Hey, guys
I've been a lurker for a long time, but never really got an account, until recently. I've been waiting until i postwhored enough to be able to post pics. and now i can!!!!:woowoo:so heres my official introduction:

My parents bought the e34 in 1995 from central bmw in sherman oaks. It was brand new, just brought in, and still had all the paper stuff they put on it from when it came off the truck. My dad just walked up to it, took it for a spin, and loved it from that point on. Now after almost 12 years later, its mine. I just got my license and the car was sitting around, so i inherited it. It's a Kashmeir (Gold) 1995 525i, its a great car! but its auto:( oh well....

im still happy though, its a great car and i plan to make it better as money rolls in
Mods:
K&N Air Filter ...haha

took these on a rainy day after my dad gave me the car:

Not sure how you can post that with a straight face...:rofl

As I've told you on .info, just needs a few tweaks. DON'T DO CLEARS.

Figure out the rest, it'll come to you.

welcome...

Welcome!

Nice ride!!

Congrats and welcome. Your car looks good!

Welcome. Your 5 is a great car for a first ride.

Welcome! You'll have fun modding it and participating on this site. Marty

Welcome to the site. Euro trim seems to be pretty inexpensive and makes the car look a lot cleaner.

hey cybereclipse, welcome man.

as for your mods, i HAVE to recommend a TMS or Jim Conforti chip. search around. it was my first mod, and i would never get rid of it. easy install, and you can really feel the power gains.

+1, heard it's a big difference on a 525 auto.

There are mods that give a lot of bang-for-the-buck and some that don't.

I would do
M5 plate filler
BavAuto exhaust tips
Early E36 M3 steering wheel
Bimmian.com snap-in gauge rings

Then
Springs/Shock
Nice OE E39 sport wheels

After that it's all details.
Rear headrests
Euro trim
Euro Ellips
Some sort of front lip (optional for sure)
Newer BMW headunit or matching aftermarket.

+ plus 1

maybe not a Jim conforti, ive heard nothing good about those chips. ive heard the Dinan chip is the best bang for your buck.

welcome.. let the moding begin. :wave

Congrats on the inheritance and welcome to the E34 community :wave
