In Ft Worth as well... Just ordered an M3 from Brian at autobahn last week and (not so) patiently awaiting for it to arrive...

So what local groups are there??

Congrats. Details on it? Mod plans?

hanzie411 · 02-21-2017, 08:31 AM

Thanks. Bought it slightly used. 2016 White M3 Base. Still learning about it as this is my first BMW ever.

Had 12k miles on it when i bought it. Previous owner has already put:
swift springs
carbon fiber roof, trunk spoiler, mirrors, front valance pieces, black front lip spoiler, carbon rear diffuser around the exhaust, and black exhaust tips?
It also has wheel spacers on it.

Took it to Classic BMW and refreshed the maintenance on the car, and service guy was super cool and had it put on the lift so we could inspect to see what if anything else was done to the car. Looks like the rest is stock.

There really isnt much else i want to do to the car, maybe some Dinan performance parts later on, like exhaust, downpipe, the usual bolt ons, and a tune.

Right now, only thing I have done so far is coding some features that are must haves:

easy driver seat
turn off amber side markers
auto fold/unfold mirros
illuminate door handle lights when in reverse
enable enhanced bluetooth
unlock all doors on engine off
turn on brake flash on hard brake

Does it have 18s with a manual? What dealership did you buy it from?

hanzie411 · 02-21-2017, 08:48 AM

yes it has 18s with a manual. Patt Lobb Toyota in Mckinney. Let me guess, you know the guy who had it before?

hanzie411 · 02-21-2017, 08:57 AM

Yeah he's a good friend. He's drive like a grandma and doesn't even know how to drive aggressively. It was well taken care of. His name is Syed. I'll have him respond on here.

hanzie411 · 02-21-2017, 09:33 AM

whew! Man, i was sweating over here worried you were going to tell me something bad. I'd be curious to know if anything else was done to the car just so i have a better idea on what i'm working with.

Pm sent

DarksideM4 · 02-21-2017, 05:09 PM

Oh someone picked up Syed's M3 locally, it was very babied during it's life. Time for DPs and JB4 to turn it into a true monster

MHOW996 · 02-27-2017, 06:23 AM

Looks like I'll be joining y'all. Moving to Irving area in late March / early April from California. Will need to learn about best Dealer for service, shops for coding/mods. Any advice would be appreciated.

DarksideM4 · 02-27-2017, 09:50 PM

Well sorry you have to move from Cali to TX, the scenery will be a tough change but we have 93 oct

. Hit up myself on IG DM same name as the forum or Austin @bmw_mg_F82 on IG , we both are connected to well to people in Dallas.

hanzie411 · 02-28-2017, 09:51 AM

you guys got any recommendations as far as mods go? Ive been searching and reading around the forums....getting some good ideas. The JB4 seems to be 50/50 as far as performing well or not. Saw some of you guys sprung out to get the maxpsi intake, but man that's pricy for a CAI. Wondering if its really worth it or not.

DarksideM4 · 02-28-2017, 09:58 AM

Well my personal experience with JB4 and front mount intakes has been great..25k miles with JB4 and no issues run map 2 on E30 daily and for fun rallies etc. switch to map 7 race gas. TBH most of the JB4 issues are people not hooking it up right or not understanding the maps correctly. I might be at C&C this Sat. if you want to stop by but heading out to breakfast with some of the guys by 8am.

Hi everyone. New to the area. Can anyone recommend a good shop? I live in Uptown Dallas, but don't mind driving. I need charge pipes installed and will need new rear tires soon.

Also, any recommendations for track days? And possibly a mod-friendly dealer for service?Thanks in advance!
