nice. at least u guys are trying to be real owners and not just "posers" like most of LA...

when i bought my 323i in '98 it was about $35.5k out-the-door. so, i put $20k cash down and financed $15.5k- ie about 56% down (i think my rate was 7.8% back in 1998.)

the 335i with options is probably pushing mid $50k's though- unless u bought a base model, which it doesn't sound like u did, since u custom ordered. what packages did u get and was your final out-the-door price?

a $15k loan at around 5% is just about $300/ month. and, by my estimates you guys are looking at almost a $40k loan, which translates into a huge monthly payment (almost a grand), since $15k would be only about 27% down payment. obviously everyone's financial situation is different. but, i hope u guys aren't biting off more than u can chew and know what you're getting yourselves into.

friend saw a ti gray in the Pasadena Community College parking lot

either Ings +1 kit or Veilside (he says most likely ings)
big wing, he said it looked like raised mazdaspeed
gunmetal work emotions (or something very close)

he was driving a black ap2 s2k w/70mm invidia test pipe + single exit exhaust

He was surprised because it turned out to be a girl...

I once wanted to give up my 8 up and was offered 12k by carmax, so I decided
to keep it, more power is what I wanted back then.
I love my 8 more now
