2009 BMW M3 Sedan: You Write the Caption

bmw-m3-sedan-555.jpg

Scott took this picture around the Fourth of July. Don't worry he didn't buy any illegal fireworks. The store was closed.

We suggest "Smoke M If You Got M"

There's plenty of room on this photo, so have at it.

We'll post our favorite at 4PM Pacific Time.

M3 stocks up on nitroglycerin for fuel.
A gross violation of fire code to have so much explosives so close.
Pull over here. I'm going to improve the exhaust crackle at gearshift.
