Finally got one! Yas Marina F80 in Bunbury WA
Hi guys, long time stalker, first time owner.
Finally managed to get everything lined up to allow me to purchase my dream car. A YMB F80 M3, picked this beauty up from a great seller in Qld, bone stock, immaculate condition, low KM, FSH and BMW Service inclusive. She should be arriving this week after coming across on the slowest transport known to man. Will be a garage rival to my Wife's A45 AMG. Will get some mild cosmetic mods with some CF then some suspension and upgraded tyres as it will see the track in club events etc, as well as lots of spirited driving around the great roads not far from me.

Nice car! Awesome work getting what you wanted.
My advice if it's bone stock and a few years old would ask the dealer to do a full iStep update. It improved the car in every way for mine from suspension to steering and power delivery. A lot of software improvements went into these cars over the years. |

Congrats! I had a A45 before my M3 Comp, lets just say they are completely different beasts! You might need to get some sticky tyres if you wanna get a good launch on the A45 though! Can't compare on the launch off the lights

Thanks guys!
Yeah the A45 is a little go kart and rockets out of corners. Plenty quick enough for the wife and a absolute hoot to drive. Couple of rolling runs today and the M3 just sprints away |

Good Work! Top tip - if you're not going to PPF the whole car, at least do the leading edge of the rear guards and back of the sills- stone chip city
