Thanks!
I still don’t have it. I actually pick it up tomorrow! I’ll take pics tomorrow and post them.
It’s easily the most track-friendly choice of the options…
I am not sure I’ll be able to stay in front of you…
M3 is a great care. You’ll want to punch someone when you realise you can’t get on it in first or second gear. Otherwise it’s fantastic.
George who you met with the red rs4 switched to an m3…then switched back to his old rs4 after getting sick of battling traction. It’s tough. Hope you have fun with it.
Dis you get an auto or manual? What colour?
I would have put my money on this CPO RS5 at afretes dealership
Holy fuck $80k for an RS5 with 30K km of abuse on it…I can’t see them being serious about actually selling it.
I’m a cheap bastard…there’s 30K km C63s selling for $40k. Or for real money, I’d be going to the states looking for a 997.1 GT3.
Bear what do/will you drive in the winter…?
^^ agreed that 80k seems high for that mileage. He won’t get that.
Congratulations, David!
looking forward to the pictures and actually seeing the car in person.
I’m sure I’ll need a major driver mod to catch up to you on the track.
I’ll try pushing it in 1-2 and see how it feels but it felt fine on the test drive. That’s part of why I didn’t like the C63 it would spin the tires very easily.
I ended up getting the DSG transmission with an exterior colour called ruby black. It’s A rich black with flakes of red. It looks really sharp with the rust brown interior.
The first year I’m going to see how the M does. If it’s terrible I’ll pickup something cheap for the winter.
post one up. I’ve never seen that. I would never buy it either. You don’t want the ‘cheap’ AMG/RS/M
Thanks man. Will hit the strip after I break her in.
How’s the new clutch doing?
Bear, Congrats bud! Sounds like a sweet car and I really love M3’s… I must admit sad to see you leave the S4 though…
Congratulations, 81bear. M3’s are great cars; which BMW forum will be your go to for reliable information?
Thanks PT!
Yeah it was tough but I get bored of things very easily. My wife prefers the S4 as she says the BMW is kinda douchee! Lol. She also thinks I’ll want my Audi back within a year. We’ll see…
you need some shades with white frames and at least 3 popped collars when you drive the M
Thanks bangoman!
I only know one, e90post. Though I’m trying to leave this car alone so I might avoid forum for a while.
Yeah I’m curious as to how other drivers will treat me in the M… I know in the Audi no one ever wanted to let me in and always tried to pass me.
I never found that about the Audi. Maybe because mine is silverish/under the radar, and looks stock. I get thumbs up or people randomly talking to me about every 4-5 days. Always male. RS4 is a great car if you’re a faggot looking to pick up 17 year old boys.
When i see M3s on the road, it’s always two categories
- douchebags - all the shit you hear, stereotypically…right on the money
- car guys who understand that it’s just an excellent car
You will look like category 2. That is unless you go the way of the douchebag!.
Clutch felt great! Only drove it for a week and had to go out of town for a business trip, still overseas now, but stage 2 is going in after the long weekend, so I will let you know how it feels after I get back.
