new daily hauler
my wife an I had our first baby in september. we had a lexus IS250 awd, and i sold it becasue it was just a little too tight, and the seats didnt fold in the back. it was also a little underpowered for my liking. now that baby is growing we were on a hunt for a new daily driver. i found a great deal on a 2010 bmw 328i xdrive with sport package/premium package/executive package/winter package and logic 7. 50k on it and in amazing shape.
so i promised myself i wouldnt mod this car this time.....and broke that promise. i already ordered kw coilovers, 19" bbs ch's, splitter, gloss black kidney grilles and a bunch of small other goodies. i cant help myself, haha
and a picture of the old daily driver

Other than the power, how was the 250? Always liked the looks of the IS.. would consider a 350 for my next DD... that or S4 
congrats on the new wheels!

i found it very small inside, especially for somebody like me (being 6'3")
And sitting at the back, was horrible

R8? Do you know him personally? Because the garage pic has a Z4 in it.

It's his father's place. Lucas is building his house at the current moment from ground up.
Btw, how's the house coming along? Must be pretty hard to get some time to do when the baby is now here Congrats btw, both on the newborn and the nice 3er.
