Looking good, nice to see BMW stepping up on the interiors.

You intend on painting the calipers Sakhir?

Painted calipers
 

Yes, already lined up for later this month.

Can't wait to se that. I like the Silverstone/Sakhir combo. I always thought the mineral grey was the best color for the Sakhir but the this is very nice as well.

Like the red and black interior. Great looking car.

Nice! Great transmission choice ;)

Transmission choice
 

Would I be posting here otherwise??! Always had MTs on my performance cars. Autos are okay for SUVs.

Congrats!!! Very nice :cool:

One other rear view; wish I'd gotten some fronts here:

Beautiful car...would like to hear your thoughts after 1200 miles service :)
Glad you went with the manual. Wonder how much better it is than e90 m3 manual...I find it doesn't have the best feel and shift throw is quite long

Haven't had a chance to drive in anger since 1,200 last week. Manual is definitely better than the E92's - that one was extremely notchy until 10k or so. This one is smooth (the carbon lined synchros probably help), but throws are still a little long. The auto rev match on downshift I could do without, but it's not too bothersome.

I have been reading your post since you got the other M3, good to hear you like the new one. I am still on the fence.....drove the demo at my dealer and it definitely pulls hard.....


Congrats to you!

Greg - congrats on the new M3 - love the color.

love the color... so is silverstone more blue or more silver?
