I got my 2013 E92 M3

Hi guys,

I finally sold my 2011 E92 335i x-drive and got a 2013 E92 M3. I loved the 335i but my heart was always set on the 2013 E92 M3.

I scouted the corners of the US to find the perfect specimen and I think I got it. The car is a late 2013 build with still seven months of warranty and service. It has 23,500 miles on it, Competition Package, full CF package inside and out and it came with factory installed BMW High Performance exhaust.

Inside has black Novilo Leather with manual transmission, alloy metal foot pedals, manual seats and the flat bottom BMW racing wheel with the blue leather marking at 12 o'clock. No winter package, who needs that stuff anyway...

I feel very fortunate to own such a car. It has always been my dream car since I saw one back in 2007. The looks of it, the curves of it, the power of it, just everything screams business....

My next project is to clean and polish that High Performance Exhaust, it looks a bit neglected. I'm pretty anal with my detailing, so the way it looks now it is killing me...

Wish me luck with it...Here is some pics.

I know, it has some holes behind it and then what do you do with the front plate?

Great move, awesome car! Strip the inner tip black paint on your MPE to make it pop...too stealthy otherwise. Enjoy your M3!

Well, I know NY is strict as hell right, so you gotta keep it or do a tow hook mount? Or just roll the dice...

I live in WA state where a front plate is required as well, but I still go w/o one on both my BMW's...I can't stand the look of the front plate.

Just rock the existing front plate. I've tried a few options, I think the OEM bracket looks best if displaying a front plate.

Nice setup. WOuld like to see some pics of the CF interior. With regards to the license plate, I'd get a new bumper and do the tow hook plate. I think that looks a bit better than the center molded plate holder. Just my humble .02c.

Don't need to get a new bumper just to get rid of those holes. Any half decent bodyshop can fill it in.

OP, nice car and congrats.

Denk, I have the same exhaust, what product did you use to strip the black paint? That looks great!
