Mate have you received your car yet?

zenderm3 · 11-03-2009, 05:54 PM

Oh the frustration! I can't pick my car up until the 19th of December!!!! It isn't a dealer thing... it is a family/army/work thing!

Oh well... Gilbo... you might even have your car before me!

anthonygilbo · 11-03-2009, 09:43 PM

Thats not good zender!! You need to get things prioritised.. I was about to send you a message saying congrats on your car making it to Aust waters, but guess it doesn't make much of a difference. Mine will be in South Africa on Friday. Getting closer everyday!!!

Haha... I know I totally have my priorities all wrong... However.... like you.. it will be a great feeling having the car ready to go... and time will totally fly! It basically is 3 more weeks wait.. with a potential to be less than that on the basis that I can move things around! Sad that work has to take priority over getting my dream car...

When is your car meant to arrive in Brisbane mate?

wmj73 · 11-04-2009, 02:26 AM

zenderm3 still no car, you must be going crazy!! Just wanted to let you know, the brisbane 1addicts are going to have a meet in dec and you are most welcome to join us with your new beast if you wish unless there there is a m3 meet on the same day

Thought id let you know since your a frequent poster on 1Addicts

zenderm3 · 11-04-2009, 02:29 AM

Thanks Wmj... .definitely would be very happy to catch up with you guys... have a lot of respect for 1ers

Do you guys have a date yet in December?

anthonygilbo · 11-04-2009, 02:55 AM

Mine is due to arrive in Brisbane on the 27/11. Can't wait...

zenderm3 · 11-04-2009, 06:12 AM

Gilbo... you will have to drive up to South Bank and let me see the edition and salivate over my dream car.. and how close, yet how far away it is!

cargeek · 11-04-2009, 06:33 AM

I hope you guys don't mind me joining in this thread. My car arrived in Melbourne on the Monday. I have no idea how long it will take to get to Hobart. Whats more, we pick up our cars then we have drive daisy for the first few thousand k's.

zenderm3 · 11-04-2009, 06:36 AM

Welcome Cargeek... definitely don't mind.. the more the merrier! Besides... in some respects you have the old yet new M3 engine

Love 135s! And to get an M3 as well... Congrats on your car's arrival... hopefully you are soon acquainted with your new wheels... and have to go through the torture of the daisy driving experience! What colour interior did you get?

cargeek · 11-04-2009, 07:02 AM

Hi zenderm3, I chose black interior with AW. The car is optioned with everything except blinds. I chose it from the cars already on the way to AUS. I didn't think I could wait 4 months again and I got an attractive deal by picking a car already ordered. I really like the red interior in my vert but the black leather in our E91 seems to wear better so I was happy with this colour again.

The 135 engine is incredibly easy to drive around town. The torque down low is so entertaining....but I'm really looking forward to revving the V8 to 8000+

Maybe, but I just love nice cars. BMW finance love me.

I just need to sell the 135i, don't get me wrong they are an awesome car but when you buy something else, cause it was a great deal, something has to go and at this stage it has to be the 1.

Not big enough for those two plus a TTS, nor is my income

And you have quite an island to drive on too!

cargeek · 11-08-2009, 06:24 PM

the roads are awesome but we have plenty of police and a big budget deficit which equals SPEED CAMERAS

zenderm3 · 11-09-2009, 06:15 PM

Bloody speed cameras... someone should get a can of black spray paint, lol
