I guess it's time for an Introduction.....

Hello all!

I've been around for a little bit so I thought I would introduce myself. I purchased my 2011 AW E90 a couple weeks ago. The car is pretty basic nothing special (only Premium and Value Package) but I really love driving it as compared to my 2009 MBZ C300 (fully loaded, which I bought about 2 years ago) it is a much more fun car to drive. I look forward to many fun years with this car. There are definitely a lot of regrets like not getting one with:

iDrive (which I plan to retrofit in the future)
HID (I also plan to retrofit in the future)

Other than those 2 things, I have really enjoyed driving the car. Here are pictures of both of the cars:

Nice ride bud! I cannot live without Xenon headlights 👻. Btw I drove a c250 diesel in Europe and I loved because of how smooth it is.

Yes, I debating whether to do OEM HID retrofit or iDrive retrofit first.

The Benz is definitely smoother but the Bimmer is definitely a lot more fun to drive. I love them both.

Of course you can! Did some research on it, tons of info to be found on here.

You are correct in saying that it will cost nearly a quarter of the price of the car, but at the same time, the value of the car is lifted once it's equiped with these items. Nonetheless, I am not really concerned about the value of the car.

People who mod their car sometime put more money on their car than it is worth. Not really the point of modding a car.
