Wink My New Toy

Decided to trade off the BMW 335i I got earlier this year and pick up this beautiful 2010 VR 2SS. Stock, M6, 12k, Sunroof, and black leather interior. It's the car I spent all year looking and finally found it here in Florida. I'll get more pics up once the rainy days stop around here.

Sorry for the late reply, been working 15 hr days lately....Gotta love that Military schedule sometimes.

Honestly buying the Camaro and getting rid of the 335 was strictly a personal choice. The 335i drove like a dream and one of the best handling cars I had the chance to drive. The twin turbos have a lot of potential with a small amount mods (i.e. JB4+, intercooler, down pipe, meth kit, etc). With those small mods guys are laying down 420-440 at the wheels in a nice luxury ride. Going to the Camaro had its plus's as well. Higher HP potential for 1/2 the cost of working on the Bimmer and satisfied my urge for owning the 2010+ style. If anything it's the small little things I miss with the Bimmer. Led lights on after unlocking the door, the passenger side mirror turning down when backing up, 4 doors, and better truck opening. After I'm done with paying for the Camaro I'll be back into Bimmer, either a 335i, 535i, M3, or M5. Owning the 335i definitely turned me into a fan of BMW performance. Hope that helps!
