My little Bmw M3 E46 SMGII
Hello Everybody ,
After spending many hours to read topics of this forum , I decided to start mine... First of all , I want to say that this forum is a real mine of information. On this point , American forum are 100X better than French forum ! I also love the good state of mind of the members here  ! Well... Now , let's talk about the car . October 2003 M3 E46 SMGII with approximately 97 000km ( ~60 000 miles ) Titanium silver with a lot of factory options and some little modifications. Modifications list : Engine: -Stock with only a K&N air filter Exhaust : -Bastuck Exhaust Suspension : -Eibach Springs -10mm spacer on the front Brakes: -BBK bmw performance ( Brembo 6 pistons from the 135i with CSL discs ) Exterior/Esthetic : -Carbon fiber CSL diffuser -Angel Eyes 6000K -Black grills ( front & side ) -Depo smoked corners -New headlight lens -Carbon fiber bmw emblem ( bonnet , trunk , and wheels ) My plan is to make a smooth evolution. Make purposeful mods for better handling while remaining comfortable for every day. This is why the rear seats will remain, the car will not emptied ect... I want to keep the strength of the E46 M3 namely his great versatility... I upgrade the car because I'm since last year a Nürburgring Nordschleife addict. The first time that I went to the Nürburgring, I have loved this place and now , it's the favorite playground of my car ! Next modifications that I planned to do : - Bilstein PSS10 ( or PSS9 ) coilovers - A set of 18" wheels for the track with semi-slick tires. I'm sorry for my bad English , I apologize by posting some pics on the Ring ...

Welcome.
After spending the last 2 weeks in France with family I glad that you have proved me wrong as I had decided that residents of France just were not "into" cars. Glad I was wrong.... now im off to rescue all the old cars that are just standing around rotting away. Equinox

Thank you everybody
 ! Equinox : A lot of people in France are not "into" cars... My impression is that in other country ( Germany , England , US ... ) when people see a beautiful car they say : " Oh great car , lucky owner ! " In France it's more like : " Look at this Assh... who is driving around with his big car "  It's not everywhere in France but sometimes it's irritating to see that... I'm 20 years old and people believe that I'm a drug dealer because I drive a BMW
