What are your plans for super charging it?
im sorry for coming out rude but I think its a bit worse telling me what i posted shouldnt be in a LEXUS forum because its clearly a BMW, that being said did not even considered to acknowledge my thread purpose. now it might be my fault for misplacing it in the sc300/400 section instead of the off topic section but i did figure since i owned and shared the sc300/400 forums id put my post in there.

To the gentlemen I called out, next time just consider suggesting a mod to move the thread to the proper section.

You admit it's your fault for posting in an improper section, consider the other guy's statement to be valid, are rude and insulting to someone based off of a harmless post, and you think he's still in the wrong and made the "worse" statement?

Do you have a woman arguing for you or something?

I wouldn't have said anything myself as it's not a big deal, but come on...

***THIS IS A RANT***


You know what.......people on this forum are going from rude at times to just down right hateful

I posted a thread about my M3 I bought last year and people said nice car enjoy it etc

You post a thread not even a full year later and People give you grief

Why cant you just be nice and say something positive.

If the mods want to move it to OT fine

But the OP wanted to share his new car with us fellow SC drives not the IS drivers or the GS or LS.

He wanted to share something he enjoys with the same people who own the same car as him. People with a common interest.

This is the reason I hardly get on here any more its so negative



So anyways nice color and a great find looks like the PO took good care of it. Enjoy it

Ive all ways liked the color better on BMW then Subaru

Nice clean M3 you got there, enjoy it! Also your last couple of pictures , is that Red Rock Canyon? It's hard to believe it snows there considering when I was there during the summer I couldn't imagine it getting cold there.

A very nice car.

By the way, I'm a new BMW owner myself and now I understand what BMW owners mean about driving pleasure. Although I have a base model 118d, it's extremely fun to drive. Sometimes, after returning home from work, I don't want to get out of the car after I park it.

Nice find! Looks clean as hell. How many miles does it have? Auto or manual?

I'm usually not a yellow car fan, but yours looks great. I could maybe put up with my wife's anti-yellow-car rants for that.

And if you want to knock about illiteracy, check your own posts. They're riddled with errors.

The car looks amazing.


PS its a car chat forum. The M3 is a car so its appropriate.

It was towed from the SC300/400 specific forum. I'm not even the guy who called it out, though. I just called the OP out for being rude.
