    Abu Dhabi Motors (BMW)

    So I had a quiet afternoon, I though I would go to abu dhabi motors (BMW dealers in Abi dhabi) to see what's the deal with this new modification law and how will this effect their modified vehicles.

    I have a Hamann back box and I was trying to see if the car was sold with the modified exhaust. Unfortunatly they couldnt b of any help as I had to visit the mussafah branch. However since I was there I had a good look at some of the new models, I was very impressed with the new F30 335i and took some details from the salesman.

    He was very helpful. He informed me if that the current generation had a newly designed engine, I asked him what was the engine designation or code ? I asked like N54 or N55? He said no its F30. I took a deep breath and asked no I mean the engine on the 335i, he said we call this the F30 all of it including the engine......

    Now considering this guy was Middle Eastern and I spoke in English and Arabic I left somewhat disappointed. But the new 335i is an amazing car.

    Tommorow to mussafah! To sort out the exhaust saga! Before the 10 June deadline when common sense goes out the window !

    I already removed my cans! :(

    Feel less threatened by the cops but I miss the base and that sound of high rev shifts! :(

      just make sure you dont high rev uselessly... since if they dont find a modified muffler they might as well just accuse you of wrecless driving.


      Abboudi.. you should've asked the salesman if it had a M20B25TT lol

        I feel you bro, i didnt appreciate my exhaust before as much i do now, knowing they have to go....

        Bruno I dont think the guy was born when the M20 came out... heheh

        Its the confiscation threat that is unbearable and i cant take a chance with that....

          I was invited by AGMC to drive the new F30 335i and 328i in Auto Drome. I loved the intertor. But still will wait for the new coupe.

          By the way I have changed my catback/mufflers to BMW performnce. My plan is to trick the cops by asking them to bend down and read on my mufflers it says BMW Performnce ,then smile and "say see its stock it says BMW."
          Do you guys think that will work?

              Someone Called me from AGMC in Jan and said we are unveiling the new 3 series at Auto Drome. I said no thank you but then he said You can drive the new F30 335i and 328i on the track and have FREE lunch Then I went for it.

              Was great fun I drove the 335i,328i,z435is,650i.
              I guess it was marketing for the new F30.

                  Z4 35is is FAST I felt like its as fast as a M3 covertable in a stragiht line.

                  I bought 3 cars from them.
                  Still hate them
