Special thanks to BOOF specifically as he was the one who pointed out Erie Von Otto's listing to me on Thursday that hit every single of my requirement. Thank you Mark!

Erie Van Otto, the seller, is one heck of an individual and I truly consider it an honor to get to know him. Not only was he extremely helpful in providing all the information I requested and reaching out to the German dealership for more records, but as an individual, he is a fun, humble and an extremely knowledgeable person tackling so many responsibilities that humbled me so much. I am neither exaggerating nor praising lavishes just because he sold the car to me.

After a few conversations with him - and with Boof + another member here Derbo

, - I became motivated to improve my status from the current 'dumb' to 'dumb+'

. And, Erie Van Otto's passion for the car rubbed off so much that I have promised myself to do my best to take care of this rare car as close to how he did it.

Funds were transferred, and the next step of the process begins.

I am however traveling out of the country for a few weeks, and so don't think I will see this lovely car until I am back early March.

Oh well, I have been patient for so long and so a few more weeks shouldn't be that bad.

Will update the thread title once I am back.

THANK YOU EVERYONE!!

Patience paid off and quickly as well - congrats man - beauty of a car - instant unicorn status!!

I'm honestly thrilled to see a win come through for this seller and buyer. Looks good all the way around, from where I'm sitting!

Not a LRP car as they were never made for the e90 chassis. There are only 5 total factory orange e90 M3 sedans that were produced. This one is a wrap.

I tell you, I am so lucky!

Shipping arranged in an enclosed truck; hopefully it reaches my friend's place next weekend.

Pity I am traveling and returning home only on Mar 8.
