Calling out all MONACOBLAU METALLIC (A35) E90'S!

xfrieddoughx · 02-20-2019, 09:18 PM

Just purchased my first 2008 BMW 335XI,And I need some ideas on what to do next! Hard to find any other car with this color hoping to find any/everyone with one on here!! Here are some photos!(First Turbo'd car)

There are photos before i got to own it.Luckily I found the Previous Previous owner(Before the owner i purchased the care from) Found his Insurance card in the trunk and found him on facebook and learned practically everything on this car.He had a whole gallery of what he did to the car! And what was replaced.Now the owner that got the car..Bought it for his son.and well..As you know beat the hell out of it(mechanically)

1st photo from when it was listed for sale.
The rest are from before ownership.I did not have much time to take many photos due to it sitting in my garage for me to work on it.Any how.Lets see some Monacoblau BMW!

Very rare color man. I get a lot of compliments on it because it looks black. Hard to find body parts for it though

Here's my last 335, got totaled in a hail storm unfortunately, LOVED the color though!

Unfortunately only have a couple of pictures, as it got totaled a few days after I finished the m-sport conversion rip

You can check out my instagram (@nardoninety) to see the progression of the old car, as well as my new one, and hopefully that'll give you some ideas!!

Nice car! Where in San Diego are you located? I thought I was the only 6mt 335xi in the area! Heck, I haven't even seen any 335xi's around at all. It's good to know there's another one around.

Represent!!

Here's my 330i sitting on style 5's (although the garage lighting doesn't do the color justice).

Jurciks · 05-13-2020, 03:28 AM

Man, I wish I would've taken more pics with these on. I actually gave them to my brother for his e46

But if you want reassurance, no BMW will look bad with the style 5's!

This color is so hard to capture with a phone camera

StriderBMW · 06-04-2020, 06:49 PM

Just picked mine up less than 2 months ago. Love it!

Hi everyone, I’m from Russia. A while back, some of my distant relatives bought an E90 at an auction in the USA and brought it to Armenia. It sat there for a long time without being driven, and eventually my uncle offered to buy it and bring it to Russia. He knew I was a BMW fan and had always wanted this car.

As a result, my first car is a BMW E90 330i, and I’m really happy with it. Of course, it’s had some issues, but the emotions it gives are absolutely worth it. On my windshield, there’s still a sticker (probably an insurance sticker, though I’m not sure) from the state of Virginia.

If you’re interested, I can share more about my experience with it and send some more photos. Just recently my CCC failed, and I’m planning to buy another one since fixing mine doesn’t make much sense anymore.

Sorry if this is off-topic, but look in the mirror and see what kind of legend our fans have built in Russia.
