Phoenix Yellow E46 M3

Eisenheim · 10-28-2012, 07:35 PM

Hallo! New to the forums here. Just moved from the VW\AUDI scene and into the very nice world of BMW. Just bought a slightly abused M3 (from some tool that should never drive again). Its forcing me to fix some minor issues. So far I've just replaced the wheels and the springs, and during the process found out he blew the two front struts. ...The nav unit had been stolen out of it, so its going to be fun fixing the harness and finding a new one! Bumper sag....the dreaded sag. Replaced the muffler, and the hangars. Minor details....coming from my Mk4 Gti VR6, with the dogbone mount constantly stripping the trans mount, I'm getting use to the maintenance. Oh well, all the more to make me love this beautiful machine!

Haha naw man. I was kinda put off by the colour too. Then, after seeing it for about an hour I fell in love with it. Kept imagining it blacked out, and she just got sexier and sexier.
