New to the forum

Well I finally made the plunge. My first BMW and a M3 to boot! After owning a Camaro SS, a few Mustang Cobras and a Z51 Corvette. I purchased a used 08 M3, 6 speed , Space Gray, Fox Red interior, Tech and Premium package, Carbon fiber roof and heated seats. It was a choice between the Audi S5 and the M3. It was over once I drove the M3!! Awesome vehicle

Welcome!

I too (briefly) considered going to the dark side and getting an S5, but eventually I came to my senses and went with the M3!

Good choice on the M. I love that you get it and a lot of people don't understand its the driving feel and speed

The S5 sure is really pretty, but only okay to own if you're also a proud owner of a vagina

Sorry it took so long. I've modified it some. Tinted the windows, added a CF roof spoiler. The wheels are Breyton GTS, I'm having them powdercoated black this week because the matte grey doesn't contrast enough for my tastes.

Powder coated the grey breytons black

After I purchased the grey breytons, their just wasn't enough contrast so i had them powdercoated black. Should of went with this color in the first place!

Looks badass! You might consider changing out the side gills and ///M3 emblem for matte black ones to match the grills.


Cheers.
