instagram I took the day I got it (only 4 days ago). I want to clean it up and fix a couple issues before I take the glamor shots.

Nice, I had an E39 a couple of years ago, and then I went to a 135I that had bolt ons. My current car is an E60 M5.
You're going to want to use the Castrol 10W60 from BMW. Its about 15 a quart. |

Yeah, I usually just buy the OEM stuff since I can get it at the dealer.
I dunno if the E39 M5 eats oil like the E60, but all E60's need a quart added every 1500 or so miles. I keep a quart in the trunk. |

Congrats on the new purchase.
I have a 96 Z3, 98 M3 convertible and a 00 M roadster. They are all fun in their own way. Saving now for an e39 M5. Love the way they drive.

 Got the windshield replaced, sent out the rearview mirror to get rebuilt... Need to figure out what to do with that front plate holder. If I take it off there will be holes in the bumper. Someone sells color matched plugs, but I dunno if I want to spend 30 dollars on 50 cents worth of plastic... Also I tried upgrading the software on my mk3 navi computer and messed it up pretty good. I got access to a new cd burner today, hope it comes back to life... Last edited by rotarychainsaw; 06-03-2014 at 11:09 AM. |

IMO a couple of small holes look better than the plate holder though. Front plates are the main reason why I wont move back to NJ. |

Congrads on the purchase... why is it I can't see this thread let alone any other thread in the general BMW subforum?
