Awesome. I didn't get a close look, but it looked good from afar. What are your specs? Is it stock? Did you do the expel clear film and/or any nano coating to the paint?

Do you workout there often? I'm usually there in the mornings about 4 times a week. I haven't seen your car before.

I'm still waiting for my M3. Should be June production. I did an individual order of San Marino Blue, silverstone full interior, carbon fiber roof and trim, 19 silver wheels, 6 speed, HK system, full LED, and adaptive suspension. I plan on adding some M performance bits when I get it as well. Its been a long wait. I ordered it in January.

If you have time one day, I'd like to see how the standard suspension feels. I'm buying this car based on all the reviews and having had a 98 E36 in Dakar Yellow for 7 years. I had bilstein sport shocks and HR sport spings on it. It handled like it was on rails, but was a bit punishing on some of these crappy Houston streets. I also still haven't heard the stock exhaust in person. I've heard it on all these videos but its not the same. The service manager at BMW Clear Lake is supposed to have the M perfornance exhaust on his car.

If I my car is at the gym, look for a short 57 year old guy and we can do a test ride. I had an 11 model M3 with the adjustable suspension. Comfort setting was softer than the new one, but I think it rides fine.
