"Non-Functional" E90M Coming...

rawdenim · 11-07-2013, 07:14 AM

Consider getting bags in the future so you can raise it an unleash that naturally aspirated V8 when you want to!

Antilag · 11-07-2013, 11:16 AM

If you don't mind me asking, what are the sizes and offsets?

huyner328 · 11-07-2013, 12:37 PM

Did you have to run spacers to make those E46 M wheels fit?

_Mbition · 11-07-2013, 02:43 PM

Can't wait to follow this project, was so hype when I saw your IG vid last Sunday when you got it. I'm shopping for one myself now. 08 e90 with close to no options.

Congrats on the new whip! Lookin hard already

ijnoj09 · 11-12-2013, 05:17 PM

love the drop Nav. looks sick.

welcome to the e90M club

m3less · 11-13-2013, 01:50 AM

Wow! That's scary low. Love the wheels!

luckyse7en · 11-13-2013, 03:16 AM

To the original OP. I was wondering what was the process like for you buying a car so far out of state? Did you go see the car in person prior to purchasing, did you get a inspection from someone local? How much did it cost to transport to you?

Sorry for all the questions. I want to look for a E92 M3 soon but my choices are pretty limited where I live. I want to search out of state. I just don't want to be screwed after putting in so much work to get the car to me.

TrevorM3 · 11-13-2013, 05:48 PM

i don't understand why you would buy an e90M3 and go this far with suspension mods.

The car can't even be utilized correctly.

Why not get a 328 and do this?

henrwy · 11-13-2013, 06:13 PM

welcome, you seem to have good taste in mods

Car does not rub at all. Still able to unleash the V8 with no issues. I'm considering cup kits for the fronts.

No spacers. The wheels were wide on the e46 M3.

I did not fly out. I did everything via phone call. They faxed the paper work down to a local dealer to me and faxed it back. Set up my own transport company to pick up the car and deliver it to me. It cost about $1k to ship from NJ to CA. Depends on which carrier you go with.

May i ask why it should be limited to a 328 only and not a m3? I utilize my car for drives on the weekends.... and it operates just fine. My E46 M3 was much lower and way more aggressive and i would drive it hard and pull on e9x M3s...

So you're able to drive that car like a regular stock set-up m3?

I guess we drive differently.

Yes, just like how everyone has different tastes. But i wouldn't tell anyone what kind of car to buy...

Jroc · 11-19-2013, 12:37 PM

I know you want to tuck those 18s Nav, but I cant wait to see some 19's on her.

SoCal BimMn' · 11-19-2013, 09:17 PM

Damn I say you're sitting perfect. Guess m3 owners especially will never completely understand the stance movement. I came from a 328i and would do this to my M after I get some nicer rollers. Seeing your ride makes me miss my old car and my brombachers. Good shit man either way it's always nice to see something different and outside the box

Law · 11-20-2013, 03:45 AM

Not functional but also not overboard.
A very clean street M3, like your E46.

I also made a similar "upgrade".
6 speed ftw, nice car
