Finally!!!!!!!!!!!

My E90 JB M3 came in Friday! I absolutely love this car! It's beautiful! Now come the mods. Only issue is that it came with 10 miles on it (minor) and had 2 repair items on it at the districution center. A minor 0-1 inch scratch on door handle (repair = painted) and a slight color issue with the hood (repair = buff). I'm not sure if this is common but it still kinda gets me. Anyway I'll have pics soon. My mod list so far:

Matte Black Side Gilles
Matte Black Front Grill
Eibach Springs
HRE P40's
Painted Reflectors
Akrapovic Evolution Exhaust

Awesome! You must've been planning out everything for yourself like I am. I'm still waiting for my M3 to come in from delivery though. Less than a month of wait time left for me.

Mine came with 1200 miles. What are you guys complaining about?

Congrats. P40 wheels are very nice- that plus the rest of the mods is quite a lot of money to spend on a new car, but it should be awesome when you're done!

Enjoy!

Im complaining because I don't know how those miles were driven. Every mile could have been redlined for all I know.

Seriously, relax. 10 miles is not much at all (I had 23). Sure, there are plenty of folks here who shout about their ubber low mileage at delivery, and that is awesome. But 10 miles is only 0.8% of break-in miles. You are still "the decider" when it comes to your engine's fate.

Those miles came from driving the car to the distributions' repair facility at the port...then back to the staging area on the dock.

These repair facilities are usually located in a nearby converted warehouse somewhere on the docking port's property. (a few miles from the ship in some cases)

Mystery solved...
