Finally an M owner!!

so after wanting an M3 since they introduced it a few years back, I immediately became obsessed with it

placed my order for a silverstone metallic e92 m3 december 1st. 7 weeks later, its sitting in my garage!!

i love the thing

its so hard keeping it under 5500 but i figure, whats 1200 miles of torture...ill open the thing up soon!!

ill upload more pics tomorrow but heres a few

just swapped ZCP rims off for the stock 18s with winter tires due to the fact that its still snowing here in boston

Congrats!!!! I have an AW 2011.5 Coupe in Boston as well. Just did the same exact thing, picked up some stock 18's to deal with the weather here. I thought I could make it through the winter and pick up some winter wheels next year but no way with the snow we've had so far. My daily driver too... I'll be on the lookout.

These are absolutely awesome news!

Wellcome to the family!

Congrats!

Great combo! Silverstone was always my fave... only at the very last moment I ordered SG... otherwise it would have been Silverstone + ZCP

Good choice on CF Roof!!! Stunning with SS! Needless to say, pictures don't do it justice...

once you pass 2k miles it'll be like a different car altogether, - faster, quieter, and better mgp for sure! I was getting 8.5 mpg hwy before break in! Now, at ove 2k miles I get 18.5 mpg hwy...
