Got my new M3 yesterday.
Pictures in
my gallery. .
Running in so no idea how quick or flexible it'll be compared to my S4 but I know the Audi will take some beating.
Happy (track) days

Bling....yeah
Outside lane of Mways ...... well not in an Audi but hey why not?
Exhaust rattle at 8000 rpm (yes thats 8000 rpm)......probably
Brake mods....well they say braided calipers and Pagid yellows but we'll see
Traitor......naturally
First impressiions .......running in, handling v good, solid feel and I'd say more involving that my old S4, but until I unleash a few horses I doon't really know. Trackdays will tell though [img]images/graemlins/biggrin3.gif[/img]
So that's not bad - I'm thinking I got away a bit lightly there, phew [img]images/graemlins/3flypigs.gif[/img]

Lovely car Ian,
Handling and brakes are top notch and that engine

Has to be the best one in any affordable (sub £50k) volume production car.
Congratulations and enjoy.

Ian,
Nice car - great choice of colour. I'll have to come up to MK sometime and go skiing again - maybe you can show me how an M3 eats the roundabouts?
Cheers,
Dave
P.S. Does the handbook actually recommend a running-in period?
