Hello
This past Friday (two days ago) I became the proud owner of a new to me 2008 Aspen White on red M3 coupe with the premium package. I absolutely love it. It came with the Akra Evolution exhaust and what looks like M spec matte black V pattern wheels already installed. I'm just getting started so I'll read up on this forum a lot more in the coming days. It's nice to have a new home... initial impressions of this forum are very positive! I'm all ears if anyone wants to give can't miss advice.

Welcome to the Forum Jagman! It's an awesome ride and frankly, you'll learn to love her more each day! I don't have any advice bar - find a nice road with lots of curves to drive her on!

Thanks for the warm welcome, everyone. I will be sure to read and reread the manual. The search button is indeed very useful! I have one question for which I didn't find an answer... is this forum associated with a forum app like Tapatalk or Autoguide?

It's got it's own Android (and I assume iPhone) app. Android Link here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...51bGwsMSwyLDNd

Got the app. It is much easier than the full website on my RAZR MAXX. I'll post some pics tonight.

Here are some pics...
    I think the matte black wheels, grill, tinted windows and carbon fiber roof contrast beautifully with the Alpine White body color. The Fox Red interior gives it the sporty feel. I love the red lights in the interior... especially the ones over the red leather on the door. That was a very nice unexpected surprise.
