M235i Owners Age Group

tinyTIM · 04-06-2016, 01:24 PM

Just bumping this old thread to get a better idea of the age group on here. Looking through the "What cars did you have before the 2er" thread made it seem like there were a lot of older members here. I will be 49 in a couple of months.

Xiaoxi · 04-06-2016, 01:57 PM

2 months shy of 25 when I ordered.

Looking to just go awe exhaust and tune. Maybe a downpipe?

This is my 21st car though.

Liquidpaper · 04-06-2016, 02:38 PM

28 when I picked the car up. Turning 30 on Saturday.

I am a track rat, so my mods have been track oriented (mostly): camber plates, wider stickier rubber (with wheels), downpipe, sway bars, rear end, brake pads, fluid, lines, rotors, P3 gauge

Only "cosmetic" mods are gloss black MP grills, stainless steel pedals, and a MPE.

31 and hopefully picking the car up before the end of the month. If I mod, next to all if them won't be aesthetic. Speakers, possibly amp, intake, downpipe, tune maybe, intercooler maybe. Though I really like the black lined grills. I might do that.

28 - just picked her up but have a lightweight front lip to put on and will add the m performance rear spoiler or perhaps exotic tuning rep...time will tell.

not too surprisingly you're getting a split of older/younger guys who don't need the room because the kids aren't here yet/have already moved out.

omega145 · 04-06-2016, 03:55 PM

34, few mods so far with more in the future. Mods are not really related to age. On a side note, not a fan of the word "rice" or "ricer". What does that even imply and who cares what someone else does to their own car?

44. I've been lucky to have a Bimmer the past 5 years. I drove a '15 428GC for a couple of months until my wife realized she needed one. We went looking at the dealer (only one in Alaska BTW). They didn't have exactly what she wanted in our price range. But, they had my now M235 on the lot that I really liked and she liked our 428 a lot. So, it was a win/win for both of us!!!

Was 27 back when I bought it in 2014, 29 now.

christine1 · 04-06-2016, 08:44 PM

31 here, moving on from a seriously under powered 2013 128i.

Almost 40, but I feel like I'm still a kid. So I guess I can continue to mod my M235ix right?

mcompact · 04-06-2016, 10:25 PM

59; owned BMWs continuously since 1983. I am an HPDE instructor so my 2er will get an LSD sooner than later...
