Default So I wasn't really happy in the 7...

So I got rid of it. Took a bit of a hit. But ended up in this:

12K miles, fully loaded (original sticker was 97K!!!), and yes, this one has three pedals.

Yes, CPO - until June 2014. This was a late 08. And you're right, should have done it right the first time.

I knew you were going to say that. How about matte black HRE P40s?

Thanks for the kind words Dan and Ash.

Japanese exhaust: OneandOnly. The featured car has Neez wheels too! http://www.youtube.com/watch#!v=W3X0...eature=related


The Meisterschaft sounds incredible but I don't think I could live with it on a daily basis.

Will tint windows. Prob no tinted tails, just never really liked them.

Alan, that does sound way better than the tubi one very street smooth but still has the F1 resonance. I still prefer the raw nasty awesomeness of Meisterschaft though.

I was gonna suggest that too, but it seems to be impossible to actually buy. A bunch of M3 guys tried a while back IIRC and couldn't get it..

Same here too
This company is extremely difficult to buy this.
Alan, just go to M5board daily in the for sale secition. These cars have become old enough that you can find many decent used parts and exhausts from credible sellers, where you don't have to pay retail on a new one.
