My first car, an E36 convertible.

[damonchoy]

Hi everyone,

First off: my car isn't all that low. But, I'm sure not everyone here has a car that's slammed to the ground.

This is my first car. I bought her with my own money last October when I was 15. A 1999 BMW 328iC convertible. Just a tad under 160,000km (100,000 miles) now.

I'm 16 now and I only have a part-time job, but I make do with what I have.

Some info about the car and what I've done to it so far:

- Fern Green metallic w/ green soft top
- Sand Beige interior
- BBS RC090/Style 5s with gold centers and polished lips
- Smoked lighting all around
- DJ Auto Euro Ellipsoids with FX-R 3.0 retrofit
- French high beams and fog lights
- KW Variant 1 coilovers
- Carbonio intake
- DTM tip exhaust (sounds fantastic)

Some pictures, taken with my Canon 60D. C&C on the photos are welcome.

Really old photos:

Maybe one day I'll give her some more low, but as it is now I can't get over the speed bumps to get to school.

Some newer (ish) pictures:

At least everyone will know it's you when you scrape over them... The last picture is great and I like the car as well. It's a good start, maybe a bit lower but it's your car, so your call. Welcome to S|W

Doing it right for a 16 year old. I wish I had the knowledge I do now, back then.

Keep it up, can't to see what comes out of it.

i think it's a nice stance for being your first car. like the color combo.

Thanks, guys.

Any suggestions (aside from more low ) for what I should do to the car?

Aside from maybe an M3 bumper, I can't think of too much more I'd like to do to the exterior. I would like to get S52 cams, an M50 manifold, a tune, an LSD and a couple other performance-related things, though.

I wasn't sure how well-received my car would be to the community here, but so far so good.

Edited some old photos, added to OP:







Going to bed so I can't edit any more tonight! I'll likely edit some more another day though. I'm in love with the last one.
