Malachite Green G80 M3 and Owner Intro
So, having been a member of this group for a year, i feel its time to introduce myself, my car, my previous cars and how i became a petrolhead. If you dont want to read a loooong story, than you will find some pictures at the end.
It all started when i was 4-5 years old, my father was a car mechanic and our garden was always full of cars and i had the opportunity to sit in all kinds of vehicles. The first sports car that i can rember was a black mk3 toyota supra. We never had powerfull cars but i can clearly rember when my father bought a green mk1 gtd golf with black interior, in wich later my 10 years older brother replaced the entire interior with brown, it was a beauty.
The first time when i was infected with Bmw love was around 1997-98 (i was 10 years old), when a friend of my brother bought an e36 325i and took me for a drive, later he did the same thing with an e36 M3. Then i knew that one day i would have an m3, so the years passed, i finished school, then universitiy, i spent a lot of time browsing mobile.de(the most known online used car market), and i dreamed about cars, this dreaming helped me a lot at university during difficult times when i felt like i was going to quit learning but i knew that learning is the only way to achieve my dreams. So i graduated from university, i started working, bought an e90 330d, than a z4 2.5i, after four years i bought my first M car, a used mineral grey f80 M3 manual wich i loved a lot, made with this car some mountain trips to austria to the Grossglockner, we drove with my father in Romania on the Transfagarasan mountain road wich is a beatyful memory but i needed to sell the car after 1.5 years because my son was born and needed money for a bigger house. The next two years i owned a vw golf mk5 r32 wich i bought because i needed a good sounding vehicle, in this car my son experienced what a special car with big engine is like and he loved it and now he is 5 years old and a real petrolhead, than i sold the R32 for my vw enthusiast brother and finally i bought again an M car, the wonderful f87 m2 competiton in sunset orange. Did some trips again, 3 times on the Grossglockner, once in Italy in the Dolomites with family and than i felt that the time had come to order the car of my dreams, in the same spec as my fathers first German car, the mk1 golf in green and brown. The spec is individual Malachite Green with full tartufo leather, black brake calipers and 826 m bicolor wheels. I placed the order in June 2023 and i took delivery on December 15th, finally my old dream came true, i couldnt be happier with the car, since delivery i drove 5000km-s, next month we will make a family roadtrip to the Dolomites, wich i will also make a post about, in august Grossglockner again, maybe in september a trackday and this car will not be a garage queen with low mileage, i want to
Collect as many memories as possible with as many mountain trips as possible with this car and with my family.
Thank you for reading my long story and sorry for my bad english. If you are interested, you can find me on instagram, with louderthanschnell nickname.
Thank you for beeing a member of this group and community!
