I've never really liked the E9x ///M in blue, but the pics of your car has changed my mind. It looks so much better than any other blue E92 I've seen. Great trip, great car. I'd love to do it myself someday. Many safe miles

Wonderful pictures, thank you.
Many of them are from perspectives not usually seen. The two looking up at the interior/timeline and the ceiling/roof of museum are excellent, with the latter being one of the few to get a sense of the art in the architecture. Well done. |

Awesome... Congrats your new coolest ride...!
I wish i could be available for the European delivery...! If I could, I would definitely go with the Monte Carlo...! But the reality is... Considering between 11" 335is used or 09" E92 M3... But I'm still appreciate this |

Thank you very much for the write-up and the great pics! And congrats on the car - Lemans is such a great color for the M3s

How did you like the 1M anyway? Feel different/better than your 135? Was nice meeting you! Thanks, It really is! Even after looking at the bill and dealing with this long wait for redelivery, I'd do it all over again. |

1M is definitely different! I was too lazy to post pictures, but it DEFINITELY does not drive like a 135. I'd say it's more in between an M3 and a 135. The suspension, transmission and clutch feels M3ish, but the acceleration feels like a turbo (obviously), but MORE! I didn't like how I had to shift like a maniac in order to get power out of the M3, so I went with an 1M = lazy ass daily driver. The day I went to the ring it was closed. I had to turn in @ frankfurt in the afternoon because it was @ 1200miles already. So I went back to the ring with a rental Mini Cooper. Damn that was fun, pushed the cooper (not even s) to the limit. I'd have to agree, stick shift NA is a HELL of a LOT more fun on the track, just not so in the streets... ![]() ![]() ![]()

That sucks about the Ring being closed, but at least you got to drive it with a rental. I wish I would've finished the break in before going, but honestly if I was pushing it all out I probably would've wrecked haha! That track was crazy, but sooooo much fun. I may have to go back over there between EDs just to drive a rental! ![]() |
