Nice! And btw I think the forum now blocks some of the external image sites.

I have an open invitation to anyone who wants to drive a E9X M3. :-) You gotta come halfway across the world though.

Vhishiznet was the first owner, I bought it off him. Then I sold it a a friend in Kandy, who owns a automotive workshop. That's soon before I left the country. I don't know how many times it's changed hands since. But I don't think the one selling it is the third owner, maybe in the books yes. It was one of the fastest Civics back in the day, when we had street drags. Why is AL no allowing me to insert photobucket pics???

I think it belonged to the Car Audio place. Gosh, I've been outta the coutnrly for so long I can'te remeber the name of the place any more. At the end toward Nugegoda on the road that runs through Borella, I think it's Baseline road??

What a strange coincident. Two of my old cars turn up on AL classifieds at the same time. http://www.autolanka.com/ad.asp?ID=120113 http://www.autolanka.com/ad.asp?ID=120151

Look at who turned up on the forums! I still have my doubts about the kudda story. I have the feeling that block ended up in someone elses car....

Yep, that's it. What the hell happened to the leather front seats?

The white one in Kandy with HS plates is my old car. There was also a blue car that was an automatic orginally. Who owns the white one now?

No it wasn't about gas. I don't want to get rock chips or put 600+ miles on that car.

Even if she did none of her qualities run in the family :

The M button is a programmable. I have it set so steering and suspension are on sport mode and throttle response is on power mode, DSC is on M Dynamic mode (lets you have some fun allowing the tail to slide but makes sure you don't crash), DCT in the quickest shift level with manual mode, and the shift lights on . Yeah, had the grills on the car a week after I bought it. I didn't initially include it in the list of mods, but updated the list later to make the list complete. Peri was here in the US early April and he got to ride in it. But left his drivers license back home in SL, otherwise he would have driven it too.

Wifey bought me a bunch of parts for the car for my birthday. Had them installed last week. Here's the mod list, Active Autowerke Signature exhaust BMW Performance carbon fiber splitters, spoiler and mirror covers BMW Performance black grill IND painted reflector H&R Sport springs Macht Schnell spacers BMW M3 GTS wheels And pics

I doubt the service intervals are at 30k, more like every 10k miles. And yes the RFTs are repairable (though not recommended by the manufacturer) if the side wall is not broken.

If you're traveling to the US, don't bother with the international license. The US allows visitors to drive on their home country's driver's license and long as it's in English.

Get the bimmer. But hey it's been 5 years since I last owned a car in SL ..

Damn you! I'm jealous. How much did the package cost?

Don't buy it, if you're having second thoughts.

BBS I think.

Hot! Good luck with the sale Darin! BTW what's the yellow car in the background, is that a NSX?

I was making fun of the fact that you identified it as a "3 series" LOL, not the comment about the run flats. Does the newer 3 series over there come with runflats? Runflats are the one thing I hate about BMWs. Everytime I get a survery from BMW USA, I make a point to put that down as a complaint. Anyways they don't trust runflats enough to put them on any of the M cars. They just give you a tire repair kit instead, still no spare tire.

US safety regulations require the fugly bumper reflectors (they are not lights), a lot of folks swap them out for body colored pieces. I had my mind set on a coupe this time, as the wife now has a a family car. But after going to see this car in person, I changed my mind. The sedan is quite rare, because only a few were ordered, and overall has a better presence on the road. It is much more practical, weighs only 20lbs more. Wheels lengths and all other dimensions are identical.

Does it really work?

WTF dude, that's the worst insult. LOL . M cars don't come with run flats

Already swapped out the chrome grille for a gloss black BMW performance grille. Mods to come: Tint/ BMW performance carbon fiber front splitters/ Carbon fiber spoiler/ Exhaust Two more shots
