Finally after 11 Years

TT3 iN NyC · 01-27-2019, 12:26 AM

Hi everyone,

After driving an e92 335i for 11 years, I've finally got my hands on a CS! Timing was perfect, the day before I was to pick up a fully loaded ZCP, a friend of mine came across a CS and sent me the dealer info and next thing you know.... CS in my possession!

The M3 is a car I've always wanted from my young teen years, since laying eyes on the '01 e46 M3, I knew I had to get one eventually.

Bought my very first BMW in 2008, an e92 335i. It was no M3 but it did the job in terms of power with the twin turbo engine. Some minor power and cosmetic modifications, it held me down for quite some time.

After 11 years, it was time to upgrade. Didn't think the upgrade would be a CS but low and behold, here I am. This thing is simply amazing, in every aspect.

Glad to be part of the ///M community. Below are some picture. Enjoy! - Her name is Pearl!
