New M3 CP - Collected

So, finally got chance to put a collection post together.

The 0% deal on the M3 was just too good of an opportunity to miss and given M3 production is stopping and the new M3 not out until 2020, it was time to strike and seal the deal. 

So after various negotiations on new and used cars I ended up with a deal on an M3 CP in San Marino Blue DCT, interior and exterior carbon, forged 666m's, black interior, hud, hk, yadda yadda. 

The car is simply stunning and a boyhood dream come true. 2 years ago I collected a 340i which I felt massively privalaged to have owned, I have been very lucky to have been in a position to move on to an m car, I really do have to pinch my self! anyway - Collection was a bit chaotic after just getting back from holiday the day before, no fault of the dealer so I didn't take any pics but I took a friend of mine out today to get a few pics and here's the results.

The handling of this car is simply astonishing, having had the opportunity to test around some familiar roads and the difference to the 340i is just had dropping, the m just begs for more.

Looks stunning. Are the number plates slightly tinted?
If so they look great.

No, just standard plates. The resolution seems to be really pants on the upload for some reason, I'll see if I can upload some better quality pics.

carbon side blades and mirror caps are first I think

I'd be a bit worried about lowering the car with the splitter, how do you find it?

Low! I wouldn't bother as you have the CP which is stiffer than the standard car, yours looks great.

Bigger balls than me on the map front, I'd go bankrupt if the engine/gearbox went bang.

Steady on chap it's a remap not an attempt to beat Bellof round the ring in a Porsche.
