Saw a new M3

On the highway this morning with distributer plates. White, with no propeller logo on the back

Thought it was an RS4 or something as I was coming up on it. Theen I was like...no, that's no Audi. What the hell is it? Came along side on I saw the vent on the front fender, and I thought "Holy Moley, is that an M3?" Yup, sure enough it was.

The front hood had tape over the gaps between the fenders and front bumper. Gave the 2 guys in it a thumb's up, and then went on my merry way.

I didn't take pictures because last time I took a pic of a pre-pro RS4, and they looked like crap. Too bad I didn't have a 2 megapixel iPhone camera with me

Cool, I seen a ton of bald egales in Alaska the other day on tv.

It was so cool, never seen that many at one time in one place.

One lady even feeds them raw fish meat out of her hands.

That's a classic reply. Cracked me up pretty good. For those who can't figure it out, he's basically pointing out how stupid the thread is.

silvrevo.....what was in your coffee this AM? Eagles? When was the last time you saw an eagle with a vent on its fender? I'm confused as you are Box Rocket.

Even though it made no sense, it was still pretty funny.

Now I'm the jerk? That's funny.

Hey, I was excited to see an M3 on the road before they're being sold to the public. That's it.

If you don't like it, that's fine...but go **** on someone else's thread.

That's awesome! Given what the 335i can do, I'd love to see what the new M3 is capable of. Do you have a link to the specs, atlvalet?

Apparently it's stupid that I saw a car on the road that won't be out for a year.


Here's the link:

More respect. He is just making a comment about a known long waited sports car.
