I Pulled the Trigger. 2011 M3 Sedan :)

BatDad · 05-19-2014, 07:01 PM

I did it. Bye bye 2013 F30 335i Sport line. Hello 2011 M3 Sedan! Car only has 13k miles on it, 2k less than my 335 had lol. It was used at the South Carolina performance center and saw track time. Because of that it wasn't a CPO. I have two months left on the warranty and need to figure out what I should do about that. Had the catalytic converter replaced, but other than that no issues at all. I had a blast driving this thing home. Everyone was right. It just feels like a completely different car. My wife just got back from driving it and she said the same thing. You just don't know until you drive one. Only thing I miss is the updated interior, but once I get used to the M3's interior I'm sure I won't miss it at all.

I have been posting on here the past few weeks trying to decide if I should do this or not, and I want to thank everyone that helped me answer some questions and give their input

Here are some pics!

Oh man. I bought this because I was going to start modding my 335 and realized it would never be like an M! I need to wait a bit before I get into modding....or do I lol!

Hey thanks! I traded in the 335 black bat mobile for an M3 Alpine White lol!

MKE_M3 · 05-19-2014, 07:34 PM

congrats, love Alpine White and four doors FTW!!

BatDad · 05-19-2014, 07:45 PM

Anyone think I should be too concerned that BMW wouldn't certify the car because it was a track car at the performance center? Everything is in great working order and there's no problems. I didn't purchase the extended maintenance program because it just had it's 15k tune up and only plan on keeping the car for about two years. With such low mileage I took the gamble, but am open to hearing others opinions!

Ditto, three under 10 for me, so the coupe was out. I had an e92 335i before our third one and the sedan is just WIN in every way for me.

So you had e92 with 2 kids at one point. How was it? I am still debating whether I should go for a e90 or e92. I have one kid but I like the look of e92 way more than e90
