BMW E90 M3
This was my second E9X M3, this time a 4 door. It was mostly there for daily driver duties, however, it’s such a good car I ended up doing quite a few track days in it, and taking it to the Nurburgring twice.
it was Carbon Black originally, and as with V1TEN; no-one needs that in their life.
Mechanically it’s a very basic recipe of HSD MonoPro coilovers, Work Meister S1 wheels, a primary decat and some decent brake pads. I used to fit a Sparco S2000 drivers bucket seat when doing trackdays.
Visually I had it painted in my own black as it was Carbon Black originally, and as with V1TEN; no-one needs that in their life. Before painting I did a little archwork at the rear to accommodate 19×11.5″ Work Wheels with a 295/30/19 Cup2 tyre.

I didn't film much on this car in the early days. This is just a wheel change video.
