135i to the M3 -- HOLY SMOKES!

FlyFish · 03-20-2009, 08:11 PM

Well, I finally had the opportunity to take a few pics of my new M3. If you remember; I was the one whom traded his 135i for a M3 Sedan. AND HOLY CRAP--WHAT A DIFFERENCE. The 135i was a terrific car, best that i had ever owned. But the M3, wow--the roar of the engine, the tightness of the ride, what a solid, fast, ferocious car. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!

Here it is!

Alpine White w/black Novillo Leather
Premium Pack
Tech Pack
Cold Weather Pack
Park Distance Control
Ipod and USB Adapter
Enhanced Premium Sound (rocks by the way...)

mind sharing your EQ settings? I know the enhanced sound has potential to be awesome but something just doesn't sound right to me as I currently have it.

Thanks and congrats on the new car/toy/obsession!

I mostly listen to my ipod; these settings sound as near perfect as possible!

Hope it helps!

you should write this in the 1addicts forum... youre going to get a lot of hate frm the 1addicts members out of jealousy!! hahaha

they'll always be a whole crowd that insists the 135 is better than the m3

nice

GnokGnik · 03-22-2009, 05:00 AM

Congrads, but why such a quick change of heart?

I mean, is the 135i so much different that you were willing to endure the HUGE $$$$ loss in trading it in for a M3 so soon?

jamesisel · 03-22-2009, 07:54 AM

Very nice Sir

I have always had a personal goal to own a 'new' M3; but the car was always just out of reach. Then, the economy made something happen that normally doesn't; New 2008 M3's in stock 10+K below MSRP. You must know how rare that is!

I sold a 1995 M3 to get into the 135i--so my payoff was much lower than most. Yes, the car was about 12K more than the 135i--but finally just in reach. Cut back on my lattee's each day and it's a wash!

Plus, I don't know if I would ever have this opportunity again to own this type of car. I had to make the move. HAD TO...
