Hats off to the previous owner, this is a very well executed sleeper, incredibly civilized and understated. Great choices made in mods . . .

I'll try to be brief but I'm pretty excited, won't sleep to well tonight . . .

While I was working at Streetwerke this customer presented his perfect 12,000 mile car wanting APR stage 3+, M box right? The whole shebang, dp's, ic's, bipipe, CM Stg 3 . . .

After completing the install and the test drive I was really impressed. In passing, I said if you ever want to sell it . . . you know, half joking, knowing down deep the guy would never part with such a fine example. So he emailed me last Thursday asking if I was interested. I said I was. He called me first, didn't post it on ebay etc . . . I made an offer, he told me what he wanted so I met him in the middle.

Some of you may think I'm crazy but I know this car and I know the owner. It was a no brainer and an opportunity that would in all reality never be available again.

APR Stg 3+, CM Stg 3, Ohlins 7/8, center diff, AWE vent gauge, Stoptech 355's, 18" LE37's, some STROMUNG or something exhaust, 14,500 miles, Santorin, black leather, all weather mats, custom car cover, all documentation, no service records basically, all keys, manuals . . .

I opened the hood and recognized my own somewhat **** retentive work, hose clamps the right way round, everything properly sorted etc . . .

Come to Papa . . . =)

Default huhuh . . . I think my pearl will be the trackmaster and the santorin will be the bling driver . . .

I dunno . . .

Funny, this is the only car I've ever had that didn't have OEM wheels . . .

Default I need a ride so I can see how the APR sauce feels

By the way, I have a Stromung on my M3, and I love it. They make good stuff.
