Hi Guys,
Wanted to start a build/documentary/random pics thread for my latest car since this one is a keeper. I realize that not everyone wants to hear my story, so I will start out with the basics. I will get into my backstory in the 2nd post, so feel free to either read if you care to or skip to the 3rd post to begin the journal.
1a.) Introduction (car): My written introduction does not do this car justice. It is 99% of what I wanted (I did not want Jet Black again. This is my 3rd Jet Black car.) However, I concede with the other 1% because I am very well aware that I cannot find a car closer to my spec.
Specs:
2011.5 E90 M3 Sedan, Jet Black on GEAT (Speed Cloth)
• Slicktop
• 6MT
• ZCP Competition Package
• ZCV Convenience Package
• Power rear and manual side sunshades
• One owner
Understanding the rarity of these cars, I decided to PM
SickFinga to get some details behind it (Thanks @Sickfinga! Your PM box is full so I was not able to send a thank-you note!). He’s mentioned before that there were only 137 E90 ZCP 6MT Slicktops produced for the US market. As it turns out, my car is
1 of only 2 cars produced to the same spec! It’s a true unicorn. There are only (4) total JB/Cloth E90 ZCP’s produced, (2) 6MT/(2) DCT.
I am totally thrilled and relieved at the same time. The search is finally over!
