Bone stock not a single mod on it bought it from original owner who kept it in a aircraft hanger :yesway:



Took the bad boy out for a 200 mile drive soon as I took delivery. Man what a world of difference :twothumb:

While i respect the power and performance of the M's i think that expensive a car should have come with better looking wheels. They've gotten better about that with the newer models, but some of their older cars had some ugly wheels on them.

But she looks beautiful! I'm sure it's more fun to drive than a 3g :yesway:

Single, twin-tip, you mean.

Plus, "M" badge = rice.

Real "M"s have dual-twin-tip exhausts towards the middle of the vehicle, and not way off to the left. :ugh:

J/k. Nice purchase. Congrats! :lol: :bigthumb:

Common misconception. All I6 BMW's from the E30 -> E46 have always been dual exhaust. 2 manifolds, 2 cats, 2 different diameter tuned pipes all the way back to seperate chambered single muffler. Here is a pick of the UUC catback.

You are correct on that. Mercedes does the same thing with thier I6 motors. Even my mom's Benz Wagon has duals, but it goes into one muffler :squint: .

Nice car man, my sister is thinking about trading in her 3G Spyder for one. Good Luck with it, and good color choice :twothumb:

Holy shit no!!! Those would be fucking UGLY on a beemer and god knows a beemer needs all the help it can get!!

You'll have to get something with a little more style than the K1s, unless you're talking about strictly race wheels!

Congrats--I hate Beemers, but I know I'm in a small minority. It's a fun car, to be sure!

JR keeps using peer pressure on me to get the K1's I'm succumbing to his wily ways.
