Drove my friend's M4. Love that car, but I didn't find that it would be a replacement for a 911.

Please read the forum rules. They state no pics with car parked and spoiler up.

Congrats on the 911! I drove a new M3 the other day and as soon as I jumped back in my Carrera it only confirmed how special the car is. Cheers!

Long time Bimmer guy, Beemer guy too. I miss my Z4 and had planned an F83 M4 but after driving the C2S cabrio, there was no looking back for me. (Especially once I learned how to fit a baby seat in the back!)

I also have owned BMW motorcycles since 2000 and love them. I'm selling my R1200R for the Porsche, too. While Porsche doesn't make motorcycles, I won't have much use for my bike since I haven't figured how to put a car seat on the thing without getting a sidecar!

Congrats, BIGWORM! Love the user name and more so the infamous movie character it's affiliated with.
No ///M cars here but the wife and I still drive 2 Bimmers. A big fat 535 GT and a 328xi which is my DD.

Surprised you lasted 10 months in the new M. I lasted 10 minutes and was trying to like it until the wife killed the deal and we stepped up to a 991 GTS.

Enjoy the new ride in good health
