The life of my 135i, because pics are cool.
Since I enjoy photography, and I don't want to keep starting/whoring out a new thread to show off a stock car, I'll periodically update this if I think I have some cool shots. Cool? Cool!

Thanks man... They're just stock 2012 135i non-M-Sport wheels.. didn't have much of a choice I don't think.. hated them in pics when ordering the car, but like them much better in person

So true, they look terrible on the site but in person, like you said, they're a completely different wheel. I've had plenty of compliments on them and I'm just like, shrug, eh yea they're nice haha.
I was VERY close to pulling the trigger on the Coral Red. I bailed and went black / white trim which I love, but it is very nice as well in the Coral and you're going to love it! Good luck with it! |

Agreed. They look terrible on the ordering site, in person, they're completely different. I'm happy with them and get a lot of compliments about them. I'm just like, shrug they're alright.. thanks. haha.
I was VERY close to pulling the trigger on Coral Red, but bailed last minute for the black w/ white trim. You're going to love it. Good luck!! |

Pro-Tip - take the Hassel plates off and never go to them again. They are not worth it. Nice car though
Did you take those out by Shelter Island? |

That's out in Lloyd Harbor, North Shore by Huntington / Cold Spring Harbor. It's a pretty awesome stretch of road, great scenery. Water on both sides, 1 lane each way, with space to pull off. Zoomed out if you ever want to take a ride up there: |

Everybody that was good in the Hassel Service department left last december. They all moved to Habberstad Huntington and Bay Shore - So I go to Habberstad now. Quick story, My car had 77K miles on it at the start of the month. My wastegates were rattling horribly. So I took it to Hassel (like I used to do) They had the car for 3 days and didnt even read it for codes (I knew there were codes stored in the ECU) until the day I pick up the car. The conversation switched from "Get in right away" to we can do nothing, your wastegates are broken but they arent broken enough. Come back to us when they break fully (whatever that meant). Knowing that they were just trying to make me leave and avoid a repair on a car 5K miles before the warranty expired. So I got on the phone to track down the awesome people that used to work at Hassel, I found them at Habberstad and walked out with brand new turbos and an intake manifold cleaning a week later. Hassels service department is currently awful, they treat you like dog turds and they dont care about you. I would highly recommend avoiding them in the future. Back on topic though! and Back to the pictures! |

Her first snow!
A week after hurricane Sandy, the nor'easter "Athena" gives her best attempt at causing chaos... Bringing my 1's first snow!
Yes, I'm aware at how boring these three pics are |

I think I may have to cave and purchase a winter set though, I was hardly able to get her going on any sort of incline, and this wasn't even bad. |
