New M3 owner

daveyM3 · 09-22-2009, 07:43 AM

Not brand new, but new to me

Car is Sept. 07 with only 9500 miles on the clock. Traded my 07 Sprint Blue Audi S3 in for it. The Audi was a great wee car but the M3 is a different beastie entirely! Comes with a great spec list including, EDC, Logic 7, DAB, Cd changer, Bluetooth, Heated Seats and loads of other stuff I could'nt be bothered typing. Anyway Hello everyone and here's a few pics:

Edit: Cant get pics to work. Tried both uploading in the post and Photobucket urls. Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong?

Nice purchase!

Photobucket photos have four links at the bottom - copy and pasted the ones surrounded by [IMG]...[/IMG]

Thanks 335diesel! Photos now added.

neo871 · 09-22-2009, 07:56 AM

Congrats! 5th pic is really nice....any interior shots?

Em135eye · 09-22-2009, 07:59 AM

Blimey - they are flipping good for new car snaps - I usually just run around and take a few cr4ppy shots.

Take it that's Ireland? Looks lovely too.

Lovely looking M3. A car that red deffo works with.

Yes it's Ireland mate. It's a local mountain and forest drive which is about 3 miles from where I live. Photos turned out really well considering I was only using a cheapo point and click camera.

Strangely enough Melbourne Red was way down on my list of colour choices purely because most of the photos I'd seen of it did'nt do it any justice. It looks SO much better in real life and I'm really glad I've gone for it now rather than my original choice of Alpine White.

Mmm, I think I want an M3!!!

Lovely motor and welcome to the forum.

Red looks good for a change

Penyfan1960 · 09-22-2009, 11:35 AM

It's an outstanding colour and with those four exhaust pipes it's doing a ton standing still!

Hotcoupe · 09-22-2009, 11:44 AM

Stunning car Davey, arguably the best colour for the M3
