M3
  • M3 Sold

    Add another car to my tally. After a relatively brief ownership, the M3 is now en route to its new home in Boston, Massachusetts. I like cars that are clean and lower miles, but holding firm to those standards can become a virtue and a vice. I alternated daily driving the M3 every couple of […]

  • E46 M3 Photo Dump Part II

    The M3 came with section 1 Rogue Engineering Rasp Pipes and a section 3 exhaust. I filled the gap with a section 2 X-pipe from Status Gruppe. The days of laying on my back on cold cement floors are over… My standards have elevated and I no longer want to bother with jack stands if […]

When the deal was set and confirmed, I preordered a new set of 19″ BBS CH wheels and Dunlop tires […]

  • 2004 BMW M3

    For the past year, I have been casually looking around for an E46 M3. The seed was first planted with a Want to Buy ad on the M3Forums. My requirements were strict and my intent vacillated as the months went by. I came to realize that finding the absolute exact car I was looking for […]
