2011 BMW e90 M3.

After months of searching and test drives i eventually found a replacement for my Alpina D3. Alpine was a superb all round package but i missed that V8 sound.

you need your eyes testing because I think that red looks amazing! makes the car look more special!

excellent choice of car

[ToryJosh]

The red is so good, he posted it twice

[SammyW]

Lovely, i think i actually prefer the look of the saloon over the coupe, looks more aggressive somehow. And i like the red, makes a nice change from the usual shades of grey.

Great looking car, rare in red I'd imagine too!
Where was that last shot taken?
I'm racking my brains, but can't remember how I know the place.

Last shot was taken at The Tummel Inn just west of Pitlochry. Had a great week touring the central lowlands and Highlands.

That's the reason i went for the saloon. I think the rear looks more aggressive and chunk.

I opted for the Melbourne Red because as a kid i would see my mates dads red e30 M3 Sport almost daily. The car just reminds me of that. As does the swage line that leads to the boot.

[philmots]

That looks great. Specially in red!

Although, I prefer the 18's to the 19's unless they're the competition pack, csl type ones. But that's just me.

Great buy

I've done similar in the past.
Used to holiday in the Loch Tay area as a kid so have been past the Tummel Inn a few times.

...and my new 'daily'. Which after 100k shows no sign of giving up anytime soon. Bargain for a grand! FSH too.

Love the saloon

So much better looking than the coupe in my opinion!
