The story

Saw a Craigslist advert for it back in 2014 on the outskirts of New York City. Figured it was an odd M3 the way it was purple with a yellow interior. Met up with the guy talked to him for a bit. Had a few problems here and there, no big deal. So I took the front plate off my friends Audi s4 we drove down there, and we put it on the back of the M3 and made the two and a half hour journey home to northern Connecticut. It was a blast to drive. So far it has been quite the car for me. Probably one of the fastest, best handling cars I’ve ever owned. She’s a great car but she is showing her age. Not bad for a 20 year old m3. I’ve put a lot of work into her over the years and countless paychecks. It’s been worth it so far.
