My good friend who is a BMW dealer is getting his first batch of M3s next month... he offered me one of the delivery models but I am hesitant since only the manual ones not DCT are available for a few months... wonder if I should wait.

Had a small run with some friends this morning. We had a 997 TT, 997 GT3 and an E92 M3. Rained a bit in the beginning but luckily it lightened up a little later. The new E92 M3 sounds really good! Very high pitched. The GT3 also sounded amazing! I'll upload a few videos a little later as well.
For now here are the photo's.

DAMN your lambo sounds horny! You have to make a few more vids for us Mike - please! I have never like yellow - but now, after seeing you lovely motor - wow! By the way, how is the driving position in a RHD? In particular the foot well? Guessing it's a lot narrower than a LHD car.... Here in Japan they only offer RHD because nobody buys the RHD because of the offset pedals...I ordered a Gallardo last year but was told a month after signing the paperwork that a RHD car would take an extra 12 months on the 6 month waiting list AND an extra GBP 15,000 - as expected I cancelled the order.

Hi there, I'll make a couple more videos in the near future I don't find the that the offset for the pedals is cramped at all. Maybe in the 6speed version it could possible be? I have the Egear so I only have 2 pedals, for that I find it perfect.

Hey Mike,
For some reason I just "assume" everybody buys a six speed
I have driven a lefty 6 speed and even that was narrow, the rhd must be hard to drive comfortably. The egear of course makes it a lot easier.
