For those less fortunate...
For the individuals (like myself) who will not be able to purchase an E92 M3 for awhile. (got kids?)
I had the distinct pleasure to get behind the wheel of one a week ago thru participating in the Susan G. Komen (my mother is a breast cancer survivor) Ultimate drive event held in Palm Harbor, FL. If this event is touring in your city, take the opportunity to sign up as a guest. I personally, will not forget the fun I had taking it for a few spins around town. Thanks again Mom for inviting me! |

Cheers, fellow wine lover! I'm actually having a good Oregon pinot now. But your drink doesn't match you sig, like my suggestion. Got to get a "Monsta" wine.

I am a wine fan as well. Just rocking the J&C now.
I wish I could hibernate for about 6 weeks.

Generally, I like Inglenook and Paul Masson (pretty cheap), but some of the best wines I had were Australian. Far from an expert, but I'm getting there
I found that price rarely has any effect on quality or taste, but it could be that my taste is out of tune. |

My take...

I agree with some observers that the car has grown up to more of a GT than in previous models. My father owns a E30 with 95k on it (he is the original owner).(I also own a E36 sedan '07). I would like to see some reviews of new owners who will soon track their E92's. Carp |

Fellow wine lovers

When gnawing on a good steak, I usually go with a good Amarone (Tomassi or Bertani), Super tuscan wines are also my favorites. One Cal wine I have grown an affinity for is Quintessa, much fuller and better finish than Opus and Stags Leap Cask 23 (in my opinion). Since the US arrival of the E92 M3 though...I have resorted to drinking heavier spirits to quell my anxiety. I too love the single malts! (Lagavulen, Macallan & Glenroth's) Since my depression has gotten worst...I ocassionally down a shot of Patron Anejo' while "hiding" from my Wife and kiddies. All the best! Cheers! -Carp |

some good ones...
if you haven't done so yet, try Penfolds Bin 52 from Australia. Another inexpensive one is Black Opal and of course, Greg Norman's wines are not bad either.. all from Australia.
