thanks all. Havent gotten around to getting pics up yet. As I was so busy driving all last night and all today. And also wiring in my new Amp and Subs. The car is dirty, so ill be cleaning it tomorrow and i will post up some pics.

Does anyone know which color wire that comes from the Factory AMP is the REM (Remote Engine Management) wire or the Triger wire. I wired up the amp to the red 14 gauge wire but the amp does not shut down after stopping the car and removing the key. And the subs go.. berrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr real loud. Its the same color wire as in the e90 but i dont remember which one it was.

$992.00 with 0 down 12K 36months


dude this car is absolutley sick. Motor trend was on crack when they gave the Cayman the edge. I drove both because i was either going to buy an M or the cayman. OK maybe the cayman can handle ohhh so barely better... but the power didnt seem like it was there. In the M it feels more alive. The M is just breath taking. I couldnt even begin to tell you, how many looks I get. EVERYone gives me the thumbs up, and says wow. I get very good feedback on the road. But hell owning an M is just a rewarding experience. And the exhuast..

My first impression of the M is... "WOW!" thats all i got to say. The car is amazing.

I will take pictures tomorrow sometime after I give it a nice coat of wax.
you soon find out that Porches will be tagging along side you now on the road, instead of G35s, GTIs, Acuras when you drove the e90.

and you will soon get nods and winks of approval so get used to it.

Congrats!

Sounds awesome! When I put my order in for my 330i it was between that or waiting for the M coupe. I guess I'm glad I went with the 330i because now I'll be more excited to get my M (V8 M3) when the time comes in about a year.

How much does your car MSRP at and did you order it custom built or take one off the dealer lot? If you're paying nearly $1K/month for a $50K M car, I can't even imagine how much the $65K M3 will be. Probably like $1,250/month. Plus my insurance will probably go up to $450/month. I better start making some more money.

I'm probably looking at $850 more per month for the M3 when the time comes all together. Right now I pay right around $1K/month for my 330i and that includes monthly, insurance and gas. So the M3 will be like $1,850.

I ordered mine, took 2.5 months. It came to 53,970. and the dealer would not discount it one penny. I haggled with them for the whole 2 months, and nothing. Fux0rz...

.... just curious, did you get a decent deal for your trade in or did you take a hit?

Why 12k a year? You had a lot of miles on your 330. Is 12k enough?

What are the specs?

Has your gf gotten her car back yet?
