    It’s a 2001 Laguna Seca Blue on black, piano black trims, 6mt, 129000km. Need love, no maintenance done for it’s whole life pretty much… but I have tons of spare parts.


    Congrats, I would love to have a second M3, working on trying to at least source a 2nd engine that isn't 9k just in case. Hopefully this winter prices fall enough I may get a second coupe in the garge.

      Thanks

      I also started to buy spare parts lately. I have a spare S54 engine, diff, MSS54HP DME, ZCP calipers, … I will try to get a spare 6mt tranny eventually!

I rubbed a little on the rear of the front fender liner with a 265/35 Advan AO52, but I think that tire runs big. I have shaved rear fenders and rolled fronts with the lining trimmed. I have a standard track alignment and I'm not super low. Plenty of people run that size wheel though, you should be fine. Go big or go home right?
        I appreciate your advice….go big or go home lol! Thanks!!!

            It's a hamann replica. They pop up on eBay from time to time but they're pretty hard to find.

              true that. been wondering if an e36 ltw wing without the risers would be a suitable substitute

                I'm not sure if it would sit flush with the trunk. The lower part of the wing sits directly on the trunk lid and the curvature of the E36 and E46 trunk is different. Maybe you could just not use the lower part and mount the upper part directly to the trunk lid?

                    Went from the track rims to the street rims. Same style, same spec, just different colors

                          Finally all the lightweight exterior and aero is done. Only took some pics in the garage right now.

                                I think you might have a problem. First step is admitting it. Second step is getting help. You've come to the right place for help, but have you accomplished step 1 yet?
