First M

Picking up my 2011 Le Mans blue over palladium silver e92 m3 saturday, first m for the collection. Does anyone have production stats on Lmb e9x m3?

Congrats on the new M3! I will be honest, that looks like Interlagos to me and not Le Mans. Mainly because of the orange peel on the paint, mine is worse than that! Every Le Mans car I've seen has much better paint application than that.

If you pop the hood, there should be a plate on the bottom that says the color of the car.

That Database is awesome but not perfect. My e93 has never showed up in it, no matter what I try and change. The numbers are probably accurate by colors, but I think they have missed checked boxes and options, so real exact production numbers are wrong.

Thank you, it's Lmb there's a plac on the door, the cars never been painted so i'm thinking that orange peel is a result of lemans blue being a thick factory paint

It's funny, after I commented I looked at the photos and immediately changed my mind. That is definitely LMB

Thank you, I am blessed to have it. It was for sale for 9 hours before I bought it. I've put 20k miles on it in less than two years.

You got a comp though! The Style 359 wheels are one of the best wheels BMW ever made IMO; I just couldn't except the fact I'd need replicas to get the width and stance I wanted.

If you ever think of supercharging the car, I do recommend it if you ever want the power. Nonetheless enjoy it! BMW will never make another car like this again.

i thought it was a comp....... i knew the rims were aftermarket but on the listing it said edc and for some reason i thought it was a comp. it doesn't have edc either its on aftermarket rims but the best could ask for, Rac rg4 v1, e46 m3 csl style rims, 12mm spacers upfront and lowered half an inch all around on dianan springs. sits pretty nice would definitely recommend putting rims on your e9x i'm not a fan of the m220 and m219

Rac monolite Rg4 v1 slightly different to the e9x m3 zcp rims, based off the e46 zcp rims very rare forged wheel

Great car Mike. I saw it sitting in the showroom at performance.
