New E90 owner

Froglet · 06-08-2015, 09:12 AM

Hi everyone!

I live in Dubai and recently bought an E90 M3 with about 30,000 miles. The car has a full Akrapovic Evolution exhaust and various Dinan bits (Underdrive Pulley, Carbon Fiber Air Intake, DKG software and Engine Tune).

Here a few pics I made over the past month.

Welcome OP. Nice to see that the UAE club is growing.

08 sedans got the tilting headrests and parcel nets on the seat backs. Lucky...

Well, kind of

Actually, the majority of cars are normal like in any other country but there are also A LOT of really expensive cars around. In my home country (The Netherlands) an M3 gets quite some attention, but here few people turn their heads...

Nice car. Dubai always strikes me as an interesting place. Enjoy the car.

Thanks guys!

I love Dubai..and love your car even more

Froglet · 06-14-2015, 01:25 AM

Thanks!

In terms of engine mods I think this is about all I can do before I'd have to go for a supercharger... In terms of appearance I have considered carbon mirror caps and a carbon wrapped roof. I'm just thinking that the roof may be a bit too much though... What do you guys think?

Not only that but I see you get the euro version of the bottom of the seat that only e93's get here in the states.

Sweet car OP, love the color combo!

Which part do you mean? What is the difference exactly?

He is referring to the seat bottom cushions on the front seats. Good eye Stook!
