My newsed E92 ///M
When purchased: Sept 1, 2012 Year and Model: 2008 E92 M3, Build Date August 08. Jet Black with Bamboo Beige Novillo Leather and Sycamore Anthricite Wood Trim. Miles: 70,121 Options: Technology and Premium Package, CF Roof, 19" Wheels Transmission: DCT Clean PPI and no accidents Price: 33,000 Flew in to Alabama from the D.C. Metro Area to pick it up and drove back. Analysis. Compared to my 330ci WITH 250K miles the power is OTHER WORLDLY and the V8 sound is FREAKIN AWESOME. The DCT is crazy quick. It's a HULKUSH AUTOMOBILE and I love it. Let the intoxication begin.

yes it was. Picked up the car from Montgomery AL, drove 2 hours to Birmingham, 2 hrs to Chattanooga TN, Then 8 hrs back to WV. Got a chance to play with the Auto and DSG settings as well as the I Drive. Is there a way to upgrade the I Drive to the latest version? I'll do a search.

Congrats! That ///M still looks good. Love Jet Black and initially thought about the Bamboo and Wood combo.
How has the interior held up?

Interior held up well. The driver seat leather is worn a little on the bolsters. The sound system is incredible compared to my E46
