DELIVERY !

dab33d · 03-26-2008, 05:20 PM

Hey Guys !

Just went up to San Luis Obispo to pick up my M3 this Monday and Man oh Man is it a beauty ! Like aforementioned, This Car is so much more stunning in person. The Roar of the Engine cannot be described, and can only be experienced ! It took a total of 430 miles roundtrip from SoCal to SLO and Back, but man was it worth the drive ! It was definitely a pleasant drive too along PCH and thru Santa Barbara.. The only unpleasant thing about it was washing off the front end and windsheild which was scattered with BUGS

The Car is definitely a head turner, and tinted windows are a must as I will get it done this weekend. Does anyone in the LA area know of a good tint shop to get it done at. The place I have gone to in the past did a poor job on my father's car and I do not want to go back.

Beware of cars around you for there are so many cars that want to challenge the Speed of our BEAST ! In total, on the way down a total of 7 cars tried to race me ! Jeesh, Haters... The 3 most notable were 1 650i, 1 Porsche Carrera, and 1 Brand New Porsche 911 Turbo.
All I can say is don't let in to the temptation, until you pass that 1200 mile point. And keep it safe !!!

Even at 5500 revolutions per minute, the engine is grand. I can't really describe it, but the sound does give a chill to your spine !

I was in a rush to take pics so forgot to do interior shots, but the red is sooo nice and SOFT ! Doesn't look orange to me at all !

1 complaint: Gas Mileage. took me 3/4 tank to get back from SLO TO LA Area, and had to fill up yesterday, $52 for a little more than 3/4 tank.

Other than that, couldn't be happier ..

Here are a few pics for now, sorry for the quality as I used a 5MP camera. Best of Luck to those who are patiently waiting for theirs.... trust me guys, its well worth the wait

M3Bruno · 03-26-2008, 06:59 PM

I love Coast BMW. That is where I always used to take my M3 to be serviced. LA is a Joke and my dad lives in SLO so it was a no Brainer! Beautiful car. Congrates! Don't even start with your MPG's..... I have an 07' M5 and if I actually drive the car a bit, I have no chance of getting there on a full tank from LA. None. LOL

RandyB · 03-26-2008, 07:33 PM

Looks awesome as usual in AW!

Enjoy it!

batchelorc · 03-26-2008, 07:44 PM
