It's a 2011, Alpine White, Fox Red interior, 6MT, Competition package, Electronic Dampening Control, and a bunch of other stuff.

Thing is an absolute nut. Pulls all the way up to it's 8,300 RPM redline.

Very nice! Mileage is **** though. I'd buy one if it weren't for that. Love the M3. Looked at the M4 recently. Holy crap!

What are you talking about?... I've been averaging 14.8 MPG in city driving!

Well, it was listed at $48k, talked it down. That's about what a clean 2010+ M3 sedan goes for nowadays. But the reason why it's higher than normal is due to it's color combo, nearly fully optioned, and it has a third pedal. This car is extremely rare in this configuration. Plus, this car came with an extended third party warranty (good till 2019).

Oh good. The warranty is everything. I'd never own a BMW past the 4 year 50,000 free scheduled maintenance period otherwise.

I'm Ngo... My car is stock other than a recent tint job and license plate LEDs. It's a 2009 touring sport with navi. I traded my 2009 RX8 and I am very happy with my decision. I am researching for an exhaust system/high-flow cats and it is looking like a Stillen or Berk. Also, is there a recommended tuner in our area? I will probably go FI next year.

Also, I will probably paint my headlight's housings satin black. I have not decided on either LED stripe or angel eyes yet. I thought about both but it might be too much IMO. There are several great DIY that I've read so far... Anyone attempted it yet? I have done several on my past vehicles. But it might have to wait for a few more weeks... Six more credits until I graduate I have a capstone project due in a few months so that is taking up most of my time.

CIN, R/T Tuning, AAM for tuning.

180 for headlights unless you actually intend to do them yourself.

Thanks Tigger... what shops around this area are reputable with tuning our cars? I googled it but I'm not getting much positive feedback other than regular mechanic shops around here.

I do plan on doing the headlights myself. I've crafted a few in the past. The process is similar... uninstall, bake, install LEDs, test, spray, bake, reinstall, wire...
