Tristan 338 Report post Posted May 19, 2013 (edited) Thanks for the kind words Christian. $500.. wow. Some CF options around for 200-300USD which I'm looking at but prioritising the SSK for now. Christian, which SS exhaust do you have? Is it just the backbox or full set up? Cheers Edited May 19, 2013 by Tristan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

central3 31 Report post Posted May 22, 2013 Thanks it was one of the selling points hehe Beautiful - I have never seen this colour in the flesh but imagine it is pretty special - noticed that the sellers price expection dropped a bit as time went on - -was the deal done "with a 3 in front of it'?

Thanks Yes, it was. I don't think $40K was a realistic price. I'm hoping to bring this to a standard where it can hold a candle to yours!

Lower km's + Estoril Blue + your plans = you win Great to see the increasing numbers of E46 M3's on this forum - need a meet somewhere - Tom suggested an NZ event to celebrate the CSL anniversary – should do Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd definitely love one of those events We should definitely do it! Plans require money hehe. I'll get there sooner or later. Steel grey (yours?) is still fantastic. The one I was looking at before this was SG but it sold. The dove grey interior has grown on me, even the two-tone steering wheel has. The flash in the sellers photos made it look A LOT paler than it is. I also did the Lux Soap flakes clean this afternoon! WOW! What a difference. Thank you Central - the interior looks great. The water was almost black afterwards Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
