Thanks! The picture posted has the winter wheels on; the summer wheels are the ZCPs.
Since that picture, I have added paint matched reflectors, carbon fiber mirror caps, carbon fiber high kick spoiler, AA axle back exhaust and a carbon fiber rear diffuser.

No doubt that the E92 is decidedly more agile though and swift. Enjoy. I may trade one day, but realistically, I'd rather just find an E92 for about $5k and have both. LOL |

Interesting that you decided to move within the model. I myself went to a M6 GC instead. http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1448544
Anyways, like you, I moved on from a 6MT to a DCT. I have the same thoughts exactly, the DCT is a really good system. Shifts are smooth but super quick. It turns the car into a different experience. So far I don't miss the 6MT at all. What I like about the DCT is simply its ability to drive like a slushy automatic in traffic in its lowest setting. I concur on the agility feeling moving from a E93. I test drove a E93 M3 DCT after driving my E90 M3 for a year. I can definitely feel the added weight of the car and its turn-ins were not as sharp. Almost felt like a longer wheelbase car.

The trade happened back in March. But, I did drive the M6 and the car was bigger than what I wanted. I like relatively small cars and the M3 fits the bill perfectly. Its small and nimble, but I can still put my bike, skis, etc in the car and enjoy a weekend away.

Since I have another car to track, and can drive other E92s at the track, I just couldn't pass up how great the E93 sounds and how awesome I feel with the top down. And if I ever supercharge it, I think I'll be in nirvana at times. LOL |

Im trying to explain to the wife ..... I'm not the only crazy one out there . Originally I wanted to keep just one . After a couple months I haven't posted either of them for sale . I can't pick . Swapping my charger from my e93 to the e92 almost feels like a waste of money (for a couple tenths of a second) Eventually the plan is to find a nice pcar and keep just one . I think for saleability the e92 will be most desirable in the future... especially 6mt.

Ha, that's the same way I look at it as well. It's true the E93 weighs more, but for street driving I promise you that I don't notice the weight nearly as much as I notice that I can push a button and the whole roof disappears.

At the end of the day, both amazing cars and would own either, but the e92 has the looks, drive and cargo capacity.

I felt the same. Then I lowered my e93 with K.W H.A.S. springs and that shit hugged the road like it was on rails. Drop was about 1.5 inches. It is a must. |
