Week ago last Friday, Space Gray e92 on 8th Street before Folsom, in San Francisco. Women was feeding the meter and I noted "Nice ride!" No response...

XnogarD · 11-30-2015, 02:13 PM

Spotted Red E90 at Quail hill plaza, plates was M2QWK4U, has aftermarket exhaust.

Bit of a long shot, but I just spotted a silver ZCP E92M in Manhattan Beach behind the Village Mall in front of the country club. It had a large decal of some logo across the door and rear quarter panel, an aftermarket exhaust, and an M Performance CF spoiler.

I was struck by the car's exhaust note and stance. Both were more aggressive than stock but not obnoxiously so. If anyone has more information about this car, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks!

E92 LSB M3 spotted afternoon around 1pm in Irvine yesterday on irvine spectrum drive - I was in the IB m3 at the intersection.

Efini · 12-06-2015, 02:25 PM

I always see a black e90 on LMs at Caltech in Pasadena. Finally saw him dropping off his kids at the childcare center and told him he had a nice car.

That could be him, though I'm pretty sure he had stock Style 359M wheels that day. Do you know if he went back to stock wheels recently?

If so, do you mind asking him 1) what kind of exhaust he's running, and 2) what kind of suspension he had on that day?

Many thanks.

Spotted a Melbourne Red E92, on BBS LM and a GT4 wing on the Irvine 405, exited Culver

macdude357 · 12-14-2015, 11:08 AM

Got passed by a black E92 heading southbound on 163 near the 8 in San Diego.
