It's nice to see a build like this not get littered with statements about damaged resale values, etc. etc........I guess people CAN live a little.
I def was a little bit hesitant about the color combo when i placed the order and considered going the safer route (black int). But then i thought, f it. my previous bmw (e46 m3) was topaz w/ black int so i might as well change it up. Absolutely no regrets.. i love it!

btw phoenix w/ red looked great imo. The oddest for me was phoenix w/ laguna.

Whatever my next car is, the damn thing is going to have to have a red interior...I did not get imola in my E46 M3, did not get Fox Red in my E92 M3 - my next damn car is going to have some kinda red inside!

ps - what wheel size are you running? 18" or 19" ?
