Finally Arrived: 2016 Laguna Seca Blue M3

Brasko · 01-03-2016, 11:43 AM

Happy New Year!

Just wanted to share a couple pics of my new M3. It arrived on Christmas, but I was away on holiday and couldn't pick it up till the New Year. Took a couple pics of it to share when it was sunny and nice the other day. It's snowing in Portland today so it's parked in the garage. I'll do a proper right up and more pics when the weather permits.

In the mean time, here's the build and a list of modifications taking place this week. The MPE was installed at the dealership prior to picking up the vehicle and I've already installed the M Performance gloss black grills over the weekend.
