It took me about three years to find my Jet Black stripper (no options), and it's been seven years since then to find this one. I've wanted a final year Le Mans Blue stripper E90M for over a decade, so it's a monumental purchase. Only 185 LMB E90 M3s were ever made without consideration of spec. With my spec requirements being very specific (see below), it's no wonder that it took me so long to find the needle in the haystack. I fly out this weekend with the wife to spend a couple days on the beach, and we'll drive it back.

2011 E90 M3 "Stripper"
Le Mans Blue
Speed Cloth interior
6-speed manual
Slick Top (no sunroof)
Single hump (no nav)

I'll get some better pictures. This is before paint correction and detail, new tires, etc. Intentionally dirty so we can leave it for the detailers. I can't wait to drive the wheels off of it.

Damn, beautiful spec! I've been having the E9x M3 itch for a while. I just don't need 3 cars, and if I pursue an E9x M3, the G30 540 has to go. I can't get over the fact I'll lose $15k~ selling the car.

That's what my brother-in-law keeps telling me. Told me to keep the 540 as a daily and sell the 07 Accord I currently daily. But, I don't think I want the headache of owning two BMWs

I'm young. I guess I've got "time"?

So the 20+ yr old 50" Panasonic plasma finally bit the dust. It really was too small for the living room, but couldn't see replacing it in perfect working condition. Picture was really good. .. so Santa came early.

I was looking at the LG G4 series, but $1300.00 more... value to me was not there over the C4 series... So i used that $$ to buy a new Panasonic blu ray player, and LG 9 channel surround sound system. The old one still worked; probably was close to 20 yr old as well...but it was an all in one Samsung blu ray/5 channel surround player that was not 4k. So why not...

An earlier version of the 4108 is what put my neighbor's killer in prison for 25-life.

I ordered a new 5216 and hard drive the day after that incident, so that I could put the evidence on the shelf in case someone accused me of tampering with the downloaded video files.....

Got mine up and running with 4 cams so far. I had a weird issue with the admin password at first. I started setting the NVR up using the HDMI connection and a mouse, but then once I had it set on my netowrk, I switched over to the WebUI. I added a new admin user and some cams. When I went back in later, it wouldn't take the new username/password or the changed admin password. I was still in the HDMI session, but it wouldn't let me do anything either other than looking at the live views. I had to have Amcrest send me a code to reset the admin password. Apparently switching to the WebUI before I had completed the setup messed things up. Lesson learned.
