Default Austin M3 Sightings

I was out to lunch today and I saw a nice Alpine White M3 at the corner of Burleson and Montopolis. Not sure if the owner is a member but wanted to say Nice Car!

Also, I always see a Titanium Silver M3 parked at a mobile home dealer off of 71 and 973. I'm assuming the owner works there or owns the place?

If it's AW with black BBS LM's, that would be Moadsters.

There's a Panda (half black carbon pieces, half alpine white) themed AW e46 M3 in town w/ CSL reps that's always parked at a car shop off of S. Lamar. It would look great if it were completely painted.

I didn't notice the wheels because he was turning onto Montopolis as I was turning on to Burleson. Very clean car though. Jickel, I've never seen your car around town but would like to see it in person sometime. I'm considering going the CSL pieces route but have never seen any of them in person.

north austin has some nice M3's some times. I see Jickel from time to time on the road.

I also see a Yellow M3 on Parmer every morning with black te-37's that I think works at Dell or Samsung. Without sounded ignorant/racist I believe the driver is asian/
Very clean and potentially boosted E46

Ah that explains it. I live near the airport because of where I work so there aren't many BMWs on my side of town. I do venture to southpark meadows a lot though.
