Finally Joining The Club

BGxNYC · 12-02-2020, 04:06 PM

Well after a good 5+ years of lusting after these cars, I'm finally joining the F80 club. I'll be picking up an '18 BSM ZCP F80 on Saturday. Thank God work is busy because I cant sit still thinking about this bad boy.

Car has 33k miles and is CPO'd with warranty thru 12/22. Clean title and carfax, 1 owner. Has pretty much everything except CCBs and full leather.

I'm currently in an '18 Audi A4 lease which goes back end of February. Once I saw BMWFS is offering 1.49% financing @ 60 months on '17 and '18 CPOs along with 3 months of deferred payments, it lined up too perfect with my lease situation and I had to jump on this. Ideally I wanted to grab a more rare color like Tanzanite Blue or Nardo Gray but the premium on these colors put what I've been seeing pop up a little out of my preferred price range. Looking forward to the crazy upgrade in power and performance though.

I'll definitely get some pics up once I pick her up. First plan is to ceramic coat and clear bra her hopefully sometime next week/weekend.

No doubt; thanks! Oh I never let it get dirty... lol.

M3 It's just next level; again congratulations!

The entire front, the rocker panel and some of the rear all covered in PPF. A must if you're a hwy assassin like myself 🦅

Definitely post up that 18M!

She's home in one piece. Weather was a lil scary as it was sleeting when I picked her up in Connecticut and it has MPSS' on but made it back in one piece. My face hurts from cheesing for the last 2 days. Taking her tomorrow to setup an appointment to ceramic coat and clear bra. Cant wait for the spring/summer to have some real fun.

CT_M3 · 12-06-2020, 07:15 PM

Car looks great!

bsmf8x · 12-06-2020, 07:17 PM

Goddamn, wouldn't dish out another 15k+ for a 2018 for those new headlights and shadow 666m's but I want them so bad lol.

Pre LCI is a good bang for buck car but these 2018's look so goddamn good

BMRSEB · 12-06-2020, 07:20 PM

Congrats on the ride! I’m jealous of the headlights.. I have “old school” xenons..

Mojoman · 12-06-2020, 07:50 PM

Congratulations! The car looks great. Enjoy!

Congratulations!!!

Car is Fire 🔥

PSA

When it gets below 40 degrees those tires have very little grip.

I'm running Continental DWS 06 on Factory 18's

Fantastic in freezing temperatures, snow and rain.

Again congratulations

Thanks bro. Yea thats something I've heard about and has definitely scared me. I've already felt the loss of traction multiple times including turning out of my local hand wash right after i had her washed which was an experience lol.

I'll 100% be getting a winter set and will keep those Continentals in mind. Most likely I'll wait til next winter and just use the Audi on these really cold days until it goes back end of Feb.

What's the thought process on going with 18s vs 19s for a winter setup?

2011ninja · 12-07-2020, 07:56 AM

Good move!

18's smoother ride

APEX 18 inch or if you can find used BMW 18's the oem.

Some do a square set up (no stager)

I'm running the Continental all year; their fantastic!!!

I don't track the car; for me even aggressive street driving they are good.
