  • E93 m3

    Hi all

    I'm on the lookout for an E93 M3 (convertible) specifically in Santorino blue. I've driven 400 miles to look at one today, unfortunately looks like it's had a knock as the wing was out of alignment and the headlight brackets were broken.

    Does anyone have experience with these and could chime in with thoughts?

    I hope to see another for the second time tomorrow in Southampton

    Be sure to apportion some of your budget to getting the rod bearings done Martin.

                  Nice! Not a fan of the black wheels but that's easily changed.

                    Congrats mate, Imola is a rare colour on E9Xs! Main things on the S65 are throttle actuators and rod bearings. Throttle actuators can be rebuilt with a lifetime warranty if they do fail quite cheaply now as for the bearings yours looks to be a facelift which have upgraded bearings as long as it has been maintained well I wouldn't worry too much. Else it is around £1200 to get them replaced as preventative maintenance.

                      Cheers

                      Its the Limited Edition 500 which were imola red, santorino blue and white.

                      Fortunately this is covered under bmw warranty until Jan 2020 so should anything go wrong it will be fixed

                        Very nice Martin I bet the V8 soundtrack is intoxicating.

                        Any plans for it?

                          I picked the car up at the weekend. My only plan is to get the exhaust modified to release a bit more of that V8 noise. I'm not going to go crazy with it though
