M3 Ordered! But need to change my name...

Hi guys,

I've been on here for a while, and just want to say that M3post has helped me decide on my next ride. I'm super excited, production is set for the week after next, but I think I'll have to change my name from 6MT - went with the DCT! Here's my spec:

Silverstone
Black Novillo
Carbon Leather Trim
Competition Package
Premium Package
DCT
Enhanced Premium Sound

good choice... I just went from a 6Mt to a DCT and it's sick... It's a whole new fun factor.

Congrats! I to have made the switch from 6mt to DCT. I ordered my M on Januray 7th and it just arrived at VDC in NYC yesterday, hopefully it gets to the dealer next week... just to give you a timeline. About 2.5-3 month wait from start to finish. Not sure how much longer for west coast.

You can't order an e90 (since May of 2012).

OP - congrats. I went from a highly modded 335 to the DCT M3.
