Got rid of a 2016 but I'm back!

ngs · 08-07-2018, 10:27 AM

Lease transferred my 2016 and was looking at switching cars but found a KILLER deal on a 2015 fully loaded w/ CCB and 9000 miles, extended warranty and CLOTH SEATS which I was really look for! Had the car shipped to CA safe and sound. Guess I am here to stay.

Bluesummer · 08-07-2018, 10:29 AM

cloth seats, CCB and moonroof. What a combo.

Nice! Congrats!

That's one thing about the M3/M4 that still amazes me and really speaks about just how good this car is.

There are a lot of people that end up getting back into the same car after selling or finish leasing one. I've had some great cars in the past but none that would make me want to get the same car right afterwards. For someone to do that you must really really like it and I see this time and time again with the M3/M4 owners.

I hope OP got a full PPI, and this is not one of those rare Performance Center spec with the moonroof option.

Cloth seats + CCBs + killer deal usually translates to this.

I would totally rock this car. I did PCD in SC and loved the cloth. The CCBs look great. Nice find !

Welcome back

Nice!
after owning 3 M3/M4's, I also wanted to try something new - went ahead and got a 2018 RS3. Got bored of it after 6 months, so came straight back to M3 lol

It's quick and handles nicely too, but two things bothered me: AWD and interior.
Obviously AWD is a smarter choice in the area I live in (Montreal, Canada so we get shit ton of snow), but I was missing RWD.
Interior-wise, what a disaster. It's a 70k + tax car in Canada, but there is no option of having power seats, dash and center console feel cheap and plastic-y, and there just isn't much going on interior-wise. Also, made me realize how good BMW iDrive & Nav system are. However, virtual cockpit was a nice thing to have.

Overall, I wouldn't mind having RS3 as a daily driver if I can own another fun, RWD car like an M3/M4.
