New owner

Aries326 · 10-04-2018, 07:08 PM

Hello, everyone! I'm a new M3 owner. I've been on this site for quite a few years now. I've got a Z4 3.0si 2008 AW with dream red interior that I still have.

I just purchased a 2013 M3 DCT with competition package, cold weather package, moonroof. Black leather with CF trim. It has about 36150 miles on it. I'm here to learn more I can about it and start picking up some mods.

Congratulations! I can't think of what you could do to make it look or run any better!

Yep, I bought it at a MB dealership owned by WestHerr in Rochester, NY. Their sister BMW dealership is next door.

Beautiful just the way it is

Enjoy!!!

Nice ride, welcome aboard

donnyblaze1 · 10-04-2018, 09:53 PM

That's a beautiful E92, welcome! I started my ///M journey with a Z4M before moving to an E90, I think you'll fall in love with that V8 pretty quickly.

That’s a one sexii mother fukker man, especially in AW! As for mod please don’t go all “riced rocket” out. The only mod you need is MPE and be sure it’s the version 2. And be sure to leave 2 qt of Castro’s 10W-60.

Now enjoy that intoxicating NA V8

Nice. Do you miss your Z4M? I'm going to keep my Z4 for when I want to drive with the to down. Z4 is already paid for and I'd lose a lot of money if I traded it in. May as well keep it.

Welcome to the community and best of everything with your M3. This is a great place to hang out and learn.

Yeah, I probably won't put too many mods. I think first few on the list is the OEM muffler mod, air intake, tune, new bulbs for the angel eyes, CF fender grills.

Maybe front lip, side skirts and rear diffuser. It depends if I've got enough clearance to get it up my driveway.

What's MPE?

No doubt! I remember when I first got my Z4 this app was one of the first things I installed on my iPhone. I was always trying to learn stuff about my Z4.

Yes, there are definitely times I miss the Z4M, but with a couple young kids I wasn't getting to drive it very often anyway. If I could have kept it for a around for occasional top-down driving I definitely would have, especially with prime roadster weather being around the corner here in Florida.

I've got some young kids too. They love riding in the Z. I came close to buying an E93 instead. The moon roof will have to suffice if they want the feel of wind in their faces.

How's the sounds compare to the OEM exhaust mod?
