You might try Co's. They'll pick up your car and bring you a loaner if needed. I live in Greenwood Village and use Co's.

Ask for Shelton Sanders as your tech and mention that Dave Stephens suggested them. Explain the issue and give them a shot.

Had bad service experiences with Schomp as well. I know it is a drive for you but Gebhardt has been fantastic for me for many years. Ask for Mike Unrein to service your car, best tech they have.

good stuff thanks guys

At any rate, it looks like there are enough E9x owners now to do a SIG drive. I'm planning on doing the RMC club drive on May 24th and I'm also organizing a separate drive on June 7th up into the mountains with a number of people that I work with (bunch of gearheads and car guys...). Let me know if anyone is interested in the June drive and I'll send you info on that.

Otherwise there have been the monthly "Coffee and Cars" and "Cars and Coffee" meets down south. There is also a first saturday morning of each month meet in Lafayette (at the coffee shop at 95th and Arapahoe, right by the YMCA) that's up here in the north.

Hey Gladius, I'm jealous... I love the SG color, and was pissed it wasn't available on the '09s. I will be doing the Springs Drive on 5/24. Look forward to meeting you guys!

Maybe we should all sound off... see who's available for it. Would be nice to have a row of the Ms!

Not me. I work in the Tech Center, but I haven't had a chance to even break the sticks out yet for the season...

They actually pick up your car? Wow. Not sure how I feel about that, though. One hand, yeah, convenient, other had, driving my car, responsible?
I will be going to Schomp for my 1200 mile, next week at Schomp. Will keep you guys posted on how that goes. Last couple years, I've used them, no issue, but didn't blow me away. Before that, I used Murray. They were fine too (just the Sales side that was lacking).

Also, REAL NICE TO SEE SOME ACTIVITY ON THE REGIONAL SITE!!!!

I'm in the Quadrant building on DTC Parkway. We'll have to do DeliTech or Pancake House breakfast some day.

Co's will actually pick up your car with a closed trailer.

Dave -

Co's: Really... interesting.

Yeah, we'll have to do that. I used to work in the building on Union just west of Ulster, behind Darcy's. Now, on the west side of I-25, of off Quebec.

mgifford6 · 05-31-2009, 11:21 PM

I live in Cheyenne so it is kind of the Denver area especially since no one up here has an M3.

Check out the Rocky Mountain Chapter of BMWCCA. It includes you guys, whether you can see a mountain or not. There's an autocross school and autocross later this month. I'll be at the AX on Sunday.

I'm eager to see the pix from Sat/Sunday' DE at Pueblo - I think ColoCane's wife got some good shots. Anyone else? (I was driving both days, and only got a few blurry photos with my phone from turn 10).

My wife did get some shots. Some far away, before she realized there was a zoom. Most are around Turn 10. I've been traveling a lot and will be out next 2 weeks. Hang tight, I'll get them posted!

nguyenbk · 06-10-2009, 07:31 PM

Ive had my space gray coupe for about a month now. got the mod bug and now i cant stop. I need some help though. im in a wheelchair and use hand controls. do any of you know how to switch the resistance of the paddle shifters so that the + is on the left side, ive been searching everywhere but cant find an answer.

signes · 06-12-2009, 11:51 AM

I would imagine that would be possible. Have you talked to your dealer or a tuning shop like Bimmerhaus? You might also want to ping one of the tuners active on this board like EAS. They seem to do pretty complex things and should know if it would be possible.

artifice · 12-20-2009, 11:39 AM

Spotted a SG e92 m3 up in the mountains at the casinos in blackhawk accross the street from the ameristar.

E92_SID · 11-03-2010, 01:38 PM

Hey guys! There is going to be another M3 in Denver to be on the look out for soon! My car is waiting on a boat right now!

Welcome aboard, glad to have another in the club. Good choice with MR and bamboo. Let us know when you get it (and pass 1200 miles...)

Congrats. You'll have a blast. Say hello to Donnie Isley for me, the driver not the singer. That whole driving instructor pool is excellent.

I just drove mine back. We stopped to see friends in St. Louis and then drove on in. That'll get you past the break in period and you'll be ready to rock immediately.

Would be nice if it were possible to even log into the site. Somehow I registered weeks ago, but since then it's been a big FAIL and I wonder how I ever managed to sign up. They did manage to take my money.

Klambo · 11-18-2010, 11:28 AM

Hey guys!

I just found this thread. I'm in Fort Collins. So not too far from Denver.

Sorry, just saw this...Yes, I am getting the the 1/2 Red & 1/2 Black just like what is on the Frozen Gray and positioned as "individual".

Should be nice, I love the red, but full seemed like it may be too much over the long run.
