ACM | Austin Yellow M3 Shop Car
We wanted to welcome home the new Austin Yellow on Black 6MT F80 M3 shop car. The previous E92 shop cars are sold and gone so it's time to get on board with the new chassis. We'll update this thread with updates that go on the car. Thanks for checking in!

Awesome! Looking forward to seeing progress with this build. That purple E92 is still one of my favorites

The transmission is pretty good. It feels a little less mechanical compared to my E92 with RE SSK, but very nice regardless. As I've told many, the car feels like a 4-door 1M which was my favorite car I've owned to date. |

I had a 1m and LOVED that son of a bitch. If this is a quasi 4dr 1m I will be ecstatic Any comparisons to the handling and power delivery differences between the two? |

I still think I want to keep my E92 (for good). Then I'd be able to add an M2 which I hope is going to embody what the 1M stood for. Second option would be F80 (actually in AY as well, with 6MT). I'd love to hear your opinion on all these cars Sal, and what you'd personally do. Especially considering you've had all of them, I'd like to hear your feedback.

It's a 1M with 4 doors and almost 100 more hp Power delivery is almost spot on, handling is very very good for a car of it's size, but I'd say it's on par with the smaller 1M. Quote:

On top of that, the E92 is so close to paid off, and it's already modded exactly the way I wanted. It would almost seem crazy to sell it off now (not to mention I'm only the second owner). Congrats on the new car though, looks amazing

Do you guy's know what pic best represents AY out of these four in real life?
? I am in love with the bright gold color of the rear quarter shot! Or is it the more like the faded gold in the last pic? Planning on an Austin F80 with the 18's. |
