In rosedale, i know of only one other M3 which is an 07.

07? I met a person a couple of months ago with an AW ZCP E90 on sunrise... I was in the SSII E90. Was that you?

Military members... in this area....Western Germany

e92:
4 or 5 white m3s
2 blue ones
2 black ones

3

BMW mechanic(almost got his master mechanics!)

1 limited edition e36 m3.

jmflukeiii · 03-13-2011, 02:53 PM

I've only seen two JB E9x M3s in Tampa, mine being the E92, and someone else having a E90. I've seen an AW and then a custom Phoenix yellow, but these were both at my shop, one is the owners, another's is a friend of his. Also have seen one IB at my gym. I know another AW exists nearby as well, but that's it that I've seen: 6 total including mine, 4 coupes, 1 vert, 1 sedan. I'm sure I'm wrong and there are more... I hear they are handing out M3s in Miami though

I don't know where in oc and la you guys are all seeing tons of m3s. I drive between both cities 7 days a week and I see one m3 every 2-3 weeks. I see 335s daily.

Same here. I see MAYBE 2 a week.

Someone locally to me just bought a 2011 IB Sedan. So much for thinking IB sedan would be rare around here.

tailgate1234 · 03-13-2011, 04:11 PM

Redwood City, California. They are all over the place, a dime a dozen. Same with Teslas and other exotic cars. Guy down the street has an RS3 (with trailer), Porsche Turbo, Range Rover, S2000 and some other SUV thing.

i guess it pays to be in the military. any person that joins the militar deserves to be in an M3

mr_yogi · 03-13-2011, 05:31 PM

I have seen 2 E9Xs in the last year around my parts: 1 AW E90, 1 AW E93. I'm sure there are more, but I just don't see them. I'm pretty damn sure I'll be one of only(if not the only) a few LMB E9x. I would actually be willing to be that I'm the only one within a 25 mile radius of my house.

E46s I do see more often. Always a treat to see one!

Yea i dont mind. Just more reason for me to do more mods.

jonasaurus · 03-13-2011, 05:42 PM

I haven't seen too many E9X M3s around and if any then they've been typically Coupes...

Seen 1 so far but spring is just around the corner

NYCMCBM3 · 03-13-2011, 09:03 PM

I only seen 3 in 50 mile radius

donsgolf2012 · 03-13-2011, 10:41 PM

San Diego, California, WAY TO MANY. In Indian Wells, 1/4 people own a bentley

mkiv808 · 03-13-2011, 10:43 PM

I see lots of E46 M3's around me, but E9x are a bit more rare. It's bizarre, given all the money in the area and the fact that I see exotics pretty regularly, even the occasional Carrera GT or Enzo. But not a whole lot of e9x M3's.

That said, nothing compares to car-obsessed southern California.

So have I. Also had the same experience with my 911 a while back in Beverly Hills.

fishskis · 03-13-2011, 11:12 PM

In my 24-unit building there will be three e93 M3s when mine arrives. (Currently there are two new JBs). At least I didn't get JB.

half man half amazin · 03-14-2011, 12:26 AM

Here in Vegas I have seen 6 e92's, and 2 e90's in, 5 months , 4 of which had California plates. Always a treat to see them in motion. Makes me appreciate mine everytime I see one Rollin.
