Montego Blue E93 and Dodo Juice + DPE S7

coolcobramatt · 09-23-2012, 07:09 PM

Traded my Alpine White 2010 E93 for the color I've always wanted, 2009 Montego Blue (even got a few thousand back in the deal). It has Nav, Sport, Premium, Cold Weather, Logic7, Sirius, and Comfort Access. 21k miles. Cobb Stage 1 with a K&N filter.

I took a few days to detail it out as I like, starting with Pinnacle Ultimate Swirl Remover, stage 2 Pinnacle Finishing Polish, then stage 3 topped with Dodo Juice Rubbish Boy's Juiced Edition. Nearly wore my Porter Cable 7424 out in the process.

Wheels are DPE S7 19x8.5 front/235-35-19 and 19x10 rear/275-30-19 (Nitto Motivo).

Hard to see the depth and shine via my cheap Sony 5 mp camera so forgive the amateur photos. My AW drew alot of compliments but nothing like the MB.

I found a few unique locations, best my little town could offer!

Gotta love that Dodo!

And to prove I don't neglect the engine bay...

Hell I am mechanically retarded, would never be able to get those off and/or back on. I do like the blacked out look though.

Congrats on the beautiful new ride and welcome to the Montego club!!

Danny271 · 09-23-2012, 08:52 PM

Montego is a great color when clean! Congrats on the new ride!

Question, I own a 2008 montego blue E92...and was under the impression that in 2009 they switched from montego blue to lemans blue. Are you sure yours is a 2009?

LACSTER · 09-23-2012, 08:52 PM

Slam that clam!

GChase · 09-23-2012, 09:39 PM

Ew blue. Go Cardinals

Haha seriously though Montego and Le Mans blue are my favorite colors behind metallic black. Glad to see a fellow Thoroughbred here on the forums! Your car looks great.

SoCal BimMn' · 09-23-2012, 09:48 PM

LeMans was given to the E90/E92 if they had the MSport Package. Montego, along with Monaco were options during 2009 also. Deep Sea came out like late 2010.

Always wanted a MB but the deal I found on the '10 AW was too good to pass on. Now I have the car I originally wanted and more $$ in the checking account.

Much thanks! Right after I made these pics, my 10 year old tripped over his scooter in the garage and put a 3 inch scratch right beside the passenger side door handle. I may be putting him up for adoption now.

Gorgeous.

project335i · 09-24-2012, 08:16 AM

Looks good I would really look into getting the msport kit and a mild drop would look 100 times better

Still under warranty so any drop is out of the question right now. No one around here to do the work either. I actually am ok with the ride height coming from a mustang background where it looks like a 4x4 without a drop.

ttribe · 09-24-2012, 12:36 PM

Beautiful color on that E93. Nicely done.

truth · 09-24-2012, 12:42 PM

Looks great OP!
I am very mechanically challenged also, but the reflectors were a piece of cake!!
There is a DIY on this forum you can pull up. It's a cheap mod, but one of the best mods you can in regards to appearance.
I literally took a hair dryer to it for a few minuts and pulled the refecltor right off.
The new ones had double sided tape already there and pressed them on nice and tight and voila! Trust me...easy,easy, easy and youl'll be SO happy you did it.
Cheers!
