I'm back, just not sure how long.

Good evening gents. I wanted to share my latest OEM addiction. Some of you may remember the last rejuve thread as shown here.

https://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1678245

This one really didn’t need much but I’ll share anyway.

It’s a 2009 Alpine White on Black slicktop sedan. DCT, and a few other goodies. The car came from the forums and was well cared for. One treat was it came equipped with a brand spanking new set of OEM 359M wheels, tires, sensors and center caps! Onto the photos and the game plan.


Now it was on it way to me from about 2000 miles away.

Yeah, I tend to get antsy at about the year mark. Here we are. Believe it or not, as I stated in my previous thread I sold my 2018 F80 to get into my first 911. The 911 was sold to get back into this E90 and once again I'm searching for another great specced F80 M3.

Thanks man, appreciate the kind words. Being a middle-aged dad I find the hunt and chase more enjoyable than the ownership itself. Don't get me wrong I love to drive them I just lose interest shortly after and begin the chase for the next one to love.

Post The Maiden Voyage

Took my first real drive in the car finally. My process never includes doing much driving until the car had been meticulous corrected and protected. Just petpieve of mine I can’t get over. I feel much better driving a clean car to really enjoy it, and that I did. Followed it up the very next day with a voyage 60 miles to and from work.

So clean, especially for a 15+ year old car. How many miles?

IND Painted Reflectors & a Drive

Touched up a few things in the engine bay. Installed the updated OEM oil cap, installed a set of IND painted reflectors, then proceeded to take a cruise. These V8’s are intoxicating to say the least.

Amazing condition -- love the caretaker mentality. Glad to see these cars driven yet impeccably maintained. I've got 87K on my 2011 stripper and take the same approach.

Beautiful car but a bit confused. I've seen this car with those pics for sale on Facebook Marketplace in CT for a couple months now. You said you got the car from 2k miles away, do you have it listed for sale or is someone using your pics?

Car on facebook is using the same listing pics but the video has a different CT license plate.

I actually purchased this car last October. I've been lately toying around with the idea of getting back into another F80, hence the title. I generally keep my cars about a year or so. However I'm just now getting around to creating a thread here for reference. But yes, that is my for sale ad.

Arrow Full Wash

Gave her a full wash a few weeks ago and decided it was fit for a few more pictures.

Added a set of 12.5mm spacers front and rear after doing some research. It sounded like factory ZCP wheels and suspension could so 12mm rear and 15mm front safely. What I didn’t know upon ordering them was the .5mm extra on these. The rear does rub ever so slightly on larger gradual bumps if going over 40mph but nothing worth modifying anything over. If I could do it again, I’d go 10mm rear and 12mm front.

On to the pics.

Ok, great just wanted to be sure someone wasn't using your pics. The car looks gorgeous and I actually messaged you about that car, I ended up going with a manual instead of DCT so never came to see it.

I am jealous of the Alpine White, that is the color I wanted but couldn't find one in Manual so ended up with black. Hopefully I see you driving around before you sell it!

Great looking car! I was considering it before purchasing mine.

Super clean (like I like 'em) and in Alpine.

I'm sure it'll sell soon.

Interesting feedback... you are one of a few who went back to F80 M3. I must admit, it looks much better than the E90, however, driving characteristic is a different story.

Sold. Short lived, yes. Sad to see it go but it’s in a good home about 200 miles south.

New rejuvenation thread coming soon on the new car in the F8X section.
