Picked up 09 True Red Speed3

[5-4-fighting]

I just picked up the beast hours ago. So far with 60 miles I love it. Now I have to resist the mods. Anything I should look out for on the 09's? Sold my M3 hours before picking up the Speed3 GT. Looking forward to the wealth of knowledge here.

I hope M3 = Mazda3 and not BMW...

Grats on the car! I have an '08.5 true red and I love it. I'm sure you'll enjoy it thoroughly.

::drool:: Beautiful car. I got to see one in person with a magnaflow exhaust (I think) while autox with a BMW CCA chapter. Any reason to get rid of such a car?

ummmmmm i really hope u had to get rid of it....i would do lots of things to own one of those

congrats. sucks you has to get rid of the M3 even though i not a fan of the E92 M3's. why is it so high in the back?

BMW is giving thosse things away especially the sedans. they are rotting on lots here in orlando

It's just sitting that way in the uneven grass. It really sits lower in the rear than the front. Harsh reality was it was rarely driven and cost me a fortune to own so she had to go. Actually I find the Speed3 more fun to drive.

Wow, take that M3 to the track and you will think the MS3 is asnoozefest. But its good to hear as a M owner, you enjoy the Speed

Congratulations on the new purchase. The M3 looks pretty awesome. Do they really cost that much to own? I guess as they get older, the maintenance is more costly. I hope to own one before I kick the bucket

Guys how much power can this little 4 cyl handle without risk of catastrophe. How would the additional torque steer be dealt with? Where should look for mods, Cobb? CP-E? I'm a newb can't you tell.

Never crossed my mind.

You should try my reach-arounds. They're to die for.

Ok I get it, use the search. I'm trying to be nice why don't you.
Can anyone elaborate on my question regarding mods? Does the car suffer from heat soak in the summer?

I'm trying to be nice why don't you.

Don't believe we've met. The name's Kain, I'm from the innanets.

 

[5-4-fighting]

Kain, are you able to add anything more to this wondrous bantor.

 

[Kain]

Nothing of substantive import, I'm afraid.
