135i in the North Carolina...

I just picked up a 2009 135i last Friday. The car came from Germany, but is a US spec car. It was a military purchase over seas. It was brought to the States in 2010. The service records are in German. The owners manual has a picture of a 135i with a Euro tag on the front. I haven't seen a owners manual from one bought in the US.
I hunted around until I found one with a 6 speed, M package, Navigation fully loaded. Out of the 25 cars I have owned, I can see I'm going to have the most fun with this one. I have had cars in the past with 630hp so the 300hp is welcomed. It's nice to pull out into traffic and be up to speed in a few seconds.

I'm up in the Winston Salem area. If anybody is up for a run up Highway 66 by Hanging Rock.

I don't think I have left a car alone that I have had. Put a supercharger on a Dodge Challenger SRT-8 6-speed - 630hp 537hp and 502 tq at the wheel.

http://www.challengerforumz.com/showthread.php?t=48620


Put a supercharger on aScion xB - 98hp at the wheel to 141hp. Put a supercharger pulley on a Crossfire SRT-6. Chipped a VW Beetle Turbo S. Put a stage II GM kit on a Pontiac Solstice GXP. And a few tasteful mods to a Mitsubishi Lanacer EVO X.

Took the 2004 xB to six shows and took home six first places. Along with Cassia Riley ( Penthouse ) taking a picture with my car. Traded the xB for my first MINI with and did a lot of work to it.
Pulley , header - exhaust, sway bars, Yokohama Proda II and an intake. Pulled 1.1.Gs on highway 66.



And one of my past cars. Installed an intake and a supercharger pulley.

Trunk

I just noticed I have the German OEM hazard triangle in the trunk. I have seen some people on the forum adding them.
