My New E86 M Coupe

TurboDream17 · 04-06-2014, 06:15 PM

Hey all,

I've been a long time lurker on this forum and finally purchased an M Coupe last weekend from fellow zpost member SlipNSlide.

Here's a few pics:

I've owned and daily driven a 1999 E36 M3 in Titanium Silver for the last 8 years, so I'm familiar with BMW's and this will be a nice upgrade for me.

Here's a link to the rest of the pictures I took today for anyone interested:

Cheers!

Brilliant! Looks well sorted, congrats!

Welcome! You should join in on an SD coupe cruise sometime! Either way I'll wave when I see you whether I'm in the M or the ZHP.

Definitely! I literally work 1 block away from where you guys took that photo. Shoot me a message sometime when you guys are getting together.

itdnwiwbp · 04-06-2014, 09:45 PM

I live right across the street from where we took the photo. We should definitely schedule a meet up at some point. I'd love to hear the RPIs.

Looks awesome mate. Congrats.

Jroc · 04-07-2014, 10:46 AM

So clean

nekky · 04-07-2014, 11:05 AM

Congrats on the car! Previous owner seems like a good guy! Hopefully you can enjoy it as much as he did. Welcome to our little exclusive club.

Gorgeous coupe. Congrats!

If anybody is planning on stopping by the Long Beach Grand Prix tomorrow, my car will be on display in the Mother's Exotic Car Show so keep your eyes open for it

GP20 · 04-14-2014, 02:41 PM

I was never a fan of those wheels with the thick spokes, but for some reason they look really good on your ///M. So clean, simple and elegant.

drbvac · 04-14-2014, 05:27 PM

Wait and see if you get more looks and honks than you did in the M-3

donoman · 04-15-2014, 04:11 PM

Looks awesome!!! That sure is one stubby antenna.

philjw · 04-15-2014, 05:48 PM

Looks great. Love those wheels on your car.

Jumbosock · 04-15-2014, 06:58 PM

Yep I work near that area too! Congrats on your purchase. I get WAY more looks and comments in my M than I did with my CSL style E46M3.

Jumbosock · 04-15-2014, 07:00 PM

P.S. Slap on the aero side skirts if you like them. They just went on sale. I LOVE the way the car looks with them!
