New M3 Owner in Illinois!

JW · 06-18-2009, 06:33 PM

Was planning on getting a 335i, but came across a new 2008 M3 that I couldn't resist!

Picked it up out-of-state last weekend. Can't wait to get to 1,200 miles!

Here's a picture of my new M3:

It looks like the your hood isn't closed all the way on the passenger's side.

Thanks, I've closed the hood!

The sticker on your windshield expires this month.

congrats!

JW · 06-18-2009, 09:59 PM

Thanks, it's an out of state sticker that I will remove after registering the car in Illinois.

I went to the dealer to buy a 135i vert and drove away in a MR M3 Coupe... funny how these things happen!

Congrats - you won't look back!

Congrats! Looks great.

You can't enjoy that car in Bloomington/Normal. All of the speed limits are like 35mph and below, right?

Yes, I will need to get out of Bloomington to fully take advantage of the car!
