Hi Guys,

I am new to this forum and just got my e92 m3 which I had been so excited for. It is a 2010 coupe Space Gray, 6MT with all the options. Initially, I wanted one in white but after seeing this in person and the kind of overall deal I was getting, it was hard to turn away. So I picked her up last night and fell in love with it right away.



A little background: I have driven some high performance cars since a fairly young age (Thanks to the high-end car rental family business), and have also been riding supersports bikes for many years now. But I still remember the first time when I drove my cousin’s M3 last year. That v8 sound, high revving engine, and overall feel of the car was just so special.

I have heard a lot of good things about this forum and have done some research regarding potential issues and other info I needed on the car using this site, and so far it seems very helpful and friendly. Hopefully I can meet some of you who are from Toronto (which doesn’t seem like a very big number) at the next meet, whenever that takes place. Also looking forward to be an active member of this awesome site.

On to some pictures I took last night, along with my brother’s B8 S4:

I just turned in my lease and ordered a brand new F80 and am missing my e92 every waking and dreaming moment! Never give that v8 up!! Cant wait to get into another very low mileage 2013 and keep her forever. I learned so much from experimenting on my old leased car. Had 60k miles and enjoyed every second of it. Has different tunes, different xpipes, different audio upgrades and now I know exactly what I would do on my next e92. SO much more fun to mod the e92 as turbos bore me

Hopefully you come back to the e92 family once again and enjoy it in best of health.

I have a tendency of switching cars fairly fast lol but I am pretty sure that I will be keeping this one for a few years to come atleast.
As far as the mods go for me, I think mostly it will be limited to just cosmetics, with an exception of maybe getting a tune and exhaust.
