Have a couple of pics. Wonder if you can guess from the first picture?

Looks freshly landed with not much prep. JDM square plate dirt/dust still on the car. Needs a proper deep clean. Front end heavily stone chipped and the front lower carbon splitter had lots of chips/flaking lacquer.
IMO, blue does nothing for me on this. I’d passed it once thinking it was just an E92. Only on a second glance did I really notice what it actually was.

Might need a bit of tidying but that's a mega spot. Where were you?

E92 LCI B3 GT3 #013

Post by Bob » Sun May 01, 2022 9:16 pm

Very cool spot, I'm 99% sure that's #013 which was spotted being collected off the boat at the end of March.

Must be in with a shout of being the highest mileage GT3 at 165k kms

Local monthly meet at Wrightington. In good company.

Looks like it with regards to its first MOT. Lovely interior in it. Carbon trimmed Akrapovic exhaust too.

Can't help assuming that it's no longer sporting the factory-spec KW Coilovers given the advisory and the lead times on ALPINA parts currently. The interior and carbon exhaust are stock GT3 setup. 8)

Still on the coilovers. I had a look under the arch to see if it had them. They didn’t look new either so might have had a wipe clean for the re-test!

Is that Wrightington near Wigan, where/when is that one please, I’m only round the corner in Bolton?
It would be good two B3 e92s together albeit my lowly B3 BiTurbo

Thanks

It is. Monthly meet at the Corner House. It’s moving next month to Charity Farm, just round the corner. Next date will be the 12th June. I think the owner is local too. Sure he came with the guy in the 964 who is also local.
