AUTOcouture Motoring: Your LOCAL 1 stop BMW Shop

As some of you may know by now, "Big Purp" has been sold. There are many who disagreed with this decision, but we saw her off properly with a farewell photo shoot at Monticello Motor Club in New York for Performance BMW Magazine. A friend of ours bought the car partially parted out, so we still see it and work on it from time to time. We'd like to introduce you to her replacement - a fully loaded 2011 Melbourne Red 6 speed E92 M3 with 10k miles. This car will begin its build in preparation for Bimmerfest East in about a month, so keep checking back here for progress on the car.

surprised Sal went with a 6spd, do I smell something cooking??????

I concur.

Hey guys, I'm interested in doing an OEM exhaust mod (perforated method tho to be a tad quieter) and installing my MS spacers...I don't know if this is the right thread but could you PM me a price for installing both of these? Baby mods I know lol

That dog is awesome! Was great to finally see the shop today. And can't wait to see what the M is going to sound like tomorrow with the test pipes and remus exhaust.
