Finally getting my first Bimmer!

JLed79 · 03-21-2012, 08:43 AM

Picking up an 08 4.8i with sport package, adaptive drive and active steering on the 20" 214 wheels next week. Black sapphire metallic with beige interior. Always loved BMW, but haven't owned one yet. I can't wait!

Congrats! Post pics when you get her... Your gunna love it! Welcome to the Bimmer family

JLed79 · 03-21-2012, 11:12 AM

Thanks Forster! I've really wanted an M5 but it's just not practical for me. Your X5M is Sick! I'm hoping I can find some kind of mods for the 4.8 but not having much luck in searching.

I'm also new here. How do you post pics. And in the classified sections, what does bump mean?

Bump is to refresh the post.

JLed79 · 03-21-2012, 07:33 PM

I gotcha thanks. And can you just copy and paste pics to post them?

Once you go BMW you will never go back. Best of luck with the new vehicle.

JLed79 · 03-21-2012, 08:48 PM

Thanks a bunch! I'm already looking for an X3 for the wife!

In advance mode (when you see those "[" brackets "]"), scroll down and hit manage attachments to upload your photos.

JLed79 · 03-22-2012, 08:48 AM

Hmmm. I don't know about advance mode. I'm only using the iPhone app is that possibly from the app?

I don't have an iPhone but the Bimmerpost app I use on my Android phone doesn't have the option to upload pics. All of the pics I have uploaded on this forum has been done from my laptop at the crib.... or from my computer at work.... (don't tell the boss)

JLed79 · 03-22-2012, 09:35 AM

Hahaha. No worries bro, your secret is safe with me. And okay. I tried copy and pasting but that didn't work either. Looks like I'll have to fire up the beast lol.

Thanks man! I'm sure you'll find some mods... Check out bimmian.com; bavarianautosport; IND; Dinan; Turnermotorsports.... Just to name a few lol... I have the iPhone as well and to upload pics you need a desktop. There are more options for you to search around too when accessing a computer

Thanks bro. I'll check em out!
