Longtime M owner here! Been on the forums since the early 2000's and I've continuously owned M cars since 2005. To date I've owned:
Silver Gray 2004 E46 M3
Mods - Wheels
Alpine White 2005 E46 M3
Mods - CSL goodies and some go fast stuff
Alpine White 2011 E92 M3 ZCP
Mods - ESS G1 supercharger and M Perf bits
Mint Green F82 M4 ZCP Individual
Mods - See below
And yet this is my first build journal. Why? I feel like this is the first car of mine that has really deserved one. It's a rare Individual and I decided to go all out, right from the start, and I mean right from the start. I've always had a tendency, for whatever reason, to start modding towards the end of my ownership, then sell maybe a year after. Not this time. The color is beyond eye catching, so I felt it needed the performance to back up the appearance, immediately.
