New M3 owner

jb84 · 01-26-2015, 04:24 PM

Hi guys,

Just thought I'd say hello as a new M3 owner as of the weekend.

Taken the plunge and bought a 2008 E90 M3 DCT in Jerez Black with black leather interior.

Absolutely loving it so far, albeit in the brief time I've owned it to date.

Planning to do a couple of small mods but nothing major as I think these cars look and perform so well as standard.

I look forward to getting to know some of you better.

Cheers.

Welcome from a fellow E90 owner. I can't think of a better sedan. I've had mine for a few years, still love driving to work every morning (through the twisties).

Congrats and welcome to the club!!

Welcome to the E90 family. Great looking car. JB is perfect for the sedan. Congrats and enjoy it!

Congrats! Enjoy that beautiful beast...

Very Nice! Great color combo. I feel the same about mods, at least for now, though I have to say I'm glad mine already had an exhaust kit on it. I find myself turning down the stereo so I can hear the real sound system!

Enjoy your new car.

Congratulations, car looks immaculate. What mods are planned?

Congrats! Looks super clean.

jb84 · 01-28-2015, 03:55 PM

Thanks for all the messages guys! Nice to feel welcome. So so happy with it!

On another note, does anyone know where I can download a copy of the owner's manual M3 supplement booklet from?! Looking for 2008 with iDrive. A fresh one from the dealer will cost me £48...!

Thanks! Really pleased with it. Planning LED angel eyes and matte black kidney grilles in due course. Don't think it needs a whole let else. Any suggestions?

Tint the front windows.
