M3 E92 Manual Owner Perth

I recently picked up a MY2008 M3 E92 Coupe Manual with 67K kms on the clock and no mods. I have big plans for her starting with more aggressive 19" Advan forged rims and KW Variant 3 coilovers the first mods planned. Plates have been ordered too.

Congrats! Great to see another Perthite on the forums! And I am guessing that was your XT Foz cruising around West Perth.. that thing looked superb!

Welcome Dave and congratulations on your purchase. Is it Jet Black or Jerez Black?

The forester xt sh was mine and a four year money pit that ran on e85 in cosworth built forged motor. It made 350 hp at all fours but was a brick.

Congrats on the new m3. I'm currently in the process of moving to an m3 from an e85 guzzling Supra, similar to yours. I'm looking forward to finally making the change and meeting up with some of the members here in WA, there seems to be a few of us!

This car is pure luxury meets pure performance. I test drove one in 2008 but could not afford it then. It's been worth the wait.

Nice one Dave!! I have also just joined this forum as I picked up a 2009 E90 M3 2 months ago - my previous car was a 2008 Liberty GT Tuned by Sti.

before I made the move into BMW's (2 x 335i's).. I had three Liberty GT's, and before that a Forester GT. American Dave, I have a distinct feeling I know exactly who you are as we drank together at a few of the Liberty ASN meet up's (and if I recall, we spanked it through the underpass from City West to West Perth when I first picked up my Silver 335i)

Meet up required ASAP!

yes you know me well...the Subaru boys still meet up at the Hyde Park Hotel on Fridays for lunch. Lots of parking available too. We should plan something similar.
