Love the new ride. Just curious, do you know what someone traded in an M3 for at a toyota dealership? BTW, as far as snow tires are concerned, you should not base whether or not you get them on how long you will be driving in the snow (e.g., 1 month), you should get them if you will ever be in snow. I have seen too many cars, especially high performance, end up in a ditch or around a pole. Drive safely meng.

Thanks man, I'll try and send you a good pic tomorrow.
Yeah, it is the owner of the dealerships car and he ended up buying a Nissan GT-R to replace it.
Also, I've decided this car will see no snow. If there is any snow on the ground I can drive the family car. Thanks for the concern though, the last thing I would want is to end up in a ditch trying to drive it in bad weather conditions.

Thanks JC! I remember talking to you awhile back about them and I finally found one I like in my price range so I pulled the trigger.
Thanks man! I love it so far, it is definitely way faster than the Honda and a lot more fun to drive. I've found myself in triple digit territory on quick highway runs...I can't believe how much it pulls in almost every gear!
And I used to think the Honda was fast

I'm a bit late to the party but I just found out about your new car, Jon! Congrats! What happened to your Si? Traded it in? You couldn't possibly have made a better choice! I just went to take pictures of a friend taking delivery of a 2011 BMW 335iS and I'm reminded how gorgeous the lines of the 3 series are. Yours included!
