New M3 Vancouver owner!

[tito_gsx]

Picked up my F80 mineral grey F80 last week! Only drove the car once since its on summer tires and the weather has been junk! Totally in love with this car. Previously came from F30 335i and previous to that E90 M3 & 997. Car is stock at the moment, thinking of some OEM plus mods. Any local guys do autocross or trackdays? Would like to hear from the locals...thanks

Great car, Congrats!
Summer tires still drivable on main roads.

Me too, last week, E92 to F82! Not 'M' weather though, probably good for keeping the revs below 5500 lol

Not M weather but ive been driving mine every day. Just get some winters on and you'll be fine.

What's your winter setup?

Btw, I really like the 6 speed manual. Very easy to drive and be smooth. Haven't really done much WOT gear to gear but I'm sure it shift quickly. I wasn't a big fan of the E90 m3 transmission.

I have been driving M in the Alberta winters without issues, I am sure you BC boys will be fine.

Congrats, what packages?

[tito_gsx]

Spec'd with 6 speed manual, carbon roof, premium package and m exhaust! Feel so fortunate to drive it. I was never a believer of the m exhaust from reading and watching videos. However the exhaust is so much better in person the sound is very unique. Not raw sounding like the old M engines that are normally aspirated but it has its own character.

Pirelli Sottozero 3 on the OEM 19" rims.

Mine's AY with ZCP, black leather and premium pkg. I run the Kuhmo Wintercraft with a 19" square set up. Wheels are Riva MX, I use these wheels for three years
When I had the M3, and they worked fine… Plus, I really like the Y spoke design.

+1 on the Sotto's. Enjoying mine on stock 437's.

Welcome to the clan OP, we'll see ya around.

Edit, lots of us e92-f82 converts around here .

Running square setup of 19" Rivas MX on 255/35 Pilot Alpin PA4s. Been VERY helpful during this crazy winter. Got them on just in time before all that snow a month or two ago.

[Habber]

Doing the Montreal weather just fine. Don't really get much snow anymore but it's amazing.
