OT Warning

Trading it in but not really getting fair $$$ for the added Dinan stuff.

Got $10k off on the M3 with 1% finance so it is a wash with 10k depreciation, I know, ouch.

The M3 is a Silverstone loaded E90 with Mdrive, Exec, EDC. Really nice car, beautiful suspension and engine. All black interior, Novillo leather Anthracite Sycamore trim.

Take a look at it how it looks here

I'll have winter tires on at p/u and we'll see how the winter goes. I am a pretty calm winter driver and I really hope that it'll go okay. I hope scooby is wrong

Got Eisenmann sport exhaust on order and getting 19's for the summer.

^^ I think 99.99% of the time there will be no issues with a good set of winter tires. It's really the unplowed less traveled residential areas that can be tricky after a huge dump of snow. But honestly, how often do we ever venture in these areas?

Very nice! The M3 is a proven champ right out of the box. You're going to have to up the caffeine intake, however. Your peaceful days of driving a sleeper are about to end, especially with jealous punks like me out there.

Yeah, true there. No sleeper at all.

Caffeine is not a problem, I work in Alberta, I've been running on caffeine for 3 years now

I'll post pics later once I p/u

Gonna have to work hard keeping up with all the 335xi jet powered cars out here

Hey, here's a thought. Do you know if Cal. BMW plans on putting your xi back to stock? If so maybe they're interested in swapping oil coolers with me so I can get stage 3?

Doubt it
It'll be sold I am sure as is for them to keep their costs down
