sharpie's haz power. unfortunately, my 325 is still slow as sh!t.
Deep down, I think I have 3 L under the hood and a mislabeled trunk. I haz power.
I'll let you guys know in a years time on my findings and how much I have spent for maintenance...if I remember that far down to come back to this thread.....LOL.
At 73,130 miles, I finally got the wheels I purchased this summer mounted with the Pirelli Sottozerro and 2 new Hankook iPike winter ($284 shipped).
Cleaned the car yesterday and put on the winter wheels. Bring on the snow.

Are those x3 rims? They don't look bad at all!
Yes they are. Style 57s. I got them this summer for $80 a set!
Update on stuff done at 75000 miles (2 hr job):
Cleaned MAF.
Then ICV and throttle intake cleaned. I had been suffering from momentary lapses of idle control with rmp dips into the 580-600 for about 6 months. This would happen when coming to a full stop at a light in neutral.

Before: You can see where it was sticking and deffinitely not moving freely when I took it out.

Seems to be smooth. Time will tell.
Coming up on 2 year anniversary. Still enjoying the performance every single day!
I will post a recap of the second year soon (with totals).
