Your right Totti. Its wierd when people pick up thier cars, they don't seem to have the time come on here much anymore!!! lol. I can't wait for that to happen to me.... Still sitting in Port Kembla doing stuff all in no mans land, should be going onto a boat to brisbane tomorrow but no doubt for some strange reason it will probably stay there!!! The new car god's have got something against me at the moment.

OMG OMG OMG.... I'm back... need to take a break.... almost out of fuel.... damn Gilbo... this car is addictive.... Totti... totally understand why you weren't giving me any of your time when your delivery took place.... Far Friggin out... the car is fantastic

zenderm3 wait until you have the 2000K service. It turns into a monster. The best part is after 7000 revs! I finally got to see the shift lights work

cargeek · 12-06-2009, 05:37 AM

sorry Totti I hijacked your thread.

I don't know whether this is true or not but when I was told the M3 is limited to 250kW until 2000km where upon the ECU remaps and brings on the full 309kW! I was told that by the head SA here. Admittedly, you tend to baby it to 2000km and hammer it after that! Whatever the case, the first 2000km is very hard to handle with restraint!

MikeVictor · 12-06-2009, 07:34 PM

I'd love to get my hands on an M3.

I was thinking to myself that I'd be hard pressed to fit it in my garage as my 135 just gets in, however I realised if I could afford the M3 I should be able to afford to buy a new house with a bigger garage for it!

this is correct. although it is done by dealer.

zenderm3 · 12-06-2009, 09:16 PM

Honestly... I don't feel worthy... I feel like a bloody kid in a candy store.. where all you need to do is push the foot pedal for more lollies!

AMK.... mate how beautiful is Space Grey?!? My mum has now changed her order from Bluewater 320d to Space Grey... and now dad wants a BMW with Space Grey... quite embarassing... dad asked why he should have to miss out! haha

Glad you love the Space Grey....I love it too! I reckon the best is when the car is clean and the sky is slightly overcast. The car literally glows!

I saw a Space Grey 135i at the dealer today.....awesome! But then I also saw a black 06 M5 with 19,000 on the clock for $139k drive-away.....urk....22 to 25L/100km around town made me think twice!!!

The mirrors fold in. It will fit.

They didn't mention that. After the service the car felt the same at low revs but its awesome when you press down the accelerator
