Bushman’s Daily M3

[Matthew_M3]

     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

I'm late to make this thread but here's my car. Before I bought it, I had a 2007 335i that was FBO on CA 91oct. Had a myriad of probelms and after the trans blew for the second time, I sold it and used the money to help buy this.
Bought it in 2018 from the 3rd owner with 24.5k miles and 100% stock. Currently sits at 52k miles since it's my daily driver. It's a non-comp, non-edc car, carbon roof and individual interior (black w/ fox red inserts). Not 100% sure about the other options as I never got the window sticker for the car.

I see your engine description on your car, jeez. that must be insane. Hows the car feel with the built motor?

Im mulling whether or not to go the supercharged route but its great for power. I just love the look of the carbon box and living in CA makes it hard to go the SC route for smog

Especially the SDC ones. They bend very very easily. A buddy of mine bend his brand new ones on a patch of uneven pavement driving home

I think he had same height tires. Really, they'll bend no matter what because of the concave. People track on the non-concave ones but recommend not to on the SDC ones.

I got them for going slow and looking sexy standing still.

If I have to travel, I just picked up some VMR 710's 19x10.

WANNNNNNNG

Picked up a Mode Carbon GTS Wing and had it installed by JMP Autowerkz

Some new goodies have been added now. I broke my GTS Lip and subsequently tore off part of that shitty felt undertray that BMW put on this car. Got myself a GT4 lip and a Turner Motorsport Aluminum Undertray to replace the old one.

How's the clearance with the aluminum turner tray? I don't know which one to get that has the most ground clearance

I've had no issues with it whatsoever at the ride height I'm at. I don't see it being an issue unless you drive slammed 24/7. It looks to hang almost the same as the factory, maybe a tad bit lower down

I love the SDC F14's, the concavity looks awesome to me. I look at it this way, if they bend i will simply replace them.

I love the look but Im looking to start tracking again and these wont cut it on track. Also, since these are custom powder coated, its a tad bit harder to justify the turnover of buying wheels + re-powdercoated new wheels to track them.

IMO, keep the F14's for the street and get a strong set of 18's for the track. Apex wheels have been proven to be up to the task.

I had TE's on my E46 M3. I do remember the day i received them, I was blown away by how light they were. Also the finish of the wheels was just incredible.
