In the US, we get the "Panic" button... set the car alarm on to call for attentions in case of any emergency...

thief/robery/pursuants/female attacker etc etc...

or just to find your car in the parking lot when you are just about 20 feet away but cant see it...

Holy s*@# batman! Awesome looking ride

The more I see the F30, the more I like. What I don't like is my E92 looking outdated.

mob17 · 08-08-2012, 06:31 PM

I want to lick that lovely coloured paintwork....

Enilder · 08-08-2012, 07:29 PM

i agree. saw a guy outside my office today sitting in an F30 "luxury" line. And it just seems like the F30 has a better stance, like it perceptually looks wider or lower or both. i really do like that aspect of it. and the m-sport really makes it look great.

Picking mine up Saturday when I get back in town.

t-deL88 · 08-09-2012, 02:46 PM

Can the OP or someone else who has just taken delivery of an msport speak to the iDrive version installed in the car... is it still the old model and will we have to truly wait until November production for the new one? Thanks

I LOVE how EBII looks on a cloudy day. Perhaps it is just the camera exposure, but it tends to look a little too light blue in direct sun. It tends to go between AMAZING and some concern for me. White and Silver are the safer choices. I hope to see an EBII F30 in real life in the next few days. Dealer is going to call me.

I have the same issue with some reds. Colors like red and blue can get so much lighter in direct sun, often to a fault. I had an '02 A4 in red that was a nice deep, rich red, until the sun came out and the orange hues with it... Too bright. Hoping I like Melbourne Red or EBII in all lighting...

I'm guessing that was Amulet red?

chrisny · 08-22-2012, 01:48 PM

Yup. Loved it on cloudy days, hated it on sunny days. Where was the damn sun before I bought it lol

Fugly M3 · 08-22-2012, 01:55 PM
