Newcomer to ///M World and Forum

Well i've finally done it! I'm 30 years old and saved all my pennies and ordered an M3. I've been a reader on the forums for some time and since I never had a vehicle, never posted. I have to say all the success stories and encouragement to others in acquiring these cars really inspired and pushed me over the edge with my decision to part with all my hard earned money. I ordered an AW/Black F80 and 513M's with executive package as the sole option, and a 6 speed of course!

The car comes into the Final Processing Center at Brunswick, GA tomorrow yet i've already begun my journey with customization. Starting with whats already in my garage- H&R Sport Springs and a 18f/15r set of spacers. I'm very much looking forward to the new car. As well as becoming more active in the community i've shadowed for some time. Thank you to all the people that have portrayed their success stories, because of said stories I have no doubt this will be one of the best purchases in my life.

The fact that you chose 6MT makes you ok in my book.

I don't recognize DCT people as drivers, or even people for that matter.

Hey there,

first post from me and a nice 'welcome' to you

513M, BSM and 6MT sounds like a really nice choice!
Rare as well (at least over here it would be as most F80s seem to be on 437s and self-shifting)

Thinking about moving from F87 6MT to F80 6MT myself, but that's a different story

I'm getting AW 6sp 513M with NO OPTIONS. I think the car should be like this
It will be rare for sure.

Thank you all for the warm welcome. I'm looking forward to the pick up immensely. However I just learned the carrier was re routed due to the impending hurricane. It now shows entry at Brunswick for 10/11/16. Looks like i'll be impatiently waiting a little longer
