hokejka · 09-14-2016, 01:24 PM

why put such terrible tires on such a nice car?

PARTS@STBMW · 09-14-2016, 01:26 PM

Phenomenal photos! Well done.

Yeineken · 09-14-2016, 01:54 PM

This must be the one I saw while visiting Boston in August!

Robby29 · 09-14-2016, 02:23 PM

My first "tuner" car that got me into cars was a Subaru Wrx Sti. Still to this day I kind of regret selling it but man was that thing a tin can lol

After about a year and a half of ownership I ended up selling the subaru for a DCT alpine white e93 M3

A few Years went by and I added a few things to the M3 but nothing crazy as my heart was set on getting my hands on a cayman GT4, lucky for me I was actually blessed to get my hands on two of them at the start of production. I ended up flipping the white one but thats a story for another day

6/8/16 I picked up my new M2 from a local dealership in the Boston area. Its a 16 LBB 6mt w/ exec package. It also came with a few M performance parts: Black kidney grills, carbon fiber mirrors and carbon fiber spoiler.

First few mods were BMS clutch stop which I almost feel is mandatory for the 6mt, I also had the roof wrapped gloss black and the windows Tinted 20 percent all around. I also installed a VRSF catless downpipe which you can see below for sound reference.

Is that's not an AF Base in the background I'd be shocked.

I agree! I had one of your exhausts on a 996 turbo and loved everything about it! lets work something out

jetsetkicks · 09-14-2016, 05:08 PM

Damn these wheels look GOOD on here

ginginha · 09-14-2016, 06:11 PM

I'm reticent to comment because my momma told me "if you don't have anything good to say, don't say anything at all." So I suppose I'm not a very good listener. But I totally agree with the other comments about the wheels. When first seeing the photos, I actually said out loud to myself "that looks awful." To each their own. As long as the OP is happy, that's all that matters.

Bigcatkian · 09-14-2016, 06:40 PM

I have a nice update I ordered the M performance shift knob, armrest, and Ebrake for the M235i that comes with the white stitching. When that arrives I plan on changing the white sticking to the M tristitch to match the steering wheel. I love the blue stitching but for some reason I feel like everything you touch often should have the M tristitch.

anyway heres a few more pics of the Meisters

trynalivepro · 09-14-2016, 09:34 PM

Car looks great lowered on the Meisters, 👌👌👌

Digitalize · 09-14-2016, 09:35 PM

I dig it, I dig it A LOT. I'd have been tempted by a dark bronze rather than full black, but awesome to see the Meister S1's on the F87 already, excellent choice of wheel.

Chuck a bit of carbon aero on there and it's as good as perfect.

HXS · 09-14-2016, 10:26 PM

I love most Work wheels, including those Meisters. I just wish they didn't weigh like 100 lbs each. I had a set of VS-XX that weighed a ton also.

M3 Number 86 · 09-14-2016, 10:50 PM

Hoping flipping meant literally. Want to hear that story. Not some sold it boring shit

GotE46M · 09-15-2016, 02:38 AM

Damn looks awesome!

UsualSuspect · 09-15-2016, 05:28 AM

Sitting just right on the KWs!

classyfast · 09-15-2016, 07:37 AM

Nice mods except for the wheels, they just don't work with the proportions of the car.

Love the Cayman, not sure if you traded that or sold it for the m2, but I wouldn't have given that up for any current M car
