Hey guys. It's been a long time, figured I would post here as almost a welcome back. Not sure if many of you remember me, I'm also known as @ThatPhotographer on Instagram or my YouTube "Spencer Berke". Haven't posted here in a long time. I had a dream of becoming a salesman and photographer for Lamborghini when I first joined here. I've been with a dealer now for about 6 years and I've cycled through a ton of cars. I remember when I first joined here when I was a teenager and I had a dream of owning an M3 one day.

I was able to sell a handful of cars last month. I spent years searching for the right car. (Had to be a Interlagos Blue M3, black interior, manual with a clean record). I found one about two years ago, but it didn't make sense and I was buried in my Subaru STi. I found the perfect one and pulled the trigger. I was going back and forth between an e46 and the e9X. I'm a sucker for four doors, so I couldn't pass this up. I'm now a proud M3 owner! :buttrock

I had an 88 E30 that I put a lot of time and money into, may recall me by my old rides.

I'm very excited to be a part of the BMW family again. I will be attending some CCA events here in San Diego along with a bunch of Cars & Coffees. First things first, maintenance and check ups.

Small list of what I have planned.

60k major service
Brakes - fluids etc
Gintani Exhaust
ESS Supercharger
Coilovers
Cage
Sparco Seats
Alcantara Steering Wheel

If anybody recommends anything for the e90 M3's, please let me know! Very familiar with the M20 motors, but not these beast V8's, lol. A lot to learn but man, I'm excited! Brandon Watson where you at?!

I think that front lip is hideous, but thats just my personal taste and its hard to go wrong with an E9x M3 in any form.

I'd spend money tending to their common problems before dumping big bucks on performance. Rod bearings are notoriously problematic on these engines.

What a dream come true... and what a car. WOW. Only had it for 15 hours or so and I can't wait to drive it more.
