But I'd have to agree with Tarzan....what does "completely modded" mean? That would mean that it can't be modified any more, or there is nothing left to modify..? Somehow I don't believe that if the car is still remotely street legal.
Completely modded means I've done about as much as I want to without making it not a daily driver. I've done the whole bigger turbo, FMIC, catless, Etc Etc. I guess no car could be COMPLETELY MODDED. I mean hell, you could always mod the windshield wipers. That's not the point of this thread. I was wondering if anyone was in a situation similar to mine and what they did. That's all.

I'm the same age as you are, and I have a wingless WRX. I don't have people try to race me or anything like that. Just keep the car nice and tasteful and you shouldn't have problems feeling like some young flashy ricer. If you want to get a stock BMW, that's fine, but do it because you don't want to play with cars anymore, not because you feel obligated to get something that makes you look more mature.

you won't be bored with the bmw. Check out E90post i think thats the one..or maybe e90fanatics... Do your research before you take the plunge on a 335. what about an older 5 series? little bigger and plusher and if you get the right one you can still have quite a bit of fun.

I've done a bunch of research and the 335i sedan seems to fit my needs perfectly. Yeah, can't go with an older car (though the late 535i is pretty amazing). If I go BMW, it will be CPO. The only other cars I would seriously consider are G37's and IS 350's.

How about an Audi S4 because I think they look better than the 335 sedans, plus the interior is way nicer.


Just throwing it out there.

Yes, the S4 is a fine machine, but the 2010's are too deep for my wallets. I wouldn't want the previous ones.

If your family rides in STi only 1% of the time, why trade it in? Sounds to me you're tired of the car and using your family as an excuse.
