Is BMW Kidding?!

TE26M3 · 02-05-2017, 07:42 AM

Just jumped into my new (to me) Silverstone e92 M3 and when driving it for the first time all I keep saying to myself is "Is BMW kidding me!?" This car is absolutely unbelievable; strong and agile. Can't wait to begin subtle aesthetic mods, hardwired Passport 9500ix, ACM exhaust, intake and ESS tune. Possibly Hardwire some of my emergency LEDs into the top of the window (anyone have a write up?)

Photos to come.

Looking forward to joining the m3post family!

It's sad. Won't ever be anything remotely like this car from BMW ever again.

Welcome aboard TE! Yep, that is what this car do to us...😊

Ps. Pics or it didn't happen.

The M3 has always been an awesome all around car no matter what generation minus the E36. What I really like about the E9X M3 is that it's a little bit bonkers in the way it will get sideways and more aggressive styling. But its not over the top. The F8X is a bit over the top to the point where it borders on the cheesy body kit look.

The E9X M3 is going to be the superlative M3 at least, maybe, until the next G series comes out...

Get a blendmount for the radar detector and the mirror tap to hardwire. Super easy. Looks awesome. I've got a SSII E92 also. Best color mate!!

That's right, you don't see no damned stinking carbon fiber roof! He's part of a Yuuuge growing segment of guys that got rid of that and installed the wonderful sunroof...to throw the top down, and enjoy the sun and fresh air as you hit the twisties...and stop imagining the minute Speed Racer advantages in a once in a blue moon track trip...
Plus we didn't even get into the DCT is better debate yet either!

OP, sweet ride...she'll never stop putting that chit eating grin on your face, especially if you drive her hard and put her to bed wet...

timothy2001 · 02-05-2017, 04:20 PM

Grin is right. Beautiful ride and welcome.
