New Member Introduction

///M/// · 11-05-2012, 02:28 PM

Hi all, just wanted to introduce myself. I am new to this forum but not car forums in general. I was very active on m3forum.net for the past few years thanks to my E46 M3. Just picked up a 2009 SG/Black E90 M3 (DCT) from a fellow forum member. The car has just under 36k miles and is in pristine condition. My previous car was a 2003.5 CB/Black E46 M3 (Manual). Here are some pictures of my old and new car. Look forward to sharing some posts on this forum.

Cheers

Ricky.

Nice e46! Any reason why you went from coupe to sedan?

M3SQRD · 11-05-2012, 02:35 PM

Congrats on the e90 M3

Some may not agree but I find the rear end of the sedan better looking

And I just couldn't pass up the practicality of 4 doors. Was a total no-brainer for me

Sweet - congrats!

Is your dog more impressed by the new ride?

M3 Esq · 11-05-2012, 02:48 PM

Congrats!

E90M3-SG · 11-05-2012, 04:12 PM

Nice...welcome!

Yugo · 11-05-2012, 04:50 PM

Congrats! Both cars look great!

Love how that E46 sits. What suspension did you have? What type of wheels are those and their size?

nmehta211 · 11-05-2012, 04:52 PM

congrats--and get used to that last pic at the pump...these cars are thirsty!

MKE_M3 · 11-05-2012, 05:33 PM

Nice looking ride, welcome to the SG E90 club. Great combo, but I'm biased

I dig the wheels on your E46 (Rays?). It has a mean stance.

Welcome!

Nicname · 11-05-2012, 05:40 PM

I would've kept the e46

BLACK OPS · 11-06-2012, 05:09 AM

^^ Sweet. Why didn't you keep the e46?

Congrats!

HeyiTsGee! · 11-06-2012, 06:26 AM

Very jealous of your E90 though. I too am looking to upgrade to one but can't find a good deal anywhere near Oklahoma. Sad day...

Congratulations man!

Thanks. The E46 was going to be 10 years old. Besides, I was always worried about eh VANOS failing

Don't give up! I got mine from a dealer in Dallas - Alexander Auto Group in Arlington. I found the AutoTrader website (and app) a handy tool for keeping up on what was available.

Your E46 was beautiful love the TE37 SL's my favourite set of rims. Congrats on the E90 you'll love it I came from a E46 also.
