KillerKhan · 12-14-2017, 04:58 PM

Hello, all guys.

Waiting for this one... should be available next week

in the meantime, I have already got the rims to swap (8.5Jx19 front and 9.0Jx19 rear)

and decided the color to paint them

Let's see what happens

Oh, btw... here follows the VIN decoding

Congrats. Estoril is not a subtle color, but it's beautiful and mine gets comments everywhere.

You'll enjoy that ride.

CJ421 · 12-15-2017, 07:20 AM

I love that interior. Please post pics when it arrives.

Thx, mate.
I have been doubtful for long, with wifey pushing for the Tansanian blue... but, well, I pulled the trigger for a better statement!
I hope mine will get as positive comments as yours!

Me too... I accepted a longer delivery time to have this couple of BMW Individual interior Merino goldbraun leather and rotbraun sycamore wood.
Never seen it from real: i keep my fingers crossed it will look cool.

These 2 more are from the online configurator:

Great combo, I have seen the leather, it’s gorgeous and I think that trim will work better than the piano black trim I saw it with. Congrats!!

KillerKhan · 12-18-2017, 01:47 PM

in the meantime, I had the rims painted...

and the matching center caps

Good looking rims for a great looking car!

NBMW30 · 12-19-2017, 12:43 AM

What are you going to do with the 19s that are coming on it?

I will put them in a carton box, then all together on a pallet in the company warehouse... waiting to be mounted back on the car at the end of the long-term rental (it's a company car).

KillerKhan · 12-21-2017, 10:35 AM

These came today from the Service Center where it has been prepared for the delivery...

The winter tyres did not arrive yet so the rims are still the stock ones.
We will see what happens till sat morning...

Kwando · 12-21-2017, 10:44 AM

Great combo!

.BMW. · 12-21-2017, 01:58 PM

The wheels looks great in the new color!

Style 641 winter wheels for F80/F82?

yeah, exactly
We manufacture those wheel for the BMW Winteraktion but in light grey.
With a dark, very metallic grey they have a totally different look.
I hope they will fit the car nicely...

Ibo24 · 12-22-2017, 06:13 AM

Really nice car!

KillerKhan · 12-26-2017, 02:40 PM

Thank you all guys.
Last sat Dec 23rd I picked the car up and so the initial phase is finished!

Some quick shot ...

Waiting for the delivery

and the first stop in a motorway service area

Maybe now I should open a new thread, something like "My new F36..."

KillerKhan · 12-29-2017, 02:54 AM

First parking lot

DrifterX · 12-29-2017, 11:43 AM

Congratulations on a beautifully spec'd GC!

Great choice of wheels and colour - I have matte black winter wheels and they're not a good contrast against Estoril Blue. Will definitely look into a different colour for next year.

KillerKhan · 01-01-2018, 01:08 PM

I had the chance to shoot some pics at last, while waiting for wifey...

in a few days I should receive the rear spoiler and the rear extractor in blue and carbon... and a few days later the front and side blades.
I guess it happens so I can close the mods

Some quick internal shots too:

IAmATeaf · 01-01-2018, 01:53 PM

What’s the difference in between the rims, they look very similar to me so wondering why you went out and got another set that look the same? Or is it that as it’s a lease car you’re not allowed to paint them?

The rims are the M4 rims: they have a different design (mainly thinner spokes) and different rim width (these are 8.5Jx19 front and 9.0Jx19 rear).
And yes, I'm not allowed to paint the stock rims since I will have to mount them on when I return the car at the lease end.
