  Today I lashed out a made yet another vehicle purchase, this time it was for my wife though.

  Mrs Aussie is now the proud owner of a E46 330xi black.

  She no longer has to punt my latest sub $1K POS around, she has earned it.

  Remember this woman has allowed me 18 cars prior to getting her own.

  I love my wife.

  Congrats,

  Coupe or sedan? 6 speed? I ask because I am in the market. Been looking for an E36 M3 sedan but am willing to consider a coupe. I want to drive a E46 330 coupe with sport package and see how I like it.

  I worry about reincarnation. What if I’m not hung as well next time around? The Buddha said Not to grasp- life is transitory. Damn it some things a man gets used to grasping.

  Nice. It's always a good idea to keep the Mrs. happy, 'lest she make you rather... less-than-happy. I wouldn't mind an AWD 3 Series for a weather car around here, how's it handle vs. the RWD?

  Honestly, it is my...err her, first BMW, it is nippy, stable and fun, looks awesome and she is happy.

  I also liked the AWD, in NW Ohio we have seen some snow lately.

  Nice Bimmer. Great colour for it.

  Do you guys not have to run front plates over there?

  friend of mine here has a-x'ed and track dayed her auto 330xi for several yr with pretty good success (has retired it to daily service only now... civic track day car taking the bimmers place at the track and a-x)

  she didn't do anything to it except tires, was actually pretty quick

  Luke, made the purchase in Indiana, they do not require front plates, but we live in Ohio where they do, so when the title arrives in the mail, I will get Ohio plates/tags and the front plate will go on, unfortunately.

  Promised the wife, no racing and client transport, this one is hers

  In fact our 16 year old will probably use it more than anyone, he took off for hours with his mates last night, I don't even have a key.
