I have quite a few pictures to share.

First, a VW Golf Harlequin(sp?) that a friend of my dads bought for dirt cheap and it only had 45000 on it.


322 Nailhead V8 out of my dads 56 Buick Special. Needs some cleaning done.


The shop I work at from time to time. Getting ready to put a new trailer under it.


Cadillac that belong to another friend of my dads.


Storm damage from a while back. Barely missed crushing the front of one of our cars and 3 out of 4 that were parked at the neighbors.




Engine I delivered to Ohio with my dad over summer.


Replica Hacker Craft in Ohio. 30 feet long and powered by twin 454s!


View from the house I stay at on Muskoka Lake, Ontario that I helped do a lot of work on.


Ferrari I spotted at the Chestnut Park real estate in Port Carling.


Huge Kermath straight six or eight cylinder boat engine. Over head valves, twin up draft single barrel carbs, i think was about 6 liters or 6.5.


1960s Lyman utility getting some work done at Antique Boat Center America in Cincinnati.


1924 Dolphin Hacker that my dad did a full restoration on and we owned for a while before we sold it


Dads 87 Alfa Romeo waiting to get a new clutch.


Lastly, the sign on the door of an airplane hanger in Wetumpka, Alabama that had 3 perfectly restored Yak 52 Soviet trainer planes.

I will have to get a couple of pics next time I see it at a boat show. It is a huge truck though. Its a diesel, either 7.3 or 6.0 and he only uses it to carry a 18 foot Chris Craft Capri or his toy hauler.

I can also have tons of repair costs from little things. No thank you. As a daily I prefer reliability over power. Gotta get that 300hp for Washington DC rush hour traffic, hells yeah.

Bummer. Better luck next time.

What? My point was I intentionally bought the 330i over a 335i, it was my choice. The 335i ad 135i have been having some major reliability issues that I wanted no part of. Nothing to do with luck.

Lol. I was being sarcastic. I suppose I should have put items in italics or something. Or one of those little " ;) " in haha. Nonetheless, it's a great car you've picked up. At least over here, a manual E90 330i is somewhat rare.

Also, fwiw, it really depends what year you get a 335i or a 135i.

Enjoying the show at SEMA last month:



Engine for a 1967 911S one of our techs rebuilt right down to every bolt and washer. Took a month.

Yeah bmw has warrantied the major issues on the 135/335 like the hpfp until 100k, I just didn't want to deal with the headache of potentially having it happen at inconvenient times. The newer ones they have fixed (new as in like 2011) and I am not quite baller enough to pull those payments off comfortably. Plus this 330 was local for a decent deal.

In the end the 335 is definitely a more powerful/more bad ass car, I was just trying to say that I didnt feel the need for my daily driver to spend the extra cash and have the potential for more head aches. No worries.
