Me neither, although my older brother has a Jerez Black 2008 e92 M3. I've been in it plenty of times but he never let me drive it. He doesn't even let his wife drive it though.

Sounds like how mine will be. I've driven my mom's 2011 E93 but that's about as close to a test drive as I've ever had. My wife will also not be allowed to drive the car. Plus she says it's ghetto cause I'm getting the "ugly red interior".

You should definitely get a set for your monte carlo blue M3. Just get the light blue Volk stickers. It's crazy how light they are. I weighed the fronts and the wheels PLUS tires weigh 42 lbs! That's an 8 lb savings over zcp wheels with stock sized tires and probably 10+lbs with 265 fronts on like mine have.

I'll let my wife drive the M3 just cause I think it will be cool to see chick drive one, all I ever see drive M3's are old dudes.

[QUOTE=kmarei;10822214]pics of my 2012
the Le Mans Blue is gorgeous!
and i love the painted interior trim
hats off to IND for a spectacular job in the painting
and the best packaging job i've ever seen
each piece of trim was covered in soft microfiber towels
well worth the cost

mods so far
Edition front grill and side grill
Lux 8 angel eyes
Painted interior trim from IND
and VMW 710 winter wheels in graphite with dunlop 245/40 18" tires

now for the pics!

Sweet painted interior trim....wow!!!!
Congrats on the car and PERFECT mods!

It'll be cool to see a chick drive one until she runs over a parking block while parking and ruins the front bumper

Ok, just making sure you weren't one of the 20-somethings on this forum who consider anyone over 30 OLD! I'm 47 so I have you beat by a couple of years......it shocks me to hear the number of college students on these threads that are taking delivery of a new $70K+ car........took me a while to be able to afford one......guess it makes me appreciate it more!

Just got a Call from Ryan @ STBMW my car has finally arrived! That was the longest two months of my life. Too bad I can't get it til next week.
I just want to thank everyone here for all the info on my new ride everything from tracking to future mods. and a special thanks to golfer for the "hook up"

By the way I just turned 33. I was feeling old till I read the latest posts. I feel better now.
