New to 1addicts? Introduce yourselves...

[ChrisM135i]

Nice, another topic to say hello! :smile:
I am just searching through the forum from the button to the top..

I already posted a "Hello" thread in the General forum, but i wont miss the opportunity to introduce myself a little bit more in this topic. For informations regarding my car, check the topic in the General section (http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18147)

I am Chris, 23 years old, since last wednesday owner of a half-year old BMW 135i. I registred myself already some time ago, as i realized, that i wont buy a new E90 / E91 (formerly planned). I earn my living with buying IT and Software products for a big, digital printer manufactor from the netherlands. I live in a small village in the outer side of munich (about 15 miles away from the city center of munich). Before the 135i i was driving also a BMW. It was a 318ti E46 with 143 hp.. so the 135i is definatly a big step forward. :biggrin:

Hello everyone,
I'm Jon, last week I ordered my 09 135. ETA november 28.
I will be replacing the grill with the high gloss black grill and replacing the foot pedals with the aluminum. I have no intentions of any mechanical mods, 300 hp is fine by me.

Hey Chris & Jon! Welcome to 1Addicts! :biggrin:

You both sound like you a coupla nice 135's in the works.

Jon.. you think 300hp is enough, until you get used to it. I said the same thing as you are saying now. :wink:

Hi guys,

Following up on Larry's "Welcome", as an Army-brat, during the 50's I grew up in Germany, probably explains the whole Duetschephilia thing, yeah, 300HP/TQ?, you'll be more than satisfied, it's like having a muscle-car strapped to your butt. Pssst, just between you and me, OK, Larry's a torque-whore, don't listen to him.:wink:

Hi from Barcelona, Spain.

Not having a 135, but really love it. I'm 22 and nowadays driving a mk4 golf.

I'll try to learn much more about this great car over here .

I've got one question: which is the most poppular or well known pre-owned selling cars web site in USA?

I saw cars.com, but I don't really know if that's the most poppular.

Cheers!

[Addict...Nah Im A Junkie!]

welcome Snowball. I would refrain from any mention of "beating" any cars, since kill stories are strictly prohibited here (the mod's will delete them). But you should still post about anything and everything else you want to about your new baby. Hope you're lovin the car!!! Sounds like you are though. Drive safe.

Hey Guys,

My name is Matt or my friends like to call me Tweek and I'm new to the forums and thought I would introduce myself. I currently driving a 2004 Dodge SRT-4 and some mods and a 1979 Trans Am which is my show driven car. I'm looking into purchasing a 135i Coupe in the near future hopefully next year to come. I'll post pics of the rides later on today.

[atr_hugo]

Tweek - welcome aboard! Where/what shows do you take the Trans-Am to?

I take it to local cruise nights once in awhile. I did take it to Trans Am Nationals this year in Dayton, OH.

[atr_hugo]

Way back when I had a buddy that had a Grand Am - sans dead chicken on the hood ; -) - believe it was a 400 CID - more torque than a GE AC6000. Got that car seriously sideways on more than one occasion. :biggrin:

[Tweeked SRT4]

Here's the pics of my SRT-4 that I recently took maybe a couple of weeks ago.

[AlBel1214]

Hey everyone I have been posting for a little while now and never saw this thread... my name is Al and I live in philly... the 135 is my first "performance car" and I love every minute of it...

Its great going from a corolla in HS, to a scion TC right after graduating college, to finally having a car that can "hang with the big boys"... ha ha..

Thanks. I get a lot of people that think less of that car until they see it run down the track and change their thoughts on it. haha. I've put a lot of time and money in that car this past year but it's time to move on to something else. I haven't had it dynoed yet or have had it at the track since the big turbo install. The turbo itself should hit around 400+hp on a race gas tune @ 25-26psi and about 370-390hp on pump gas @ 20-22psi. I was running low 13's on the stock turbo with just about every bolt-on.
