Hi Everyone,
Long time viewer (mostly) of Bimmerpost. The M3Post site is fantastic and is a valuable resource. Looked for lots of info and browse daily. I live in Auckland, New Zealand. Had lots of different cars (incl other BMWs) prior but this is my first M car. After test driving an M car prior, I just knew I had to get an M car as my next...and so here we are. Cars prior... Mazda MX5 (NB) VW Golf GTi and R32 (MKIV) Mazda RX8 Honda S2000 BMW 130i BMW Z4 sDrive 35i BMW 335i E91 Porsche Boxster S (986) Modifications - Stock except... - Tinted windows - Matt black grill Some pics... Correct colour, correct letters, wrong order :-)

nice car!
btw, has anyone noticed that US spec 219M wheels has less concavity than non-us spec? or it's the way the wheels are shined? Look at it from the angled view. |

na spec 219m (left) - eu spec 260m (right) 219m spokes start thin/sharp from the hub n gradually get wide/flat 2wards the rim edge. 219s hav a thicker lip too. 260m spokes r basically thin in size from hub 2 rim edge. also, both hubs r slightly different in design as well. in turn, 219m look beefy n strong where as 260m look light n sporty. i prefer na spec

Infamous...agree re the blacklines, but do you know how difficult it is to get parts at reasonable prices down here!!!
Interesting re the wheels too, always thought they looked slightly different to na spec cars but couldn't figure out what.

Right! Time for an update. I don't post often, but visit daily :-)
Lots of other little tweaks since first posting this thread... - 19" TSW Nurburgring wheels and Hankook K110 tyres. Not the greatest option, but its really difficult to find anything with the right fitment for the M. - Lowered on B&G S2 sport springs - ZHP gear knob - "minor" exhaust tweaks - AFE Filter
