I'm FINALLY an M3 Owner!

I have been searching for a long time for an M3. Each time I've settled. First time I just couldn't afford one back in 2012 and ended up with a CPO '09 335i that lets face it, no matter what I did to the car it just wasn't in the same category. I sold it and when I went with the whole C63 AMG and Lexus ISF route. After having those I just wasn't satisfied and said I'm going to buy a M3. I know what options I wanted and what I wasn't going to settle for. Initially I wanted a 6spd manual but after test driving a DCT I was sold. It was like the best of both worlds. I plan to take it to a few track days. But I wanted Yas Marina Blue, Silverstone full merino, DCT, executive package, LED and Black M437 wheels. There was a part of me that a wanted Carbon Ceramic brakes but after seeing the replacement cost I said..no thank you. The only thing I settled on was the competition package and sunroof. It seems rare to find one with the all of options I wanted. With the production ending on the F80s I knew time was running out so I grabbed one back in April this year.

Anyway here's a small review of the car. I've already changed the grill to black
and the headlights had a lot of pitting in them so I wetsanded them.

I think YMB M3/M4 is the best looking car for under $70k. Just the perfect combination of aggressiveness and elegance.
