I did the trade, new car content!

LULWUT? That's the fuel guage, it doesn't stay in that position for long in an M3

yeah, goes up when you turn the ignition on!

Do Want.

Whats the full options list ?

Options as follows

Novillo leather black
Carbon leather trim
Technology package
Premium package
Nav
HD and Sirius radio
Keyless entry and start
3 way adjustable dampers (electronic)
Parking sensors
Auto dimming mirrors
DCT 7 speed dual clutch transmission

There's a few more things but I'd need to get the spec sheet out. That's mostly it though

Had forgotten the US gets option packages.

Stuff like keyless entry and power folding mirrors rarely gets spec'd on its own in the UK, but when it comes as a pack which offers a saving, people seem more keen in the US to buy it.

Very nice.

A friend of mine recently swapped his 3rd 911 for an Alpine(?) edition M3 with all the extra's. He also got an amazing deal, something like £12-15k of list price.

Quite a lot of UK E92's have electric folding mirrors specified, but Comfort Access is pretty rare.

Loving the 'power' button, what does it do? Sharpen up the throttle responce? I think it should fire up some rockets hidden behind the number plate

I've found my new exhaust.

This one is due to be available for sale any time now and is electronically valved so it has a quiet and a loud mode.

Have a listen!

Loud :

Quiet :

How much the exhaust?

 

[ScoobyDoo69]

O MY!

Loud sounds fantastic!!

 

[[ui]ICEMAN]

How much the exhaust?

Not 100% sure yet but they're telling me it'll be about half the price of the Kreissigg or Akro system so somewhere around $2500-3000 I'd expect. Not cheap so I may have to choose between HRE's OR the exhaust rather than both. The exhaust is significantly cheaper than a set of HRE's however, about $3k less.

I really wish the UK would allow no front plates (they do on bikes, so why not on cars? ).

But then they would have to turn all the average speed cameras to point the other way!

I would wait till you get bored with the car, then do the upgrades, gives it a new lease of life.

Very sound advice but I'm going to have a hard time resisting that exhaust note....

Im telling you wait till you are bored, especially as you intend keeping it.

Im having mine remapped and a set of speed alloys next month because im bored now and nothing else floats my boat, il have a 2010 model next then a Mulsanne but till then its only upgrades that renew the interest.

I drove the new model recently too, they've made some serious improvements. They took all the best bits of the speed/supersport and put them into the standard GT.

LED lights and a Transformers steering wheel, i had one for a day the other day, im going to go for super speed front seats but with the back seat remaining and that will be that

All black black paint, black leather , black piano wood and black wheels.

 

[Gibbo]

With that exhaust it sounds just like the Mustang, loving that.

Pointless having a quiet mode as you will never leave loud mode
