 First Impressions Of My E90 + Pics



Well guys, I finally got my E90 and I will give my 2 cents on it. Sorry about the poor resolution pics. I took them with my PDA and if you guys want more I will take some better quality ones.

2006 E90 325i
Titanium Silver
Black Leatherette
Walnut Wood
Steptronic
Sport Package
Xenons
BMW Assist
35% tint


Likes
*More overall room
*More powerful and smoother motor
*Sport Package not as harsh as E46 one
*Leatherette is way softer then E46 leatherette
*Bluetooth works a lot better than E46 system
*The extra glances I get while driving my car
*Stock Stereo sounds really good. I'm glad I didn't get L7.
*The xenon adaptive headlights at night on a curvy road
*The sport package steering wheel and seats
*The cool LED lamps under the door handle

Dislikes
*The harsh vibrations from the steering wheel. I assume its from the stiff runflat tires.
*The small rattle from my center console
*When I shift the car manually, I get a rubbery squeak

This is my 4th BMW and this one is by far the best. I accept the minor flaws since this is a relatively early production first year car. Oh, one more thing, I'm not sure if I had attached the pics correctly.

Congrats! (ermm, no pics attached yet...)

Regarding the steering wheel vibrations, have you checked your tire pressures?
The factory/dealer usually has them up to maximum to prevent flat spots on the tires during transport and storage and the prep guys often forget to lower them before delivery.

As promised, here are the pics...I hope. Also, I'll check out my tire pressure.

Pull out your ashtray and reset it. it took car of my rattle

I have the same bugs as you and no radio now. I was told the run flat tires are stiffer and the ride suffers. My next set of tire will not be run flats. and I will carry a donut tire in the trunk

This kind of defeats the purpose of buying a car with run-flats in the first place...

Ya pay yer money ya takes yer chances, eh? Got no choice but to take the run-flats when you buy a new E90. If you don't like the ride you exercise your right to change the tires.

And carry a donut in the trunk. (Make sure your jack fits the lifter spots!!)
