European Delivery: 2016 Laguna Seca Blue M3

Brasko · 11-10-2015, 12:28 PM

Hi all,

I'd like to begin by saying thank you to everyone in this community for all the feedback, knowledge and insight you've provided. It's helped me through the decision process, planning and purchase of my 2016 M3. In the next few months I hope to give back by sharing images, insight and knowledge about my build.

In the mean time, here is a sneak peek of my European Delivery M3. I took delivery on October 19, 2015 @ 4:20pm. Build specs and planned modifications are listed below. I'll have more pics and a proper build thread once the car arrives and I've had time to sort thru my images. Also, this is the same LSB M3 in Mustangquadcam's ED thread in case you are wondering.

And for those of you who are on social media, link up with me as I will be posting and sharing my build on there as well.

Depends on your goals and preference.
If you are looking for a easy install, instant power and unbeatable deal JB stage 1 would be the best choice.
If you plan on adding more mods, you can either do JB4 or flash. Each option has its own pros and cons.
I am more than happy to explain each option to you in detail as well.

I'm planning on doing more modifications than I listed...Downpipes, charge pipe, cat-delete, etc. so a flash/custom tune would probably be best. Dinan was my original choice, but nothing is set in stone yet.

Once I get the car back in the states it would be great to connect with you and discuss my options.

Great looking car! It was great to get our two BMW Blues together in Munich, and I look forward to getting them together again when they both make it back to Oregon!

Nice Nurburgring pic, did you drive the car on the ring?

SW19 · 11-10-2015, 09:05 PM

Unfortunately the track was rained out for the day. I did play around on the kart track though.

I'm glad you noticed that too. There are at least 3-5 color shifts in the spectrum. I'll post more pics once the car arrives in the states.
