Congrats on the purchase. I hear the DCT is incredible and I'm sure you'll love it.

If you're interested in some nice 20" wheels, I would suggest looking into a set of DPE Signature Series wheels.



Another popular modification for the M3 would be the Eisenmann Race exhaust system. We have 1 coming in 2 weeks.

Congrats on the purchase. Don't listen to the dealership they will probably just want you to use Dinan stuff... don't. I would suggest you stick with 19's and some springs or coilovers. Exhaust will make your car sound even better and of course lighten up your wallet quite a bit... don't expect big gains in hp from it.

warranty is only voided IF something goes wrong with your car and they can PROVE that the aftermarket part(s) you purchased was the cause of the problem - therefore simple bolt on modifications, such as intake, exhaust, etc. CANNOT void your warranty, unless of course the problem is rooted back to those parts... but there is no reason why simple bolt on parts should cause any problems

expect a little hp gain but the sound is pure sex. one of the best sounding V8 out there after the exhaust. it's available because i got a M5 instead, again.

It will make your car sound like this:

It'll also free up a few extra ponies to the already potent V8.

Like I mentioned, I have 1 new system coming in 2 weeks that isn't spoken for. Contact me if you're interested.

I have attached an image of the exhaust in question.
