Fixed.

Oh how I live that inline-6. BMW inline 6 engines is by far the biggest reason I'd consider one over an Audi....such a fantastic engine.

WTF is wrong with me? LOL

Brag and Moan?

Hope your rape on that trade-in wasn't so bad.

It's ok to be jealous. Hell, I'm jealous. I would've gone for something like used '06 or '07 M5, but I like bigger sedans. I just can't afford and justify atm.

My ass will be hurting for the next year, I think...

Ahh...your poor new M3. I'll be dollars to donuts that it'll be full of swirls from the dealer's "detail".
 
Kadarin, I have to ask, how old are you? I hope you're older than me and that I can sling a 335 for an M3 at some point!

Congrats! Sweet car. I think you should turbo it 🙂

Thanks! I'm 39.

That car with a twin turbo setup would be serious insanity! It's staying stock for the time being.. 🙂

We'll see in a few once I pick it up.
 
im absolutely jealous. the new m3 is my within reach dream car. please get pics soon.

i remember seeing a tester e92 m3 in a parking lot blacked out and debadged with antennas and all sorts of gizmos...i nearly turded myself that day.

awesome car man, have some fun with it. remember to take off traction control every now and again...or indefinitely.
 
I fcking hate you Kadarin!

Congrats and Enjoy the depreciation 😀

BTW how much money did you lose in the process of trading the 335i for the M3?
Also how would you compare the driving pleasure factor between both?

Grats on the M3. For some reason I thought you were a 20-something.

yea I thought the same. I was dying from jealousy because I thought you're around the same age as me and you're getting all these nice cars. But you being 39 makes it slightly better. I'm still insanely jealous though 😛

The M3's always been my favorite car

About 9K.

They're two completely different cars. The 335i is a very strong basic midsized luxury car, whereas the M3 is an absolute beast. I would say it's like someone took the 335i and combined it with the GTO, and kept the best parts of each, except that it's not really like that. It's better.

I haven't driven the M3 enough to really appreciate it yet, and I won't fully appreciate it until it's been properly broken in. But I love it already.
 
Good choice Kadarin!!!

Not the wisest financial move, but its a great car. They had a free one you could drive at the BMW save-the-breasts event, and its quite impressive. I hope you don't jump ship for the GT-R later on like the rest of the lemmings.

Great choice on the coupe. It's absolutely amazing how much better the 3 series coupes look than the sedans.

Gorgeous! I'm jealous.

"Honey...I'm looking at our investment accounts and somehow they just bottomed out and we lost $67K...the upshot is a stranger just gave me a brand new M3..."
 
Time for painted reflectors/euro bumber, lower it a little bit, vorsteiner vcsl trunk lid, maybe front carbon fiber spliters, eseinmann exhaust, software and your good to go! 😀 What options did you get?
 
Is this same car that some guy got for msrp that was going for 100K everywhere else? If so, why was it so easy for you to get it for the price you did? HOT looking car either way.
