Thumbs up Picked up a new car - e92 M3

Hi everyone

So I turned in my 05 e46 M3 last weekend and was about to order a '09 335xi coupe when I fell in love with this on the showroom.





It was being prepped for delivery and they guys credit fell through for non-payment of child support.

I wasn't in the market for something like this at all but the price and scenario of events were just right.

2008 e92 M3 6MT
  • Alpine White, Extended Black Novillo Leather, Carbon Leather trim
  • Cold, Premium, and Technology Packages
  • 19" wheels
  • Moonroof (non-CF roof)
  • Premium Audio, HD radio, iPod adapter, 1yr Sirius
  • Park Distance Control

Swapping out the cars


15MPG...


First fill up

I was looking long and hard at a white on black sedan today at the dealer. 2.9% is really attractive. I would dump both the TL and the 335 and go to one car. Did ya get a good deal.

I know, I know. Ideally. But this just happened to be there & set up just the way I'd like except for that. 45lbs heavier than the cf... meh... I'll lose a few pounds.

I saw one of these on the freeway the other day, he caught up to me from behind, passed me up on the right and switched into my lane in front of me. He then proceeded to slam on the accelerator and he nearly ripped my damn front bumper apart!!! Shit pulled crazy fast...

Nice color choice.
Only thing I would've done different is kept the CF roof. I like sunroofs alot, but how many cars can say they have factory CF roofs??
