Nice job spyman!

I'm going to get a 2021 and I appreciated your M3 analysis ... hadn't thought about it, but yeah, these will probably heavily discount when the M3 comes out so might be best to watch inventory, although I love my priority 1s ... hopefully someone will have the combo I want.

Congrats!

I actually wanted red seats but I didn't want to custom order because it would be more expensive so I went with this one because I love white seats.

Agreed!

The Toronto is SO vibrant. The X3M is a special car and it deserves to stand out in a special color like the Toronto. While I do like Donnington, theres SO many white, black, silver cars out there...would hate to blend in with everyone else, and I've always been a black car kinda guy.

Even people that don't know cars or what an X3M even is...when they see it in red they all know its something different than your garden variety X3. I get complements on my Toronto from strangers almost daily since I've had it

The 'vert is awesome! I have another 11 months with her and then ... thinking this X3MC thing. Good news on this thread is, nobody can give me shit about the 'vert's weight

given you're first in on this thing, how's she drive?

Haven't opened her up yet, still in the break in. 500 miles left before I burn rubber 😁

Welcome to the toronto red club! by far the best color. Even my 90 year old grandma loves the color, says it will be easy to find in a parking lot amongst a sea of gray and black :-)

So my break-in service was on Thursday morning and it was pouring rain here in Austin since then. Finally this morning it's a typical gorgeous sunny Texas morning, a cool 43 degrees out, just perfect for my baby's twin scroll turbos

So of course the little fucker that I am I make some lame excuse with the wife that I have to go out to the store and get stuff. I leave my hood and get onto state highway 45 which is basically a 65mph Highway that has zero traffic on it on a Sunday morning. As soon as I merge on, I'm about to floor it and there's a 911 Turbo in front of me. It's an older model, maybe early 2010s, and he sees me coming up to him on the left lane and the fucker floors it, I can see shit coming out of his exhaust but I start gaining on him, he moves out of the way to the right lane and with my pedal still to the metal I fly past him at 124mph, leaving his face to be so stunned and priceless that I still haven't been able to wipe my grin.

M Power baby... you don't need to spend $150k to get 911 performance anymore.

All I can say is, just like Julia: "I love my life!"
