Had the samething happened to me. It was a E90 Blue who rolled down his window on the freeway to introduce himself. I barely could hear what he said.

On my way home, saw this M3 wanna be E36 3 series parked cross street of the Chinatown Uwajimaya.

Yeap, I do. Although there are couple of AW E92 in the Bravern parking garage. In fact, I just saw a brand new one today with paper plate still. I guess AW is a popular color.

Saw an AW E90 M3 with 19" OEM Wheels and Light Tint on Bel-Red Rd around 5:15PM towarding Bellvue Square.

Johnny Lin · 05-24-2010, 10:42 PM

Blue E92 M3 with Tow Hole Front Licence Plate on 520 Freeway heading East (Redmond) around 11:50AM. This is the first time that I have seen a Blue E92 M3 besides Kev's.

BLK E90 M3 on NE 10th ST turned right onto 112th Ave NE around 5:40PM.

Johnny Lin · 05-27-2010, 02:56 PM

Black E93 M3 on 520 Freeway got stuck with the traffic at the 405 South entrance yesterday at about 11:50AM. The car has not tint with 18" OEM Wheels.

Looking to make an offer on one but it's 1000 + miles away and have heard mixed reviews on this color.

If any one has one, or knows of one I could get an in person look at, I would appreciate it very much.

Based in Vancouver BC, but willing to make a drive to see one in the flesh.

Thx

I have one in Seattle. Surprised you would drive all the way from Vancouver BC, but maybe it's not such a bad idea. the color isn't for everyone. The picture below is about the most blue I've ever seen of the car because of the lighting. Sometimes I wish it weren't blue, but I think its much more interesting than plain silver. Just PM me if you want to take a look some time.

Kept displaying a broken link for some reason.

You keep 'spotting' me Jimmy

A few updates to the car since the first time. The interior is actually silverstone as well, but hard to tell because of the tints.

Saw lots nice E92 M3 today at the BMW CCA Dyno and BBQ Meet

Your car looks nice and clean

Mark B. · 06-08-2010, 10:45 PM

Dang

I thought I was the only space grey here in on the east side, seen a E92 space grey @ Benton City turning to go on 82

He had better wheels then mine. I think we were both shocked.

Do you have a four letter word for a vanity plate? I've seen it around town a few times and really love the color on the E92, but I got cheap and went with white (which I'm happier with).

Ha. Yeah, that's my route coming home from work every day.

I live about a block away.

My m3post stickers actually came from another forum member, MontrealRed. He has some extras that he's been selling. You might try sending him a PM. I got mine in about 3 o 4 days.
