M3 update:

Supposedly it's on a truck right now somewhere in WI in transport. The driver should be leaving very soon to get to Motorwerks in the morning. It will most likely be taken off the truck, checked in, driven into Service to be PDI'd, then to detail to get cleaned up, and on the show floor by 10 or 11 am.

I hear from Frank in Parts that it's a delivery. I heard from other people that it's a floor car only. So IDK what to say yet.

What I do know is that it's Melbourne Red Metallic with black leather interior.

AND DON'T BOTHER TRYING TO TEST DRIVE IT, THEY WON'T LET YOU:stickoutt

I might go in tomorrow (my day off) to get pics. Otherwise I'll get them on Saturday.


damn and i forgot my camera today...

might have to swing by at lunch time.

keep us posted!

I might be interested in the clear set.
Do they throw any codes that I always hear about?

My rears have some cracks in them, I just noticed.
I have a boston green 97 328i and trying to determine if smoked
or clears would look better.

Any thoughts? Can not find any pics online of boston green with clears.

I did not have any tail light codes that others were experiencing, at least not on mine when I had them on the car. I believe there use to be a local guy that had that setup. Boston Green M3 with Red/Clear looks good. Here's a Boston Green with the clears on http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=582695

clears FTW!

are they sedan or coupe?


anybody got a box for me?

The M3 got there today. Turns out it's white with a black interior (not red)

Looks like I will be going to Motorwerks instead of Sears for parts now....unless Sears has an E92 M3 too.

Suprisingly, white is one of my favorite colors for the new M3.

Yup, I called earlier today to see if it was there. Going there tomorrow to check it out. I'm so glad they got an Alpine one, those Imola one's (especially with 18's) are just hideous, IMO.

I'll try to remember to post some pics.

Thanks,
I found this thread for a boston green with smoked setup.

Man its almost hard to tell the difference, expect the smoked tails dont seem to stand out as much. Damn...

Melbourne Red. And I have to agree, I really don't like the red that much.
BMW needs to come out with some better ///M colors soon. Interlagos is nice, but it's time to get a different blue. It'd be cool if BMW brought back another incarnate of Phoenix Yellow Metallic, like if they did Phoenix Yellow Metallic 2.

only this time not so baby puke yellow/green

Just thought i would post, its not mine, just was looking and seen the 540. Looks like a good price and a really clean car.

Anyone care to save this M3? Says the stock parts go with, who knows how he took the parts off though. :(

Well taken!!!

Car looks too nice.

Anyone in MN have E21 performance suspension or 15" wheels/tires for sale?

Hey guys! I'm looking for some rims for my ride, preferably with good summer tires on them. I'd like a set of stock contours firstly, but I can deal with others

Can spend up to $1000
Must fit an E36 M3 with no rubbing, no fender rolling required.

Let me know what you guys have. Thanks

i like the new M3 from the back...but not so much from the front

Is that the sparkling graphite color option?

I agree with the best color as well.

Color me interested on these. Would you ship them at all? What would a shipped price to 55024 be?

damn they did do a good job of fixing the front end!!

Shipping to that zip code would be about $15. So it would be $115 if you wanted ship. Otherwise, it's about a 45 minute drive from where I live to Farmington and I can always meet half way :)
