M3 ordered...

gtsussex · 11-27-2015, 03:21 AM

Well I've been lurking around here long enough and live on the F30 forum but thought should say hi properly.

Finally bit the bullet and ordered M3 yesterday. At the moment, the order is Mineral White and Full Black Leather but still deciding whether to go for Individual San Merino Blue and Silverstone... Never before have I found it so hard to work out which colour to go for!

Not taking delivery until March as happy to keep my 335d for the winter. So now the wait starts.......

Why the switch, your derv burner must be quick enough for uk use?.

Scratch that had to be itched I suppose. Fancied something a bit more 'fun'.

Congratulations you will love it... I am on my second one

Yeah you are in for a treat, congratulations!

Odd colour dilemma though, white and black is almost a bit boring and certainly common, whilst San Marino with Silverstone will just ooooze class, but also turn plenty of heads.

It's an easy decision

Swapped my 435d for an M4 now every drive makes me smile. Join the fun!

You're quite right. Have changed to SM blue with full silverstone. Just needed to sleep on it

AdamW · 11-30-2015, 07:40 AM

SMB looks stunning. 100% go for that! no question

Well done on final choice of colours. 435d maybe quick but cmon it's no m3 . Plus it's a diesel, no need to listen to music in the m3 . The exhaust note is all you need .
