What to get???
OK, I am thinking of selling my STI and getting an 08 335i. I love my STI... It runs perfectly, it's very fast, completely modded, VERY fun to drive and has an awesome sound system. But, I purchased it when I was single. Now, I am married with a daughter. The car is friggin loud and I'm starting to think it's becoming impractical. My daughter rides in my wife's Pathfinder 99% of the time, but I'm thinking I need to shed this vehicle as I notice these young ricers (I'm 32) buzzing around, acting gay and I don't want to be associated with that- which many people do seeing a modded STI. But moreso, maybe it's a step of moving on to a new phase of my life. I'm thinking a 335i will satisfy my need for speed and provide more practicality.
However
I don't want to be stuck in this 335i and be thinking the whole time, gosh this ride is booooring, I'm tired of it, etc. etc... Has anyone else gone though something like this? What did you do? Were you happy with your decision? Thoughts please.

It's too loud? Why not switch to a quieter cat-back or even put the stock one back on? That makes a lot more sense than buying a new car.
Oh and please post some pics. I'm interested in a completely modded subby, maybe you have what I want?

Re: What to get???
Get rid of the wing, if you haven't already. That goes a long way in the ricer maturity department.
But I'd have to agree with Tarzan....what does "completely modded" mean? That would mean that it can't be modified any more, or there is nothing left to modify..? Somehow I don't believe that if the car is still remotely street legal.
