New M3 owner

Nuke818 · 11-05-2012, 12:17 PM

Finally picked up my M3 on Wednesday! Got to the dealership right when one of the guys in the service department was going to fill it up so I made sure to see how he was going to leave the lot. When he got back I was able to snap some pics of the car with the white protection plastic still on it. Initially I was going to take care of the paperwork and just get the heck out of there but they actually wash cars by hand so I was ok having them detail it. Took about an hour and a half to prep the car. I even got to take the trunk section of the plastic off. After I got home I felt like a kid on Christmas morning and couldn't really sleep so there was only one thing I could think of doing. Driving of course! I ended up putting 100 miles on it and really got a chance to mess around with the iDrive, MDM, EDC, and power buttons. Really love the car and am looking forward to getting to 1200 miles so I can really see what the car is capable of.

Thanks. Yeah one of the first things I noticed were the tires. I know a lot of us have been getting different brands so I was pretty happy when I saw the Michelins.
