Picked up an M3 last night

Kev · 01-16-2009, 06:42 PM

Only had a pic from the iPhone though. Coming a 335xi, this feels like a major upgrade in terms of handling and raw power. The M-DCT is awesome. Just put on snow tires / wheels last night right after pick up, courtesy of Bavarian Performance Group, Winchester, MA

Front plate is coming off as soon as I get the inspection sticker tomorrow.

Thanks. I love the wheels too. The NEEZ EuroCross 7Model are super light and the concavity in the back is sick.

Totally agree. It's just one of those screw-in tow hook plate mount, so no biggie. Also, painted reflectors courtesy of IND will going on tomorrow. Planning to do AC Schnitzer springs Monday. They were delivered yesterday by BAX thanks to JLeviSW.

I have had two AW already, so the IB feels like a fresh breeze.

Thanks Peter. The NEEZ were ordered for my E92 335xi, but didn't get to use them. With the economy, it's tough to move them anyways, so I decided to run them with the Blizzak LM-25

Same here~ I want to the 3.62 conversion with an LSD upgrade after the 1200 service too. Looking at a custom setup with fully polished internals.

Bezhad, thanks a bunch. I met Brandon Thursday night at BPG and took care of the business.

It has the factory 19" 220M and my avatar was from my old E92 335xi with OEM Style 163M and an Alcon front BBK.

you don't need to wait for 1200 to do it ... I would say do it now, because you need to put another 1200 after that and change the diff oil again. If you'll do it now, you will save on one diff oil change, and can enjoy your car right after the first service ...

My BMW SA was totally cool with this mod !
