Default No more FWD, My new project!

Just picked up a BMW 325ci Sport Package a few days ago....this will be my new project! I can't wait to start!

After a life of B and C series front wheel drive Hondas and Acuras, I figured it was time for a little "change". Hopefully it's for the best this time....

Here's the reason why I decided to make the switch...


And my new WIP (work in progress)







I foresee myself complaing about gas prices in the near future

Thanks for the comments.

As for the price of parts, I did consider that when purchasing....fortunately, for the price I paid, dumping up to $5000 on parts alone in one year should almost equal bluebook, so i dont feel too bad...

So far, gas is not that great....i'm averaging right around 21-22 per day...

Overall, i LOVE the car, the ride is refined and quiet, yet sporty and "grippy". OEM stereo is better than most aftermarket decks i've owned (besides eclipse).

I plan on SUBTLEY modding it, just wheels and maybe a front lip, that's it.

Any suggestions on some affordable staggered looking wheel options?
