I've only put 100 miles on the M3 but it handles the bad roads much better than my turbo. The M-DCT is great, auto mode is very smooth and there is no letting up between shifts and of course Manual mode is quick. Can't wait till the 1200 mile breakin is done The family thinks my cargraphic exhaust in the turbo is too loud so I just drive that when I want to row the gears by myself

Hi Dave,

I assume you are no longer getting the GT-R?

Hi,
Got my deposit back. M3 fits my needs as a DD better than the GT-R, when is your car arriving?

I have never been a big BMW fan. But that new M3 is starting to change my mind. I just love the look and sound of it. I bet it moves too.

Any mods in the future??

Larry, I was thinking about you when I saw this!

Your girlfriend better look out for gretapass!!

Greta --I'm flattered by the compliment .Thanks.

Barrister -- I want to mod my M3 so badly. I don;t like the stock wheels at all . They are a huge PITA to clean . I like both the Vorsteiner and Active exhaust. I want to lower it too .

My girlfriend is the primary driver and she loves this car so much "just the way it is" .
I bought the car for her more than myself so it will stay stock .

Since you asked,

Alex/Sharkwerks will have the car next Friday for a week+ to upload some secret sauce and other goods. We are also looking at some more suspension fine tuning. I might be pulling off the TA and Rinspeed stuff for some updates if I can get my act together by then... if not, I will wait until Fall.

Again, the new ride is very nice!
