Women with M3's?

daphne123 · 09-12-2008, 01:39 PM

Hey all, newbie to the forum here. At the end of the month, I'm trading in my Infiniti G35 for an '08 M3 coupe, 6MT, color undecided.

I was lamenting with my friends that the color selection really wasn't very feminine & they said "girls don't drive M3's"?

How 'bout it...is the M3 strictly a guys car?

The '09 E93 M3 I just bought (finally on the boat)

, is for my wife. She loves the Silverstone II.

!Xoible · 09-12-2008, 01:47 PM

i've seen lots of ladies drive M3's (E46's) so far havent seen/heard of one driving E92.

to answer ur question the M3 is a car for enthusiasts regardless of their gender.

In fact my own neighbor with "M3 MOM" plates really enjoys her 6MT E46 M3 to the fullest.

edit: i remember there's a member here that was shopping for E93 M3 for his wife after she saw one in Vegas and fell in love

I'm yet to see a woman driving an M3 in LA. LOTS of girls in 335 coupes though.

I'd say a chick in an M3 is a pretty damn hot thought. Get a Ducati too.

Hey there,

Wow! A lady that appreciates bad ass cars? That's cool and hot too

For real though, I think for the most part guys will want the M car just because it's awesome and most, hopefully appreciate it's potential and power. So normally I don't see girls driving around in cars like this and actually taking care of them.

But if you like hot rides then I don't see why not. Now I think a convertable is for sissy's but fine for girls. IMO, but that's me. I think Black, Red, white or silverstone would be fine colors.

Enjoy and let us now how you come along with it!

cheers

I've known women to drive ///M3's. My question to you is....

...Why do you need a feminine color? The fact that you're even considering an ///M3 differentiates you from a typical woman (...assuming you're considering this car for its performance characteristics). Kudos to you daphne!

!Xoible · 09-12-2008, 01:53 PM

btw Daphne's girls who drive 6MT's are hella sexyyy

Well, the majority of M3 drivers are male. I forget the breakdown, but it was in Autoweek long ago and was over 90% if I recall. That was for the E46 but I would not expect things to have changed a whole lot for the E92.

I assume you are female then? So out of curiousity, which colors are you leaning toward?

Also if you really, really want a different color it is now possible (though still difficult) to order a custom color on an '09 M3.

m3larson · 09-12-2008, 01:58 PM

My wife drives mine more then I do.. She loves it. She does get some stares from people but she lights the tires up and gives them a show..

Congrats on your purchase, you will love it.

SMSgt B · 09-12-2008, 02:10 PM

In the building I work, there's a women who is sporting an AW E93 M3.

MJC///M3 · 09-12-2008, 02:17 PM

My g/f is a big fan of the M3, needless to say when I get my 09', i may consider letting her drive it. haha

That's right. Girls don't drive M3's OR 911's. Not saying you can't, but you're not supposed to.

I know a couple- the wife has an new M6, he just bought the dealers e90 demo... we all know who wears the pants there. At least she was nice enough to buy him an M car

monsta · 09-12-2008, 02:50 PM

M3post member....nMd is a M3 owner....she's a great photographer too...check out my sig and AwesomeM3's sig....she has a E92 AW/FR 6mt

Dascamel · 09-12-2008, 02:53 PM

My wife been driving the M around mainly for the last 20 days. I'm going to surgicaly remove her hands from the wheel in about a week. That being said she loves the car and gets compliments on it all the time.

My response, "That really hot M3."

Just hope your wife doesn't read this thread lol
