1 year later... its home...
I started this process of trying to figure out an ED and ordering an M3 literally one year ago.
After all kindsa stress of when the ordering would open up, scheduling ED, picking colors, trying to find an allocation and finding a dealership that would work with me so far in advance it all worked out. After a September ED, and PCD a few days ago tonight... My M3 finally made it to its new home in my garage. Couldn't be happier or more excited... To all the folks who helped me out here on the forums including the gentleman at PCD on friday who gave me the tracktape that he had left over for my drive home this weekend, THANK YOU! Hopefully I can pay it forward someday... |

Awesome!! Is that an old integra/prelude project car in the back (apologies if not, not too learned on JDMs)
Edit: maybe Nissan?

It is indeed. I'm probably the only one in the world stupid enough to restore one... but its an original vtec motor car (not a swap). I love my Hondas. The S2000 is at a relative's house until the Prelude is done (M3 took its spot for now).
Prelude will serve as my daily driver. Fresh H22, fresh manual trans, clutch/flywheel, all new bushings, wheel bearings, axles, ball joints, brakes, steering rack... car should be completely mint. Within the next few weeks, it'll be on the road finally after being up on those jack stands for close to 6-7 years now. |

Congrats on the M
Someone should start a Honda thread. Seems like a lot of M3 owners have had modded Hondas somewhere in their lifetime. |

Just a little update nearly 6 years later. Still puts a smile on my face every time I drive it.

F80 and S2k are beautiful. I also have a berlina S2000 and have owned it for 17 years and will never sell it. I've seen a lot of S2000 and F80 owners; it seems to be a thing. I just wish I could have done ED with my M3! Jealous!
