Okay here is my 4th and final one I think I may have set a few records on this forum with getting into the third e92 over the period of only one year. You see it all started with a visit to Die Welt in 2009 Big Mistake then I so loved it my time at Die Welt and the BMW Museum just across the Street no to mention the breathtaking visit to the Factory just across the street from the Museum.
Anyway I happend to be there on May 5th and 6th in 2009 when the German market was introduced to the new Z4 models with the hardtop retractable roof. My love for the Bimmer was rekindeld in a bad way. I so wanted to get into one of them sexy Z4's and I did only to end up into a e92 very shortly thereafter. The M3 e92 marathon (involving 4 M3 cars (a e46 and three e92 models) started in the spring of 2011 and ended just 2 weeks ago to the day. Spring 2011 - sold my 2002 e46 M3 to a fellow Canadian in Ottawa. Spring 2011 - traded my Z4 and purchased a 2011 slightly used M3 Stock MT AW/FR no iDrive. Fall 2011 - Traded the 2011 for a 2012 new M3 Loaded MT LMB/Black April 5, 2012 - Traded the 2012 for a 2011 new M3 Loaded M-DCT AW/Black (photo below). I've done this since my wife and I wanted to downscale to one car and only keep the M3. Naturally as things go situation changed and we will be keeping our DD after all. And why not I have a nice car the wife deserves the same privilege . I think that must be some kind of record (there may be another fellow here I've read about that trades his car every few months ) There you have it the story of 4 fine cars all within a time frame of approximately one year. If I don't keep this car (below) for at least 2 years you all can ban me from this forum and trow rotten eggs at me or my car I will add a CF spoiler some CF interior trim and a light tint on the side and rear window like I had on my very first AW in the next few weeks.

Winter always gives me plenty of time to spend lots of $$$ on another round of mods! Here's how I'll be rolling this summer:

I like the performance splitters, and mirrors on SS II. Those wheels would give me curb rash nightmares. They're sweet. James

I almost went individual just to have a finished console (was thinking Azurite, which isn't a huge departure from Jerez). Do you mind PM'ing me some of the details Will? Cheers James

The CF console is full gloss, as opposed to the carbon leather trim. This console comes in the edition models and frozen edition models. Also the same as the GTS I believe.

The tint jobs on these most recent pics of the cars don't seem to be suffering from the lighter silvery colour on the dot matrix areas of the window edges. I have been avoiding tinting because of this issue and some really bad jobs I have seen. Where were these done?
