LA Southbay e9x ///M Drivers Report In!

SoCalRPM · 02-09-2019, 11:54 AM

Curious how many people are on here that live in the area. I see a decent amount of e9x Ms driving around El Segundo, Manhattan, Hermosa and Redondo...

XKxRome0ox · 02-10-2019, 12:52 PM

i live in West LA but my in-laws live in Torrance so I end up driving down there about at least once or twice a month
usually in my wife's benz e350 (because she thinks my M3's ride is too bumpy and harsh)

but once in a while it will be in my boring old alpine white e90 m3
tinted windows, f80 M3 wheels (style 513m), and aftermarket valved exhaust

I've got the MR e92, as well. Beauty of a color. Love that blue, though. Is the In/Out Meet every Friday? I don't know that one

Nice. It was the wheels that made me think so. I don't know if they were exact, it was so quick, but someone's got a similar setup!

Subbing to this thread for updates, I have an E92 ZCP in Mineral White and my parents live in the South Bay.

Definitely see a lot of M3s in the area.

+1 for Ruby's. Been going on for over a decade, maybe two.
