0 wasnt m3 Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 Congrats on the new ride! Figure how to get the pics up, we want to see it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 REKIII Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 Also, is the other M3 still available? Contact info or a link to the ad? Might be a good deal for someone.Congrats, but at the same time, boo to you for leaving the refined world of the 5 series, and going for a boy-racer 3 series, hahaha.

Really though, e46 M3's are awesome.....hopefully the OP won't turn into a total douche like most (not all) e46 guys are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 michael1972 Posted January 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 I loved my 530 but I needed a change and some more power. Also it was a goal of mine to own a M of some sort and the e46 M3 is just such a hot car. No worries I will not be turning into a douche but I have been known to be a bit of a ass sometimes. I will try to post some pics once it warms a little and I can get a chance to wash it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 michael1972 Posted January 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 The other m3 is on Minnesota craigslist its in arden hills. Its a red one I think he was asking $10,995. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 michael1972 Posted January 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Its dirty but you get the idea. I got both sets of wheels with tge car and wanted to see how the m6 wheels looked. The finish on them is messed up but other then that they looked allright. I put my summer set from my e39 up for sale. If anybody has some 19's that will fit the m3 that might want to trade for em let me know. No chrome. Lookin for something dark and aggressive for the m3.

0 michael1972 Posted January 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Yea I need to sell my varrstoen's from my 530 so I can buy a new summer setup for the m. Or trade em for a nice setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Brian. Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 yeah, I hear ya. I wanna sell my rims, but no one on this forum would want them, and I highly doubt I could find a buyer on CL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
