Another New M3 Owner
OK...so it took me forever and a day to find the perfect car...what can I say?
Here she is...and major props to Ranger 22 for "babysitting" her for me...he called her a "Garage Queen" but he lied...she is really a "Garage Empress" I've never seen a 4 year old car that still had perfect seats, perfect body and that new car smell...not sure if he really drove it or had it towed around to get those 27k miles but the car is incredibly clean. The funniest thing? I bought her sight unseen...didn't drive it...but when the PPI guy wants to buy it if you don't...maybe you've got a keeper...  Shipped her enclosed from Texas to Oregon...called every shipper in the book and then some...found out LOTS of info about shipping and will post that in a separate posting to share my info and save someone else all that work... She's 2011 E90 Space Gray with comp, full leather, cold weather, premium, tech, DCT, moonroof, rear power shades, PDC, & enhanced sound... The only mods were clear bra, Pinnacle F1 ceramic window tint, painted black gills/grills & LED bulbs. I'm still learning about the car...would appreciate any "old timers" that remember what it was like when your M3 was new to PM me...I could learn a lot in a short time...thanks for the read!  |

Congrats! I bought mine sight unseen from out of state as well and had a similar experience. The car was showroom new. Only had 7k miles on it and smelled new. Nothing like that new car feeling. Enjoy it!
