Just picked up an 08 E90 M3!!!

Very very very excited....

BMW did a buy-back on my 335i, and i was able to get a sweet deal on a demo 08 E90 M3 Sedan!

Here are the specs:

08 E90 M3
Jet Black/Fox Red Extended
Cold Weather Package
Premium Package
Tech Package
19"s
Shades
PDC
iPod
Premium Sound

any recommendations for a noob?

I will post pics after a full Adam's Polish Detail this weekend! Should be nice here in the Bay!

TIA!

That is your opinion...I HATE how the Blacklines look on dark colored E90s. I was planning on doing it, but finally got to see it in person...HATED it!!! I like how the stock RED Tailights stands out & makes the rear end look meaner!

If your build date is 4/08 or newer, definetly do the '09 I Drive Controller swap!



Lastely, do a spring drop! H&R or any other that are out there!

From there...the choice is yours...Congrats by the way!

Wow there are still 08's around? I guess in the US there are more cars. You can't find any here in Canada.
