the one on culver was E90, not E92, it wasnt an asian person either.

yah dude for sure. u wanna do a photoshoot on sunday??? im gonna get detailed and tinted over the weekend. i really wanna do a proper shoot. OC Kid is interested, Jtecnik is interested too... hopefully i'll get OC 335i and other guys interested. i'll pm u my # right away

[Big Windy]

not reporting an m3 sighting here, because i'm in iraq and the only shit i see are explosions...anyhow, i am coming home for R&R in about 45 days and if you guys are doing a photoshoot anytime around june, i would love to drop in...i know that is kinda far out to plan. but i'm bored as hell here right now and i live between barranca and irvine center dr.

[///Mantis]

how are you bored with all those explosions??? man takes a lot to entertain you

[Big Windy]

well, right now nothing is exploding and i am just sitting in my tent on a 28.8kbps internet connection. suicide comes to mind...:suicide:

[///Mantis]

as long as suicide bomber doesnt come to tent u should be alright. remove all sharp objects.

[Big Windy]

hahaha. back to the m3, was it a bitch to install your GP thunders like fifth was saying? also, what do you think about M audio? i am debating getting a stripper, but not being able to get the enhanced audio is really pissing me off.

[///Mantis]

hahaha. back to the m3, was it a bitch to install your GP thunders like fifth was saying? also, what do you think about M audio? i am debating getting a stripper, but not being able to get the enhanced audio is really pissing me off.

umm... GP thunders are pain, but nothing to worry about. just gotta stick ur fingers there for like 10 minutes u'll get it. we've all done it before, not a biggy. it's just the left side is significantly harder than right side.

do not ditch technology package no matter what. do not ditch EDC and M drive man. dont.

M audio is better than Logic7 on 335's. it's a good system, just expensive as fuck though :cry:
how come u cant get enhanced?

[Big Windy]

well, you obviously know that you can't get enhanced without nav. i was debating whether to skip tech. and prem. package all together and just say screw it. i was definitely going to get EDC though. the biggest drawback to no tech package is obviously the M drive and MDM. I know you are right, but i'm just being a cheapass. haha. I didn't have the L7 on my 335i, but I'm wondering if i'm really going to notice the difference for 1900 bucks.

[///Mantis]

i tell u what bro. from all options i got i would ditch all except tech package. nothing too crazy about premium, pdc, heated seats are whatevers. tech package i wouldnt ditch myself...

[Big Windy]

yeah, i'll bet that comfort access is nice too. are you happy with your 18"s...they have really grown on me. i am going jet black.

i had black interior in my 335i, so i was trying to steer away from that. i know that the jet black will swirl like a bitch. oh well. i have nothing else but to take care of the damn thing. i was also considering speed cloth. who knows....i have about 30 days to decide before there won't be anymore allocations.

[dbacon]

I'm in Newport for the weekend. Just saw a JB E92 heading southbound on PCH at about 7:15pm. It turned into some complex on the coast side just north of Newport Coast Dr. It had plates so it's been around awhile.

at spectrum's parking structure near D&B/edwards on 4th floor i saw a IB 100% stock M3 with license plates. i moved my car from 3rd to 4th and parked next to him hoping he'd post or see the m3post.com decal or something... idk if he/she did....

[dooma350]

This was last week, but I had a chance encounter with a AW M3 Coupe on the 405N. I was headed north near Fountain Valley when the M3 coupe merged on. It had a CSL style trunk, dark tint, JWLevi stickers and rims.
Turns out to be Badfish!
Ran side by side with Badfish for a few minutes checking out his car before taking off. Pretty cool that the first M3 I see on the road is a fellow forum member!

Saw a graphite metallic coupe in Menlo Park, CA today

[///Mantis]

just saw a space gray E92 M3 on jamboree around 10:30 pm. waved and flashed and shit but driver was no communicacion FTL

[knifegun]

Funny thing is my dealer told me that as they were entering my BMW Assist information into the computer, they found someone else on my same street that bought a white E92 M3 two weeks after mine. I have been driving really slow checking in people's driveways and garages and cannot find the other M3 on my road. I live in Northern CA where I think I have seen more Ferrari 599s (3) than I have seen E9x M3s (1).

That was me :D. This is my second M3. I've been driving an Acura RDX (wife's now) between leases and it was killing me not having a sports car.

I hear you about the wait. 1 year since I dropped my E46 off. I flew out to Vegas to pick this one up because I couldn't wait another 3 months for a DCT order.

[///Mantis]

i didnt see a M3 but someone stopped me on traffic light last night and asked me if i whooped a porsche earlier in newport beach. it had to be AW. i said no it wasnt me but the guy thought i was being humble hahah

I was giving you a thumbup actually. Maybe you were driving too fast to notice that a thumbup with a HAPPY FACE :D is a weird look.

If you are not doing anything this Saturday, see you at the AutoX in Auto Club Speedway from 9am-5pm. I am taking the M3 and 335i. My uncle will be there with his M6 and M Coupe.

Funny thing is my wife saw you once and thought it was me on the freeway. She came home and asked me why I was trying to ditch her on the freeway, haha.

[Hubert@SupremePower]

the other was black, he stared me. on von karman

[chili cheese]

Still haven't seen any on the road other than a couple at Cars & Coffee several weeks ago. Where are you guys, I'm in South Orange County? Maybe I need to drive more?

[F000007]

Very clean SG/FR e90 m3 on 2nd Street in Downtown Santa Monica around 5:15pm.

Thanks man, it was mine, I guess you were on foot? Haven't seen your car yet. Only two places I saw an M3 are Beverly Hills and west Santa Monica blvd. - both black E92s.

[///Mantis]

E93 M3 at the Sport club on MacArthur/Main. it had some chrome 5 spoke rims. it was a black one.

[OG_M3]

alpine white e92 m3 on the 55 south at 10:50pm.

looked brand new with crevier dealer plates on it still.

[Kadarin]

Hey, I finally saw another one... Right near BMW of Mountain View on El Camino (northbound) at 237 (Grant Rd.) in Mtn. View, Thursday night at around 9pm-ish. Space Gray coupe, as was mine. We were both waiting at the same light, but I couldn't catch up because I was turning shortly after the light.

[///Mantis]

SSII E90 on culver turning left onto irvine blvd. we exchanged thumbs up. very nice and clean car. i want SSII now

[bonkersM3]

SSII E90 on culver turning left onto irvine blvd. we exchanged thumbs up. very nice and clean car. i want SSII now

That was me...yours is the first other E9* M3 I have actually seen on the road....nice ride :cool!:

[badfish]

Saw a silver M3 sedan at Jumbo's Clown Room/Kruang Tedd restaurant in Hollywood, CA.

[Kadarin]

Saw two, almost at the same time Sunday afternoon. 4:40pm, I was on 35, turning onto 92 heading eastbound back toward the bay, when a Space Gray e92 (identical to mine) drove past. I waved, but it didn't look like you saw me. I was 7 or 8 cars behind you and you stayed on 92 when I turned right to go south on 280.

4:43pm, coming the other way (westbound on 92, heading toward Half Moon Bay) was an IB e92. We made eye contact, but didn't have time to wave.

Anyone here? Looks like Sunday was a nice day for a drive. I also saw a beautiful red '67 Corvette 427 convertible on southbound 280.

[badfish]

Spotted a Melbourne red E92 with Jersey plates on the 101 Northbound tonight between 10 & 11 PM.

[///Mantis]

That was me...yours is the first other E9* M3 I have actually seen on the road....nice ride :cool!:

FINALLY someone on here :D

[chili cheese]

Finally saw one on the road last night around 7:30pm and it looked sick!

5 south on-ramp at Oso Pkwy, E93, Jet Black or Jerez (it was getting dark), 19's? and I think maybe bamboo interior.

[Ryan(e92)]

Thats me. I dont remember seeing you at 1 (i was prolly on the phone) but I think I saw u at 5pm at Jamboree and PCH. I live off Jamboree and PCH and I work off of Jamboree and main. Basically if you drive down Jamboree you will see me eventually.

[///Mantis]

i saw u on main heading towards von karman from jamboree.

[Ryan(e92)]

Thanks. Ive always had those wheels.

[///Mantis]

they're awesome. next time ima turn around and chase u to say hi :evil:

[Ryan(e92)]

Thanks. They really could not have turned out better. Perfect match. It almost makes up for the million horrible decisions Ive made buying wheels.

[///Mantis]

haha yah i hear you. is ur car dropped? stance looked awesome. maybe coz u had 20" rims?

[Ryan(e92)]

wrong and wrong. No drop and they're 19's.

[nlpamg]

AW E92 with Nitto Decals going East on Pico at around 6:20pm yesterday.

[///Mantis]

wrong and wrong. No drop and they're 19's.

wow looks really good tho... u plan on dropping?

[Ryan(e92)]

no springs are ghetto

[///Mantis]

well they sure make the ride feel like it for sure

[Ryan(e92)]

It drives perfectly right now. Why would I change it?

[///Mantis]

haha my point too... i was afraid it'd look off with aftermarket wheels. but after seeing urs i'll go for it soon

[Ryan(e92)]

Be a baller and get forged magnesium RE's from BBS. Those rims are sick. You had the right idea going with BBS but with the insane fender flare on the front a lip makes it look like a 16".

[///Mantis]

Saw a IB E92 coupe with matte black grills in Irvine (Oak Creek) this morning.Looked nice

[SupremeDTM]

saw black e92 with 18s n a m3 license plate frame in a parking lot in newport.

[PencilGeek]

Un fricking believable. After owning my own E92 M3 since April, and knowing that 5 of these cars are owned by employees where I work, until today, I still hadn't actually seen an E9x M3 on the road outside of a car show or meet.

Today, driving home from MFest, I spotted a black E92 M3 on I-5 in the central valley, near highway 198 -- Harris Ranch exit.

Finally after 5 months, I saw one.

[rickc]

JB e90 m3 in WalMart parking lot (Fallbrook/Victory) early afternoon. Dude WTF were you thinking parking there, shopping carts/idiots everywhere?!?! Nice car though.

[dooma350]

2 JB M3 coupes minutes apart @ Irvine Oak Creek shopping center. Was side by side at the Jeffrey intersection with one of them that was pretty sweet.

[ferrari355fi]

Sorry for such a late spot, but I just remembered it.

Black M3 Sedan with 18" rims and I think it had M-DCT in or near Palos Verdes Estates around August 15. Anyone here?

And like 5 or 6 E92 M3's in and around Beverly Hills.

[Interlude]

AW E92 M3 around 3PM on 5N (burbank/glendale area) with "3SETPWR" plates.

[McLuVan]

5:50ish - Gray M3 making left onto Jamboree from El Camino Real.

3 in one day, im a hater!

[///Mantis]

damn dude!!!

i was on jamboree heading towards 405 at 5, definitely not 5:40 tho

[Ryan(e92)]

Saw a black m3 with tinted tailights and effed up suspension on Jamboree and main just before 10 am. Had exhaust too.

[asaulo1]

okay... i guess I just got flamed from posting this on the general forum :( anyway, saw a SSII E92 coupe on Rye canyon road during lunch... might be magicmtndan....

[Jammin Jason]

Hey man, yeah, hope I'll be able to say hi next time I get to see your car. It's a wonder I haven't seen either you or rickc around town at all since I tend to hang around the promenade when I'm not busy. :thumbsup:

That's funny... I was on 2nd street in Santa Monica earlier today. We need to set up a mini-meet for the "Westsiders."

[chompino]

That's funny... I was on 2nd street in Santa Monica earlier today. We need to set up a mini-meet for the "Westsiders."

Yeah, we should seriously plan a small meet or something. I live right by the promenade, so I'm surprised I don't see you guys more often. lol.

[rickc]

I'm at Barney's like everyday (weekdays) for Happy Hour, come by sometime.

[F000007]

Yeah, we should seriously plan a small meet or something. I live right by the promenade, so I'm surprised I don't see you guys more often. lol.

Agreed, we could maybe meet mid-week when there are less people coming to the promenade from other areas, it gets really crazy on the streets for the weekend, also the parking lots are filled to capacity, takes a half hour to park. :D

Oh yeah, and I forgot to mention, I just parked my car on 2nd and went on to meet my bro on 3rd when I spotted a fuss being made around a restaurant on SM blvd between the streets, I was in a hurry and kind of pushing people around to get to where I wanted to be and then I looked over and saw Paris Hilton talking some of her usual BS on the sidewalk and that's why everyone was gathering around. Just thought it was hilarious to see such stupidity. :lol:

Yeah I also saw Paris Hilton in SM earlier today.. Tons of Paparazzi taking pics of her behind the wheel of her Blue Bentley Continental GT Vert outside some restaurant on SM Blvd between 2nd and 3rd. Drove right past her and revved the engine, made her look.

haha, would have done that if I was in my car, have to say though I would freak out to have all those insane paps around my car, if someone hit my vehicle I would go insane, would be hard not to beat him up. :D

[bjkim88]

What foolishness from me, I stand corrected.

[chompino]

I'm at Barney's like everyday (weekdays) for Happy Hour, come by sometime.

Haha, me too! I was actually there on thursday night.

[F000007]

Hey, I was driving on West Pico towards SM and was about to make a right turn when I saw an Alpine E92 in my rearview mirror, decided to continue straight for a couple more blocks so I can give the guy a chance to pass me buy and say hi. He did and we both managed to give a thumbs-up to each other, I had to take my turn afterwards but I hope it was finally one of you guys, I suppose it could have been Rick? Anyways, let me know if I'm right about this. :thumbsup:

[rickc]

^^^ wasn't me man, went to fashion district downtown, l.a. with my gf in her car.

Damn, can't believe it, have to say though that I had my reservations since I saw the car still had the dealer sticker on with no plates so I immediately thought it's a pretty slim chance cause both of you have had your M for a while. As far as taking a whole hour to get from SM to Sepulveda I know what you're talkin about, the traffic is getting insaner by the day.

PM me.. sorry I wish I could've chatted longer but my Pops was in the passenger seat waiting... beautiful car BTW!

[bjkim88]

Or in that general area, maybe?

AW Coupe in Fullerton, and Interlagos blue sedan on the 57 South going towards Fullerton.

Looked EXACTLY the same as PiNG1434's, except the other dude looked like he had tint all over. PiNG1434's got a lookalike out there.
