Hi guys,

Wondering if someone here drives the above mentioned config.

A pic or two would be really nice to see.

I m confused between coral red or black interior. Opinions?
So looking forward to ordering my next car.

Appreciate any pics

Thanks, this looks awesome. Good shot and composition too.

What interior color do you have on your car?

Now for me it is bit of a decision on the interior color on the Msport. Coral Red or Black

Just to add more pics to this thread, found another thread with 19" wheels and M-sport MG. just googling

I went with a black interior, as my '09 had a red interior. I loved it, but it was just too flashy for me, especially w/ a silver exterior.

I think I'm just too old to be getting red interiors at this point in my life...
(it is a nice contrast to the MG exterior though)

Anyway, you should also consider Everest Grey leather, as the contrast with Mineral is beautiful.

I really wanted a subdued exterior color, as I'm very conservative, and quite frankly, I don't like to stand out. That's the beautiful thing about a MG exterior, when it's clean and in the sunlight, it has an incredible depth and richness to the color, and when overcast, it's just a very tasteful and subtle color that shows the lines of the F30 beautifully.

A couple more pics (they don't do the color justice unfortunately!)

Its a beautiful color! I did the matte black kidney grills (plasti dip) and it really adds a mean look to it and takes some attention away from the chrome. Are you considering any mods?

I really like how the 19's look on these cars. With wider tires and a lower sidewall profile, I think they can pop even more.

Thanks for more pics. Beautiful car, with the 19" wheels.


I wish they would have Everest Grey on the M-sport. That is the color combo advertised by BMW in some of the promos in the luxury line. I am pretty sure it will look very sharp even in M-sport line, though arguably a little boring perhaps.

So much for the lines, options are reduced.

In your experience, is the ride any harsher than say 17" or 18" wheels and RFTs? That is one of my concerns though I love the 19" 403M wheel design. Thanks again for the info.

Funny you asked that question.

The one thing that AMAZED me about my F30 on 19's and RF's, is how amazingly well it rides. I'm on Goodyears too (interestingly, there made in Germany).

My car rides at least as well as my e90 Msport on 18" RF's, if not better. I'm running the passive suspension too.

My hats off to BMW chassis engineers, as the roads in Detroit are horrific, and the ride is NOWHERE near harsh, at anytime. Truly brilliant chassis tuning; perfect combination of ride and handling for a daily driver...the car feels like a bank vault as well...incredible rigidity.

I could not agree more. I went form an e90 335I sport and on RFT that thing rode hard. I had the RFT's on the F30 and the ride was pretty good. I then bought a set of 403m's from a member and decided to ditch the RFT's for General GMax all seasons. I can tell you the car rides even better. Almost no road noise which I felt the RFT's did produce a little to much road noise. But I have to say that MG color is really nice. One of the best BMW colors.

403M are one of the most beautiful OEM wheels i've ever seen

I agree. I do wish they had a bit more depth, but otherwise like them.
