hirokuni · 09-14-2005, 07:29 PM

My car finally arrived. After getting so much information from this site,it is my turn to contribute...

longtran · 09-14-2005, 07:47 PM

sweet......tan interior not my style, but damn looks good. how many time did you have to try to hit that driving picture shot?

hirokuni · 09-14-2005, 08:19 PM

arround 5 times..That driving picture shoot is pretty easy to take ,(since the car is only moving in less than 10km/h),you just set the shutter speed lower and pan your camera together with the car.

Beautiful. Congratulations!!!

RD Sport · 09-15-2005, 03:25 AM

Nice, How much is the bi-Xenon option?

davinet78 · 09-15-2005, 03:45 AM

very nice pics give us a description of the car and some experiences as with your first impression

kchika · 09-15-2005, 03:56 AM

Congrats! Another member from HK!

hirokuni · 09-15-2005, 08:46 AM

nice to meet all of you
1 the radio only display the song name in japanese,other menu is english, it have no problem for me,thank for your help.The cd changer also support mp3 function.
2 bi xenon costs HK$7000 arround us$900
3 I have never drive bmw before except my sister X5 which is sucks on cornering,the first impression of this 325 is very good on cornering,you should try turn hard on corner,it is really fun.very little body roll .(p.s. I am just a hoilday driver)
so far no problem yet. And in automatic ,you really need to kick down before she will go ,but in sport mode,she has no problem.
4.I also regret not getting the sport setup.
5 maybe someday we will have a e90 meeting in HK.

RD Sport · 09-15-2005, 10:01 PM

Bi-Xenon at HK$7000??? I thought It's HK$20000. Yes, I would love to have the sport suspension but then I have to wait for at least 3 months. I also would like to have rear sunshade.

Bi-Xenons are standard for HK-spec 330i's.

RD Sport · 09-16-2005, 11:37 PM

Hi KchiKa,

I know it's standard in Hong Kong because I am owning one but I thought the Bi-Xenon option for 325i and 320i is more than HK$7000

Cool..any pics of your ride?

hirokuni · 09-17-2005, 05:16 PM

hi rd sport,
bi-xenon + adaptive headlight+govt tax=7000+5000+govt tax= arround 20000
looking forward to see your E90 pics

MMVI · 09-18-2005, 10:11 AM

Hi..

Nice car. Best photos I have ever seen on the site.

RD Sport · 09-19-2005, 05:44 AM

I will post some pics this week, stay tune!

Mine is Arctic, Grey leather/ Aluminium with 18' aftermarket rims, I am running 225/40/18 front and 255/35/18 rear with Michelin PS2 NON-runflat

Have been driving it for around 3 months now and it's absolutely fantasic to drive.

By the way, do you guys install the latest software from BMW dealer yet? I think it will enable the automatic door lock when you have faster than 20km/h and will enable the key dependent feature.

RD Sport · 09-19-2005, 08:01 AM

HI Kchika,

Do you have pics of your ride?

RD Sport · 09-19-2005, 09:30 PM

As promised, please see pics of my ride, enjoy! Sorry I am not a professional photograher

330i, Arctic, Grey leather/ Aluminium with 18' RD2 rims 8J front, 9J rear, I am running 225/40/18 front and 255/35/18 rear with Michelin PS2 NON-runflat, 20mm spacers at the back axle
