Default Im back!!!!

After parting out my 2is and selling it..


I went and bought a truck thinking I needed more space for the FAM.. But pumping $80 a week on this gas guzzler v8 it was not fun..


And after going to Westminster meet today I said screw it, and I went to the dealer right after the meet.. This is what I picked up, and I'm so glad to be back.. 3is 350

Well I've only had car for 2 days now, I love the 3is interior and the red leather, the cluster and panels, I love that it has black interior roof panels (gets less dirty) .. Engine performance I'd say is the same..

I love the interior on 3IS. Please keep us updated if you ever run 1/4 miles. I'm also wondering about that. I heard 13.8-14.5.
