My STi and the my new 330i pics~~

Its been a really hard tough decision for me to make...to trade in my 05 Subaru STi for the E90 330i....... I did it! And couldn't be happier..although I am sure that I will miss my STi's performance. But for everyday driving, 330i fits me better. Oh yea, I've been missing the German car's quliaty and luxury since I sold my Audi A4 1.8T and got the STi, and now I am back to the German side again!

Here are some pics of my 330i and my STi:







I will miss the STi for sure...

In terms of interior size, how much of a difference is there between the two.

The STI is a sick performing car, and no offense to WRX owners, but you obviously stepped up in class by trading for the E90. You knew what you wanted (more quality/luxury) and you got it. Looks like you modded your WRX a bit... any plans for E90?

The 330i has more interior room comparing to STi's..especially in the rear. Yup, it is sure an upgrade..but in different category. As for the plan of my 330.... hehe... I think I will get front skirt like AC or Breyton, and a trunk deck lip spoiler, 19"rims, ECU chip, and maybe exhuast upgrade.


I miss my Audi A4 so much...

Sounds like a great plan.... my imagination coupled with your A4 shots indicate that your E90 will be a blast ..... and to top it all, it's Black... great stuff!!!

i think they're twins, i can't really tell the difference between yours and mine, maybe close-ups will tell the difference.

cngrats man. i know im a bit biased, but looking at the subaru and e90 side to side, theres no comparison in my book. the e90 is just soo much nicer.!!

But i gotta give you credit, that A4 looks unbelievable, i'm amazed you gave that one up, thats a really nce setup car, can't wait to see what you do with the e90, seems like we have similar taste in black cars with a bit of lip

Well..the truth is A4 was too slow..and STi was too fast but lacked refinement...330i, the blend of both!!!
