I just got rid of my 2000 328ci 5 sp. I blew my clutch and flywheel 
needed new brakes and what not. I live in Oregon so it's pretty bad winters around here usually, and I needed something to drive in the snow so I got a 2002 325xi Steptronic. It's black which is the best for BMW's I was curious about the all wheel drive / 4 wheel drive. My dad traded my car for me in Reno, and I haven't even seen my car yet... I pick it up Friday. It has the premium package, all grey leather, spoke wheels, sunroof, the whole package. I was wondering what kind of perfomance am I going to see out of this car? I'm 18 and raced my 328 around like a bat out of hell and I learned my lesson pretty quick. I'm just curious to see what kind of differences I'm going to see with this ride compared to my other one. I had a stereo system installed and my windows tinted. The BMW dealership wasn't too happy with the windows being tinted. Anywho, I wanted to know about perfomance issues, ( mods? ) and if I should tint the windows and if anyone has pictures of different tints for BLACK cars please. Anyone have info on how these xi's handle? I'll have pics next week, thanks in advance for anyone. And please, spare me the you're 18 and own a BMW... I've heard it all before,
thanks.![[werd]](/images/smilies/icon_smile_werd.gif "Werd [werd]")
