Picking up my new M3 this week!

Had two BMWs prior to my current B8 Audi S4, including an E46 M3 I adored that I sold in 2012. Since then, I've been having M withdrawal. That is 4.5 years I've been wanting this new car.

Found the car I wanted in Philly area/south NJ. I live in the Carolinas. It was the last car on the entire East Coast configured the way I want it. It's 2017 Mineral White / Sakhir full leather, ZCP, all options except CCB. I am driving up there on Wednesday, picking it up Thursday, and driving home. 560 miles. Trading in the Audi.

Getting my V1 hard-wired by deliver upon delivery, and bringing TracTape. Already made an important to have it tinted when I get home, and will do Xpel protection in the next month.

Needless to say, STOKED! Can't sleep. Can't focus at work. Just two more days. I'll post pictures. Going from a 2010 S4 to 2017 M3 is a huge upgrade! It will feel good to be "home," back in an M!

Congrats! M-DCT or M/T?

let me know how it is! I'm a B8.5 owner and debating what my next move is. Top of my list is a 2018 M3 ZCP, followed by the 2018 RS3 or B9 S4 for the technology.

congrats, you will enjoy this car, remember rwd is a completely different beast than awd.

code euro mdm, and be careful punching it.
