ekis18 · 10-04-2013, 10:15 AM

Does she has a sister? LOL

DrivenByE30 · 10-04-2013, 10:30 AM

It seems to me you have made all the right choices in life !

My Man, you are Blessed!

Enjoy it all, and please be kind to others

Dude that's freakin amazing! I think your write up is quite nice and thank you for sharing this with us. I know I enjoyed the pics.

lawgone · 10-04-2013, 10:41 AM

Doesn't look out dated to me at all. I think the lines on the e92/e93 look so much cleaner and better integrated than on the 4 series. Sure, I could be biased but seeing as how my lease is up in March I wish I liked the 4er more.

Great pics and write up OP. Your description of Italy is spot on LOL. It's exactly how I felt when I first arrived to be stationed there in the Army.

Fantastic story! Euro delivery is such a wonderful opportunity, and it's great to see that you made the most of your trip. There's nothing like testing your brand new M on the Nurburgring to truly make you feel one with the car.

Thanks for sharing.

BabyZ · 10-04-2013, 11:01 AM

Freakin amazing!

She does, 2 lol look like her but about 3 inches taller, although one is already married

Staszek · 10-04-2013, 11:18 AM

Car is at the parents, at least I will get to enjoy it a few days before it gets shipped off again. I had it about 5 minutes before the first two mods were done!

Lux V4 and M3 black chrome grilles!

Sorry its dirty from transport, next step get it clean!

GOLFFRR · 10-04-2013, 11:22 AM

glad it made it back safely!

sonicbimmer19 · 10-04-2013, 11:28 AM

Congrats on your new car; I love E93 ///M3's and thanks for a great write-up!

FlyNavy · 10-04-2013, 11:32 AM

You did a great job sharing your ED (my girlfriend just loves to tell me what "ED" really means).

Curious...what did a fill up cost?

Alpine300zhp · 10-04-2013, 11:38 AM

Very nice writeup and pics. Looks just like mine with the top up. Gotta love Jerez over fox red.

ANTE92 · 10-04-2013, 11:40 AM

congrats.. nice

I cant remember exactly I think it was a bit over $100 each time, I do know that I spent about $1100 total.

AlteredBe4st · 10-04-2013, 11:56 AM

awesome pictures man, thanks for sharing.

mic_e92 · 10-04-2013, 12:16 PM

That's a great story with all the picture it's amazing.. I enjoy this thread

ghostchili · 10-04-2013, 12:24 PM

Looks like a great trip! My 335i xdrive Euro Delivery is getting built as we speak, from David as well. So far David and his team from Steve Thomas BMW have been Awesome.
Their service and prices couldn't be beat! I'm already planning my second Euro delivery trip before I even get my first car lol. My next car will start with an M. Hopefully I can post some pics like yours on trip #2 as this Euro delivery is at the end on my trip so ne ring for me

.
Congrats again on a great M3!!

C230AMG · 10-04-2013, 12:26 PM

Man, I gotta do this one day....

positiveions · 10-04-2013, 12:59 PM

Wow, that's an adventure. Thanks for sharing.

JSal16 · 10-04-2013, 01:17 PM

Congratulations on the M3. The car is beautiful. Glad to see you went with the 6-speed manual. Paddle shifting is fun but it's nothing like rowing through those gears on the floor.

Agio645cic · 10-04-2013, 01:18 PM

Picture perfect experience !!

Congrat !!
