Impressive car . I was out jogging (Miami) . It was white , carbon roof , aerokit and some bits , lowered , ferocious sound . I'm guessing no cats . It was driven by a woman late 20's approx .

It was today . It sounded like your car which was posted (the search feature helped) so it may have the same setup but it has an aerokit (perhaps vorsteiner?) in black . BTW -I enjoyed the setup/presentation you did on your car . It's really nicely done.

It's hard to get a good look at a car while jogging but I noticed it was lowered, had the active tag , was white, saw the driver, and got an idea of the aerokit .

I have had an M3 for a few months (second car/gf drives) but I have mixed feelings about the car. It's been reliable , practical, comfortable and fast but maybe its me --I am just not thrilled with it. She loves the car.

I had wanted a two Porsche household but we neded space . When I saw a woman driving the M car I thought that maybe my gf (primary driver) would like this (or similar) and perhaps I would enjoy this car more myself.
I am just not sure .When in doubt -I usually say no to mods.

Either way my 997tt EVT700 is getting more upgrades as we speak so I won't tune the m3 at the same time but I am open to looking .

This does not surprise me, as I have driven a new M3 and know others who are owners as well and although they love the car, they feel that it is not the level of performance that the car should be and that the previous M3 was more involving to drive with its high strung straight six!

It was not mine, I drove it today...

From your pic, your 997 looks very similar to the 360 forged TT. Do you live on Brickell area?

I know Omar from AA has a white with the Vorsteiner Boot. Tony kanaan also have one but his windows are pretty dark. They both have the same AA setup as mine. Oh, now I remember there's a girl that has one also and according to Omar she has some AA parts, don't think she has the x-pipe w/ catless version though, just the rear section.

I have seen Tony's car (I don't know him but saw the car) and its not his . His has Brembo's and carbon trim if i recall correct. His has the Active tag too and exhaust note also sounds good .

There's a few black Turbos and they have a similar look but depending on the tuner parts , aerokit, wheels , suspension each can be quite unique . I am not in Brickell . This car was Dadeland area , Not too far from active (15 min drive distance) .

15 with an M3? Wow. Even if money is not an issue as a parent I wouldn't buy an M3 as her first car...
