SS M3 down by the sea

Colinv6 · 04-22-2016, 03:16 PM

It's not your typical idyllic beach you guys will be used to, but it was a nice sunset and I fancied a good drive.

Damn I love this car!

Thanks! I took loads just going through them now.

Camera was just a 6S but it's got me wanting a proper SLR...

How's the exhaust sounding, better by the day now

It's getting deeper and better sounding each time I drive it mate!

It's rattling on something at exactly 1500 revs though, I need to get it up on a ramp and see if it's a heat shield or something I can push up out of the way!

Nice pics, thanks for posting.

Good to see someone around here has sunshine although the last 2 days were beautiful here across the channel

Very nice! I have a new appreciation for SSII. So much depth and it glows with just the slightest amount of light!

Jockey · 04-23-2016, 05:25 AM

Great! Missing my M3. She will be taking me on plenty of trips to the beach this summer.

It really does.. It's a properly stunning colour on the F8x. My dad had an e92 M3 in Silverstone for 5 years and I can't remember it ever looking as nice and as shimmery as it does on the new models..

In my garage, at home, hooked up to a battery tender for the last 5.5 months.

Yes, unfortunately I'm deployed but I "should" be coming home soon. Unless we get extended.

First shot is money. SS is such a great choice

Let's hope not! You guys do a hell of a job in keeping your country safe and also working to support our military

Just wait till you open up that garage door for an early morning blast
