XtremeR got a V-Dub

XtremeR 325 · #1 (**permalink**) 03-16-2007, 01:21 PM

What's good guys, haven’t posted here in a while. My dad has had a company car which he’s been driving so the Bimmer was mine for the most part, well that’s not the case anymore. He got a new job and takes the E46 with him.

I ended up with a MKIV 24v VR6 GLI which I can officially call my own now. The cars awesome but its no BMW. It came down to I needed something relatively new with low miles that could get me through college without any problems, bmw’s were just out of our price range. I'm still and always will be a BMW enthusiast by heart, but I’m still happy, the Dub scene is great also.

Well here it is, sorry for the stockness. Just ordered a europlate and stubby antenna, much more on the way.

yes its a GLI..... The 02-03's come with the 24v VR6 and the 04.5-05 has the 1.8t. The GLX has the old 12v VR6.

It is amazing how big an improvment the drop and front lip spoiler makes.

Have you looked at the Rieger front bumper?

I also like the Lumma rear skirt extension.

I'm trying to go for the OEM+ look. The only front bumper I'd consider would be the Votex.

Is she a AWD? That model was called "Bora" here in Australia and came as the 4cyl, 5cyl, and V6 4Motion with 6 speed manual.

Is yours a AWD or front? And how does she go?

Nope, it's FWD. The R32 is the only MKIV that's equipped with the 4 Motion haldex AWD system in the US.

looks sweet now, some eybrows would compliment the front, and maybe black out the vdub badge?
