Yeah, I miss the power, the handling...but the XB is growing on me. I'll get another evo in a few years.

Still kept my old ride:

1998 BMW M3
Dinan Mods with a few upgrades

SQ oriented system with Tru Technology amps, DLS Iridiums, JL Stealthboxes

New Car:
2008 Black Sand Pearl Xb
rims?
drop?
system?

For some reason, I knew exactly how I wanted to fix up my M3. But with this XB, I am so torn about everything- rims, drop, and system?! AHHHGGGG!!! However, I am having more fun in this car than I did with my bimmer... lol. I can't explain it why, but I love this car!

I drove a 05 SW tC for three years... I Test drove the all new xB and traded in! the new xB feels like my tc has been transplanted into the new xB. Same gearbox/motor as the tC with all the benefits of a xB! It's great! I don't miss my tC at all!

I'd just like to know who's garage that is. Looks like a shop with the exit signs and industrial trash can, if that's someone's private one though then wow.

I am working on a DVD system with a 15" screen with built in tuner, modular mounting, so I can put it either behind a seat or attach it to the steering wheel for my wife's extended shopping excursions.

One of these days I'll update my profile, haha. It's just a supercharger with custom piping for the fmic, nothing special. Hopefully I'll get a turbo soon.
