I like it a lot. I love my AW, but there are so many of them. Your color (sorry) is a nice change from the ordinary.

Looks awesome dude! Cant wait to see it in person around town!

What do they call that colour?

ahero4eternity · 09-11-2015, 10:02 AM

Love that color.

Jimminez · 09-11-2015, 01:55 PM

Great colour for sure. I've only seen it on M3/M4s so very unique for the F30.

aleeann · 09-11-2015, 01:57 PM

Well done - great color!

The colour on the build sheet is called Grey Black Metallic. I cannot see the metallic flake in it as it certainly looks like a flat colour to me. My other option was Suzuka Grey which is white with a touch of violet in it. I have never seen either colour before as they are BMW Individual paints.

CHCCubs · 09-11-2015, 06:07 PM

Amazing colour

mjf2k · 09-12-2015, 10:30 AM

Looks great!

Tsilly · 09-12-2015, 10:31 AM

+1 that colours bad ass.

The Reverend · 09-12-2015, 12:34 PM

I am a big fan of those wheels too. Great looking vehicle.

YYC Bimmer Driver · 09-13-2015, 02:28 PM

Thank-you everyone. I am having a ball with this car.

DG335 · 09-14-2015, 09:24 AM

Colour looks awesome - very similar to Nardo grey from Audi. Really shows off the black/carbon accents on your car. Beauty

eddy403 · 09-18-2015, 11:40 PM

Congrats very unique. Cheers

E30toF30 · 09-19-2015, 01:21 AM

Awesome! Another m performance edition! I'm still having a blast with mine too.

Is this a 2015? I'm confused these days cause when I bought my 2015 in March there was no Suzuka grey or this colour as an option. And the wheels are 624 wheels.

But them I'm coming across some mid/late 2015 m performance edition cars coming in these colours and some with 405 wheels and some with 624. And also some with carbon exhaust tips?

Very confusing

There seems to have been a second wave of M Perf 335's built by BMW Canada from what I understand. On my invoice it states colour as "Grey Black Metallic with Z7H (phase 2 only)". The Suzuka Grey and the Grey Black were only available in the later March 2015 builds. I think Phase I was a December/January build. My car has the carbon exhaust tips. I am surprised you do not as I thought they came standard with the M Perf. exhaust.

skoTner · 09-21-2015, 02:30 PM

Awesome car! Is that the standard M Performance rear diffuser?

F87_LCI · 09-23-2015, 04:37 PM

Nice car. Congrats.

Nice car choice. I too got a 2015 335i M Performance Edition (Phase 2) Suzuka Grey. I'm waiting on the delivery sometime in October. I hope I get the Carbon Fibre Exhaust tip covers like yours. I opted on getting the carbon fibre spoiler instead of the painted version. The carbon fibre on white really stands out to me. I am also considering the carbon fibre mirror caps. They're kinda pricey though. $450 each mirror. I like the 20" 405 M style rims. I'm so happy they didn't put the 624" M style rims on the 3 series performance edition. Those rims are fugly!

Sorry E30toF30. Honestly they're just not my taste. No disrespect

Congrats on your car. Love the paint job!

Orjan · 09-30-2015, 03:47 AM

Congrats with a beautiful car! And the color is amazing - I believe it's a Porsche color, same as the 50th anniversary edition.
