Hello, I recently purchased a mint 2014 Q60s and I've been lurking the forum here for a couple of months. I've done a couple of modest mods and I thought it was time to make a thread finally.

I'm using the mobile app so hopefully all of my pictures will post correctly.

Previous cars:
1994 Honda Civic DX (17yrs old)
2004 Honda Accord Coupe V6 6MT (20yrs old)

2011 BMW 335i coupe 6MT (27yrs old)

2008 BMW M3 coupe 6MT (29yrs old)

Not sure how the photos show up once posted. The first picture of my Q60s is day of purchase, next is with Eibach Pro-Kit lowering springs (installed at Z1 Motorsports), next is pearl black roof wrap and M2 axle-back exhaust (not shown), and just last week I got these 20x9 F, 20x10.5 R Niche wheels installed.

I'll start back modding in a few weeks. Next plans are R2C intakes, rear diffusor, HFCs, and tune. In that order. Any comments, feedback, or suggestions are welcome! Glad to be a part of the G/Q community.

 

Welcome to the forum.

 

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the new Q! Really nice set of current mods and future ones as well esp those wheels. Looking foward to your future progression on the car and forum as well!

 

Welcome to the site, nice group of past cars and look to be on track w/ your new coupe, looking good sir!

 

Not sure how to reply all, but thanks guys! This car is a huge step up from the M3 in terms of tech and reliability. My M3 was in the shop half the time I owned it, of course I miss the ~80hp advantage and the high revving V8 but there's something about having a car that you know will get you from A to B every single day. Believe it or not with the wheels this car turns just as many heads as my M3 did. Hopefully with intake, hfcs, and a tune I'll get some of that feeling back from a butt dyno perspective.

 

I believe it!

 

Congrats on the Q60! Sometime I'm amazed that BMW drivers willingly switch over from something like an M3. Just wondering, but how reliable was your old 335?

 

Wow!
Super impressive grand entrance.
That Q looks amazing, clean and tight.

Did you have to trim the rear fender liners and bolt flange?

 

The 335i was bulletproof while I had it. It was the newer N55 turbo which didn't have as many problems as the earlier N54. I got rid of it when I got out of the factory warranty because everyone warned against turbo failure which could run $3k+ for repair. I was told the M3 was more reliable but I guess I had bad luck with mine.

 

Thanks, no trimming at all. I have +42et in the rear if I'm not mistaken but so far I've had 3 people in the car and driven a good distance with no scrubbing at all and I can turn lock to lock in the front with no scrubbing also

 

Ah!
Yes, at +42 I had no issues either...at +12 I had to break out the dremmel
Thanks!

Nice run of vehicles BTW.
Well done!
