BMW M3
 

Went round to my mates today to take some Pictures of his M3! Has to sell it because his Wife is expecting there 3rd Child. He's gutted it's got to go. Needs something bigger and 4 doors.

It's in the For Sale Section on here... Check it out:thumb: Anyway!

He Let me Drive today Before it goes. WOW:eek::eek:

I love it:D :notworthy:notworthy:notworthy

The Powers there from the off. And just keeps going:thumb:

The Sports Mode is Amazing. Makes it even more Responsive:norty:

Had it mapped aswell so it's alot quicker than others. I'd love it, just can't afford it :(:cry:

Anybody else like them!

Here's one of the Picture's I took:

Nice car but having a 1 year old whos nappy I need to change often kinda puts me off it.

Nice car, but that colour looks like something that could've come from a one year olds nappy

kinda like that colour, definately one that stands out!!

Was looking into E46 M3 in the phonix yellow my self but was put off, now looking into 335i

I'm not a big fan of the colour but I love the cars :) This is mine in Titanium silver

Was it remapped by Evolve?

Yeah i just got mine too. Awesome cars. They just steam on and on!

I like the Colour, it's different. Stands out from the rest :top: Bit like my Scoob in Mica Red

Drove it yesterday after I took the Pictures. Couldn't beleve the power. It's their from the off, and just keeps going :notworthy It really is like new. Gutted I can't afford it. :cry:

You lot that have are Jammy b######s that have one;)

Am not sure mate!

That is sweet in that colour and those wheels :luvlove: I cant understand why anyone would turn down a colour like this and purposely choose colour barf.

I have had an E30 M3 , and E36 M3 , just taken a deposit on my E46 M3 , and just bought an E92 M3 which I'm having sprayed at the moment a tidy colour lol ,as you may have noticed , I like them :thumb:

Just one of those things i guess.I would like to see what the new M3 like compared to the E46 i had.

I found that it took a while to get used to the M3 because of the different driving style that you have to use compared to my previous cars. Unlike turbo cars you have to rev the M3 but once it's on song it's wonderful, you can't be lazy and use the torque like I could on the Focus ST I had before it.

Thats the biggest difference I felt straight away when I drove my new one is the extra torque , it pulls from nothing where as my E46 needs revving to get the best out of it , and the new 7 speed DCT box is amazing , it's instant lightening quick gear changes

Will need to be having one at some point. Love the look of the e46 M3, always have.

They are amazing...... When I bought mine I drove it back home, got in and put the kys down and just thought to myself "I have just made a very expensive mistake" 1 week later and I just cannot get enough of this car, so much fun, sounds great and really shifts.

It's just a case of getting used to the car and adapting the driving style.

You lot got all the toys my mates got.

Is the insurance Expensive!

Don't like the gold one but that silver one is a beauty.

As for the E92 - I plan to have one at some stage. Only drawback after the (much slower) 335d is that they are pretty low on torque. However they look utterly fantastic and the V8 is a beaut.

Evolve do a completely bonkers supercharger conversion (or broker someone that does - not sure) which sorts the torque right out!

Here's my new one

What it looked like 2 weeks ago

Both lovely Ian! Well jelous.

Wont the colour change kill the value of the car ??

Why ? if I had seen one advertised Estoril blue I would have snapped it up if it had been done properly

I agree. If I was in the market for a prestige car like that, I wouldn't go near one that had been resprayed, especially in another colour, even if it was "done properly" with photos to prove it wasn't accident damaged. There are always plenty more original M3's to choose from. Will it affect the BMW warranty for bodywork corrosion etc.?

ok if it does it does , i'm not interested in that as I have just bought it , and plan on keeping it for quite a few years , non of the standard colours grabbed me , so I am having the colour changed for me :thumb:

Fair play to the man that has the balls/cash to respray such an expensive car that has nothing wrong with it. I dont think I could ever do it for the value reasons already mentioned - selling cars when you are finished with them is hard enough as it is. Will look mint if it is anything like the car photographed however :)
