living the dream 2 years on

spent alot on maintenance every month since jul till now. but i finally bought my brembos for the front. now for the rear, and i will be done!

Presenting the e90 335 m-sport light edition:

Sparkling graphite exterior on Dakota black interior. I love the black headliner. I didn't really like the beige interior in the mark x. And the sparkling graphite reminded me of my platinum grey jetta.

I love the sport seats, though I dun know if they are different from the usual e90s. Better than the jetta ones, though not exactly the semi buckets of the FD2R.

Light edition cos:
No iDrive. No GPS and reverse camera! I'm trying to get the Bluetooth to work again though.
No electric memory seats
No xenons
No sunroof
No roof and bootlid spoilers. Been there done that.

Euro 2016

taking a break from equities, I'm gonna cover euro 2016 in detail, with my losses from Germany beating Argentina twice in 2010 and 2014 still fresh in my memory. I forgot my wins, but remember my losses. Let's see if betting is more lucrative than investing.
