Mike_S Report post Posted January 6, 2010 Bought a E92 M3 Edition in Monte Carlo blue from my dealer yesterday. Car will arrive at dealership tomorrow or day after. I should be able to take delivery on the weekend after the PDI hopefully. It's quite special here as BMW South Africa has only brought in 20 Edition M3's. 10 in Dakar Yellow and 10 in Monte Carlo blue. Will post pics when it arrives!

Mike_S Report post Posted January 7, 2010 Thanks guys - I might pop into the dealership to have a look while they perform the PDI. Will take some pics if I do! I'm also adding a CF Vorsteiner front diffuser and a CF Hamann rear diffuser - I think it will look insane once those two mods are added. Congrats! Sounds like you may run out of garage space at this rate... Too late at present, I am 6 garages short. I am temporarily parking some in the basement of my office until the new house is finished.

Mike_S Report post Posted January 7, 2010 Congrats! I demand a group shot of ALL of your whips! Keep it up Thanks. That will be a bit difficult as they are spread out over a few of the homes. I will be moving them all into the main residence (still under construction) in about 18 months. Will gladly take photos once that has taken place.

Looking forward to see the new M3 Thanks Lambomad, I wouldn't say it's the best, but it's good enough for me It is amazing but definitely not the best. Prices in South Africa are crazy though so huge respect for Mike. Tell me about it, I could trade the LP640 and the F430 for the same price what you pay for a Veyron in the States Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lambo91 Report post Posted January 11, 2010 We could all borrow his cars and have a run of Mike's cars. awesome idea.. I'm also adding a CF Vorsteiner front diffuser and a CF Hamann rear diffuser - I think it will look insane once those two mods are added. It will look SICK Mike_S! Vorsteiner parts looks very good on Bmws..Congrats on your new Bmw. I will be moving them all into the main residence (still under construction) in about 18 months. Will gladly take photos once that has taken place. Tell me about it, I could trade the LP640 and the F430 for the same price what you pay for a Veyron in the States The Veyron cost about 4-5 LP640s over here..lol and its not even legal to be on the roads even if you afford to pay for it since its LHD. btw the Monte Carlo Blue looks sick!! I've never seen or heard of that color on a Bmw before..but i do know that theres a darker blue for the M3s which i've seen some running around on the streets..White color is the most common color for the E92 M3s here..and i can't believe theres no white or black over there in your country!

IbnRushd Report post Posted January 11, 2010 Congratulations!! If you don't mind me asking, how much garage space has been allocated with your new home? You mentioned you're about six short or so? Do you have any other cars in mind to add to your shopping spree? Can't wait to see your new house and full collection! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
