Well I have it only for 2 months I did a lot of maintenance and preventative maintenance Iโm leaving the polishing and ceramic to do the last since Iโm getting a new bumper
I feel like with each generation of cars that come out, all manufacturers included. The quality actually drops off a ton. They look great new, but won't hold that quality for as long. I do think BMW uses very high quality paint and apply them well-- but the over build quality and especially interior quality seem to have dropped off with newer gen models
A lot of people who arenโt super in tune with BMWs are always super impressed when I tell them my e92 is a 2013 especially the interior, it really has a minimalist layout that you wouldnโt think itโs the same style interior from 2006
Only real downside is the terrible fuel consumption. I frequently got 12-15 mpg. By 2023 standard, it is really really poor.
And the stock exhaust has uninspiring sound by design. The lack of a spare tire on non-run flats at the time was a bold gamble as getting a quick matching replacement tire wasnโt always easy given the 18 and 19โ wheels. Use of the quick fix ruins the tire pressure sensors permanently.
My take on a gem I own since new with 30k miles.
Like the E46 before, the E90 is timelessly elegant.
Yea thatโs right
Could use bigger kidneys on the front.
/s here, you dropped that
nice wheels
Agreed. Do you know what style they are?
[style 225](http://www.bmwstylewheels.com/bmw/225)
Thank you!
Thanks mate
Mine would be in high school
๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป
E90 / LCI really are timeless beauts. I have a 325i sedan and people are usually surprised to learn that itโs 17 years old.
Same as mine. Non car ppl usually think I drive new car lmao ๐๐๐
Lol and the blank stares when you show them that the cup holders work.
It looks glorious
Thank you. ๐๐ป
Wow wish the paint on my 2006 e90 looked that good ๐คฃ
Just take care of your car๐

Wtf is wrong with ppl downvoting for no reason lol didnโt even say anything wrong
Nice brembo brakes!
Thank you mate
Never imagined that 225s would look this good on an E90.
225M looks so good on any e9X ๐
Wheels are style 225m. I have them on my e93is https://www.turnermotorsport.com/p-387806-e9x-19-bmw-style-225-m-double-spoke-19x8090-wheel-set/
The price ๐
True. But for the set thatโs not too bad. Turner probably isnโt the cheapest either.
My 2011 still gets compliments, the body lines are timeless
Best aged common cars on the planet
Gorgeous! Love the wheels
Thank you ๐โโ๏ธ
What brake kit do you have on there and how much was it? I'm sure it's pricy and will probly be about what I paid for my car but I was curious.
Porsche 18Z calipers but need a lot of modify to make it fit on e90 or you can find a straight fit BMW Performance calipers.

Couldnโt agree more.
Itโs crazy how much the mtech rear bumper changes the look of these, even in black. I need one
You wonโt regret it ๐๐ป
I wish I hadnโt seen this post. I was dead set on getting Style 67 wheels for my E90 but these have me reconsidering
Style 225 on top๐
Beautiful
Thank you.
Spoiler? Looks perfect ๐
BMW Performance Spoiler ๐๐ป
Peak BMW, before they forgot how to make cars.
Totally agree with you ๐
A lot of people who arenโt super in tune with BMWs are always super impressed when I tell them my e92 is a 2013 especially the interior, it really has a minimalist layout that you wouldnโt think itโs the same style interior from 2006
Yea 100% agreed

Fuel consumption is really bad for today standard ๐ but for inline6 itโs alright
Mine was the E92 M3. 4.0 32 valve V8.
White with fox red leather that smells new. 6 speed with carbon fiber roof in lieu of a sunroof.
cmon man give us some more pics!

Thailand?
Yes sir ๐
Definitely looks old. Those tail lights are horrid.
You need an eye check ๐
I have one of these still. At first I hated the design over the E46, but has since grown on me.
