*New to me* 2011 E90 M3 ZCP DCT LTW LeMans

Hello M3Post!

I wanted to stop in and say hello with my "new to me" 2011 E90 M3 ZCP DCT LTW (Sunroof Delete/Rear Folding Seat Delete/Speedcloth) LeMans Blue over Speedcloth.

The car has thus far exceeded all of my expectations and driver feedback. I came from an E36 M3/4/5 and told myself it would take the right E90 M3 for me to make the leap. Well, the rare LeMans came my way and here we are today...one week in!

Thanks M3Post!

Very rare indeed and great looking. Nicely done.

Do you miss the E36 at all?

Thank you the kind words on the purchase.

The rarity and resulting feel of the sunroof delete and stiffness made me jump on it. It was a tough call because my E36 had feedback that only a car that light and simple could provide. Brakes on the E36 are far superior relative to the size / weight. It looks and feels like the brake department on the E90 M3 is needing attention.

unlike many, an e36 sedan M3 5MT was my all time dream car
I'm totally happy with my E90 6MT, but sometime....if there's a low mileage one, i'd love to own a E36 328i or M3 sedan at some point...

Did u own the E36 at one point or just your all time dream car?
Good news is (if u can find one) a good E36 is a lot less cash than an E90.

Were your E36 brakes stock? Lighter weight makes a big difference for sure.

LOVING the LeMans E90 M3!!!

I'm #1 on the allocation list for a spec M2 build in San Diego, timing was not the best, I bought the LeMans because that build NEVER comes up for sale...can't afford both unfortunately...

No flip, just wanting it to go to an enthusiast that appreciates the build...not gonna find that on Craigslist (LOL)...so it is up on BMWCCA site for less than what I paid/into it for. Who knows how long it will take to find the right Buyer for this special and rare car...
