Not mine but saw this locally. Looks damn near identical to mine minus the ugly interior and transmission.

That interior kills it.

Thread title says LSB, I was expecting Laguna Seca Blue

Ad says Interlagos Blue, but that's LeMan's Blue (confirmed via VIN decoder).

Interior looks like Palladium, which I actually think looks great. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder! I couldn't find a red M3 with that interior and a 6MT, so I had to settle for black interior. Too bad it's SMG though - that REALLY kills it.

SMG? Damn, they told me my 2011 e90 had DCT, lying bastards!

LOL! That's what I get for replying when sleepy in the evening...and for all of that E46 experience years back!

To be fair, the DCT is such a huge improvement over the SMG, enough to be tempting for a city driver at least.

I have owned both (DCT e92 M3 and 6MT e90 M3) and I honestly prefer the DCT by just a little bit. I like the responsiveness of the DCT when on the track but enjoy the overall daily driving of the manual. My only gripe is 2nd gear in the manual, which is a problem across most platforms with this transmission. It isn't as smooth or fluid to get into or out of when really getting into it.

I'm not sure this car exists. I called that same dealership about that car (or one very close to it) while I was on the hunt last year and it supposedly had already sold.
