Congrats Jon! I'm really happy for you, bro. Looks like a great road trip car to get you out to Seattle this summer


BTW, I'd make the trip down to Iowa this Spring for a shoot if you wanted.

Very nice. I bet you got a great deal too!

A nice set of tinted tail lights is in order

I drove a E90 M3 DCT. Car was very nice balanced and wicked fast. However, the DCT was too smooth. I think you'll like your proper six speed. Ironically, 6 speed resale is bad because there are lots of lazy left feet.

Be careful driving it in your weather. Get some proper snow tires!

Thanks man! I love it so far.

I'm not going to get snow tires this year since I leave for Florida in just over a month. And IMO 6 speed is the only way to go on a M3.
