New member / happy M3 driver

Lus8aPilot · 02-22-2015, 09:21 PM

First post for me.

Just picked up my new M3 (traded in my '06 550i). What an awesome machine. Can't wait to get past the break-in period!

This one was in stock so I compromised a bit on some options (mostly the moonroof, but here in Seattle I can use all the sunlight I can get...)

Options: DCT, HK, Adaptive Suspension, 19"-black, E-USB and some cosmetics (extra carbon and black kidney grills)

This forum has been incredible for research. Didn't have to ask a ton of questions with the searches available. Definitely helped with the negotiation and figuring out how some of the tech works. Thanks!!

Lus8aPilot · 02-22-2015, 11:36 PM

250 miles in 2 days. Loving it! Such a different personality than the 550. Like I would dream of going from a business jet to an F-22 raptor.

Welcome and enjoy. Just got one from BMW Northwest in Tacoma about on 7 Feb. Went from a 650ix Gran Coupe to it and never looked back! Great car.
