What happened was EVERY shell and Sinclair in Boise had 93 about 2 years ago, some stations have just failed to update their tags.

On a lighter note im getting back into an e92 m3 on Monday! Took a little detour:
e92 m3> GTR> 2014 s4> back to a MR e92!

If anyone has any parts they want to sell let me know. Exhaust, black kidneys, lip, etc let me know!

Would love to hear your opinion on the GTR. I was thinking about going that route before ultimately going with the M. Thanks!

Honestly I loved it, nicest looking and faster car ive ever owned. The seats and stereo were top notch and nicer than the m3. But.. it was so rough in first gear, the seats were very tight, there is literally no back seat room(I don't know why its even there). main reason I sold it was the attention it got though. I could not go anywhere without someone wanting to take pics, talk to me, sit in it. 3 times in one month I came out to someone sitting on the damn hood taking pics!!!! I could not handle the attention. So I sold it.

But the maintenance cost was 100000x better than bmw. An oil change was $40, which included a free hand wash at the dealer... Oil change for an m3 in Idaho is $180!!!

Melbourne Red, That was my second color choice had I not found my IB first.

Yep, It was on the corner of Fairview and Maple Grove. I think the place is called Alic motors, but I'm not entirely sure on the name. It was a MR e92 with factory gun metal 18's. I think it was priced in the mid 30's.

Surprised I don't see your car around more often (other than its down for maintenance) since I live out that way as well.
