New to the forum-- asuhh

Hey lads and lassies,

I'm new too the forum. Currently in the process of picking up an MRM M3. 40,000 km (25k miles). She's in great condition and I can't wait to call it mine.

A little about me. I've been working on and building cars since I was young, didn't really get into the depths of it till I graduated high school. Before now, I've been playing with Subaru's and built a couple of them. I love them, don't get me wrong but I want to try something different. I was aiming for RWD and a V8; really loved the M3 and I figured for starters it's a car made for the driver and there's nothing more raw than something N/A so for me it was a no brainer.

Anyways, I'll talk less and just show you what she looks like.

I had heard Melbourne women were hot. There's the proof.

Thank you! I'm quite interested considering I was working on cars around 15-20 years of age, this will be something completely different. All I've ever worked on with BMW's in the past was the Vanos system in an X5.

Congrats and welcome. Looks just like mine

Based on the wheels, I'd say it's not a Competition, so the grills were swapped out; originals were chrome. Anything else been modified?

Looking under the car and I noticed it had H&R Springs. I have yet to find other modifications but on Friday I'll be picking it up from the dealer.

Yeah, I found it in Montreal. There's not many posted in Canada in general. Everything has higher mileage or costs too much. This one has a story to it. lol

We're twins except my car has ZCP so different wheels.

I had a 05 STI for a while before getting the E92 so know a bit about Subaru's as well.
