New Guy... ish.

Hey Folks,

Just wanted to introduce myself as well. I take delivery of my 2016 M3 on Monday, and I couldn't me more excited! My options were pretty much everything, except CCB and 19" wheels, and full leather ( I prefer a black dashboard)

I haven't really seen any M3's around Boston, though i've seen M4's. I'm always down for golf, mountain Biking, or general tomfoolery. Also....wings. Anything we do needs to involve wings at some point.

As you can see from my signature, I used to own a 335i. I had, at least at the time, the first E92 335 on the east coast back in 2007. I ended up selling that car to pay for college and i've been on a rollercoaster ever since.

I've owned 2 STI's, i built and still own a gutted/caged Evo 8 Rally Car, and I daily Drive a 2001 A4 Avant 1.8t. i just sold my 2014 F150 to pay for the m3 as my new Summer/Fun car. It's a much longer list than that, but not really worth writing all down.

I thought it had the Hockey Stick and other stripe on either side?

Congrats!!! Beautiful color combination. I'm glad my wife never saw mine with all the "protective coatings" on it she leaves that crap on everything!

Best of luck with her and post more pics in her "natural environment" when you get them.

Any mods planned?

Congrats - a beauty. On the fence to order the exact combo or MG. What dealer did you use? Did they give a decent discount?

If it's an M3, go with whatever you want, I'm pretty much the only Sedan around, so it'll be rare regardless.

If you want an M4, i see MG M4's all over the place in Boston and the south shore, so i'd go white.

I went through South Shore BMW. I had a pretty Decent experience overall. My Pricing was quite good, but I had several corporate discounts working for me as well. Ashley in the business office is great and the sales managers are fantastic. The SA's are Trained on //M Cars, but If you're on here, you probably know more than they do (not their fault).

Overall, I ordered my car in late June and It arrived last week, which is much faster than a lot of folks, so i'm very pleased.

If you want, I can refer you my guy over there when you're ready to test drive or look at one.

I've owned a couple STI's. Amazing cars, but I work in Home Loans now, and I needed something that didn't make me look quite so young.

The Evo is gutted and cage and just gets trailered to HPDE's and Club Races, so it doesn't get driven as much as I'd like.

I might drive to the cape and back tonight on 3A just to get enough miles for the break in to be about done.
