BMW 330ci Clubsport

[Ruskie]

Few pictures of my new BMW 330ci Clubsport after a detail. Washed with two bucket method, Clay barred, Polished and then Waxed.

I absolutely love the car, drives fantastic, smooth and quiet but when you want to press on it feels superb. The noise is fantastic!! I have had a hot hatch for 4 years so feels so nice to be back in a RWD car again.

Any thoughts on where to place newly purchased Pistonhead stickers? I was thinking either side near front wheels?

Left side of boot.

Nice car, I've always liked these. Still not sure about those rear spoilers though....

[Podie]

Nice.

One of these in the station car park, with little carbon fibre extensions at the front - looks quite good.

Not sure about the alloys TBH... bit too fussy for the clean lines of the car IMO.

Love the Clubsports, just that little bit more special (and lighter)

Can you notice the 6 cylinder thrum much more than a normal Bimmer Ruskie?

One of the reasons I bought this was it looks a bit more special and not like a run of the mill 3 series. Not been in another 330 so difficult to compare the two. When the revs get above 5000rpm the engine sounds amazing!

The wheels could do with a refurb but for split rims I reckon I am looking at about £400 min for the set.

I thought these were only painted in estoril. Learn something new every day.

Silver, Estoril and Velvet Blue (Purple).

Always had a soft spot for a clubsport

Nice car

I quite like the spoiler, sets it apart from every other 330 out there

[Aydogflipper]

looks really smart that fella

[Ruskie]

Went for the back window. Not a great photo but looks very very subtle. Matched one up on the inside as well. Need another two for other window which I will order along with a tax disc holder.

Great car, love E46 330 Club Sports, wish I could afford one!

[Paul RN]

Looks great, but all that effort and then you take crappy pictures!

[Remagel2507]

Very nice car you got there , what is changed from a normal 330ci to make it a Clubsport though?

Wheels look very nice, had a set on a E39 525d that we used to have.

Agree! Best I could do with the iPhone though.

Split rim alloys.
20kg of sound deadening removed.
Clubsport kicker plates.
Boot spoiler.
Limited colours.
Front corner splitters.

Car is lovely, I am ecstatic with it. Could do with alloys refurbing and some better pictures!

Cheers for the comments.

I will have a set for sale soon, i was going to stick them on my monaro but i changed my mind as i need even wider rubber. I will let you know once they are ready for sale

you have to live with one to love it. They look marmite in photos but compliment the car well in the flesh
