From E46 to E53
Hey everyone, glad to finally have a legit reason to be a member of this forum. I traded my E46 in this past weekend on an '03 X5 3.0 (Sport Package) with 104k mi. - Sapphire Black on Black. The classic line "I'm not going to mod it, I'm just going to drive it" was heard, but that didn't last long. I already ordered 25mm spacers for the rears. :smh:

On to the pics...









Here's what my E46 used to look like...

















Also, if you haven't heard about my blog yet.

Congrats, but it would have been a hard trade for your e46, imo.

Your e46 looks like it was a ZHP, yes?
I still have my black/black ZHP. I couldn't give it up. Congrats on the X5 though, you're going to love it! Out of our three BMW's (X5, moded 135, moded e46) the X5 is our favorite!

Looks like a 330i ZSP with a ZHP front bumper to me.

Haha yeah, most people would probably say the same. For a daily though, the X5 is much more enjoyable.

Welcome DTMdan! I recognize your username/car from E46Fanatics.

I'm sure it was hard to let go of the E46 but you will love your X.


P.S. I still miss my 330ci
