[mint86_325]

i'm not a "sir" i'm a girl. i probably should have specified that... but i didn't think anyone would order me to modify a car unless they thought i was a guy

 

[manuel]

just dont put a stuffed animal in your car and youll be ok.

 

[DRWWE]

Welcome.

Keep 'er mint! But you should definitely modify a little just to stand out from the crowd and add your own personalization to it. Be careful, if that's your first BMW you may never go back! Happy Motoring! and congrats.

 

[Kirby]

Welcome! Do you have any particular thoughts about the general type of mods you might want - engine performance, handling, body styling, stero system, etc.?

Welcome to the board, I'm from Tucson.

 

[///M SPEED]

Congrats on the purchase and welcome to the board!

 

[Big Daddy]

Like everyone said, welcome! A quick mod is tires and rims. Makes the car look 100% better and if you get some good performance tires she will handle better as well. Congrats on the purchase.

 

[Bunker]

Welcome aboard the board, keep the lines of the car and just slightly enhance its natural features.

Hey I live southwest of you, WAY south, near that hole in the ground that we call Ajo, Arizona (on the way to Rocky Point) just bought a 93 740iL, smooth car and even with a chunk of miles, it does great on road.

Hi, I too am a SW newbie in Chandler AZ. I've had my 99 M coupe for 2 weeks and am in a similar situation as far as mods go. I am also interested in learning about track day type events in the Phoenix area too. Cheers! TC

Welcome. I'm sure you will find the boards a good place to find advice and just hang out. Good luck with the new car!
