Hi, Back to the BMW Famliy!

WeißerPfeil · 07-28-2008, 05:07 PM

Hi everybody. I am posting after long long time. I was driving a 2007 911-C2S for a year or so. It was so beautiful, but obviously my world (where I am working, Silver Spring , Md) is not ready for a daily drive 911!? I had for the first time driver’s window broken and 2 sets of valve caps stolen…

It was really not fun any more working and being worry if someone is messing with my C2S in the public parking bldg.:/ So long story short, I sold it couple of months back and lost a lot, but I treated myself again with a 08-335i coupe. I am still breaking it in, but love every moment of it. Not that I am not worry about my 335ci, but my worry is less. I, like most of (if not all of ) you love cars, especially BMWs, but I have learnt that they are not worth being so worry about (even a beautiful 911-C2S).
Since I got my new BMW again, I was thinking of painting my wood interior. I did have the aluminum trim on my previous 330i (E46), I thought I go a little PTurbo style

So I did it. Actually after searching and asking around, a professional paint shop did it for me. It came out very nicely (especially in person). Exactly the way I wanted and imagined it.
Again I just wanted to say Hi and let you guys know that I am back. Although I am not nearly as active member as most of you guys are, but I am visiting this site everyday for several times! In my way I am trying to show my respect for all of you. I have learnt a lot from each of you. Peace!

Welcome back to the family. We missed you

Don't worry about the would be thieves. Just park a Pitbull inside the car before you leave

White trim interior looks dashing and unique, for sure

ALPINE6SPD · 07-28-2008, 05:17 PM

welcome back.

WeißerPfeil · 07-28-2008, 05:17 PM

Thanks Tondtar. I would rather have a (einen) Deutscher Schäferhund (Germanshepherd)

A question for you; are you Persian? Because "Tondtar" in Persian means "Faster"! -And yes, I wanted to have a unique interior!

WeißerPfeil · 07-28-2008, 05:18 PM

Thanks Sir, Alpine6SPD!

simp0man · 07-28-2008, 05:31 PM

Is it standard white or does it have that pearl shine to it? Is it glossy? I would like to know. Welcome back!

Well, I am busted AGAIN!!!

Yes, sir. My background is Persian, Indeed. Although, I have lived 2/3 of my life in US as another culturally confused naturalized expat (as a US citizen). No worries, though ... Got over it quite a while ago - Believe me

Nice job on the translation, bud

Welcome back.

I live in Potomac, Maryland. If your in Germantown, then you're about 10 minutes away from me.

Ramos · 07-28-2008, 06:28 PM

Welcome back man.. I would have to see that interior in person,
I don't think I like it in the pictures.. Too loud, but who knows it might look way better in real life

anonymouse20910 · 07-28-2008, 08:49 PM

Cool...another local enthusiast.

I used to do the Germantown to downtown Silver Spring commute in the late 90's. Even had my own assigned garage parking in my building. But then I was parking a measly civic haha. Now I got the Clarksburg to Bethesda (montgomery mall area) commute and love it.

I was all set to take delivery of a white coupe with 19", style 230 wheels, but the car was supposedly damaged in port. I suspect the dealer lied and couldn't negotiate with the dealer that really had it coming in. Anyways, I ended up with a sedan and love it. So much easier to get a baby seat in it.

Congrats and see you around.

The trim color looks tight. Nice job.

WeißerPfeil · 07-29-2008, 10:37 AM

Hi SimOman,
This is exactly the color of exterior. The guy at paint shop even backed the trims! It is like being done in factory. He did a superb job.

Hi Tondtar,
I am Persian as well. After doing my military service and war I went to Austria and stayed for 8 years (did my Mechanical engineering). Since 1999 we are living in the State. I travel every year to Europe and Iran. I am in the US-Citizenship process!! Good to know you. By the way, I love your car and especially the wheels!

Hi HotIce,
I love living in Potomac. We were living in Rockville for couple of years. But still, you are right, we are living really close. I like your banner

Hi Ramos,
Thanks for the welcome. You see, in “aggressive” design, there is always a thin line. Either you are on the Happy side or you are not so Happy. You are right you need to see it in person. Still I can’t grantee that you may like it. That is why it “may” make my interior unique

I have more pictures if you like to see more.

Hi Anonymouse20910,
I thought the commute from Clarksburg to Bethesda would be bad as well!? –Ja, the dealers sometimes can’t tell you the whole truth. I like the sedan, too. But after the C2S I wanted to stay with a 2 doors. My wife has a Highlander and that is why I can have the luxury to have another coupe

.

Hi Bimmer Loyalist,
Thanks for your comment.
