Yes I meant M3, I didn't even notice the 4 doors, saw the boomerang and just assumed 4 series.

Yes. I did 3m vinyl on the roof. It makes the car looks much cleaner and lower. F80 in frozen white will be nice! There are some pics on the Internet of it. Btw, I washed it and waxed it for the first time last night. Lot is a strange feeling. The more you wax, the more matte it gets. Also, the dirt comes off easier than I thought. Only tricky part is that I have to remember where to use the shinny wax and where for the matte wax.

That garage pic is such a tease, I don't know what to think.

Hey folks look at this picture of my pretty wife, oh, and pay not attention to Scarlett Johnansson in the background.

Hey. Some days I am more excited to drive the BMW over the red car. Actually, most days. It is more practical, and just as fun to drive! I really loved it. It's a family car, a sport car if I want it to be, and I can drive it 365 days a year!

Whats a M3/4 if you already have a Ferrari

Op needed something more practical for DD

[shivaswrath]

that's a good pairing in your garage, a 360 and a 335i!

Regarding the order, yeah. First one came in alpine white, second one came in black. Then they have to find one in Ontario, trade with the dealership, and modify from it. But led headlight is not something that can be retrofit. I know, I go to the dealership and check every second week too. They were picking cars off the assembly line to modify the order, but the person that put in the order put it in the comment and the factory didn't pick it up. I Was told that the ordering system in Canada is still dos based, so pretty hard to use. And is full of bugs. So after missing two orders, I was told that I have to wait until 2016 to get my order fulfilled. So I compromised and took the one in Ontario w/o led headlight and park assist. But at least I have the car this summer!!!

great job man! nice ride! I get my 435 xdrive instead of my initial intend to purchase a M4 since the first winter here just scar the hell out of me. I agree with you that this probably is the car as close as a M3/4 you can drive in all season.

btw, didn't realize there is a frozen white for f30/32. I thought brilliant white would look same as mineral white

nice one bro

[pkkyeung]

That's what I thought too. But my Dealership told me that mineral white is slightly darker. Also, mineral white use flat pieces of flakes, while frozen while brillant white used round pallets, to give it the matte look, but also the fact that it is round, it has the ability to reflect more spectrum of lights, which gives it a pearl look.

Now don't quote me for this. It is just what I was told. Thanks for the complement!

Here is a few more pics with the lip added.

Love the lip. It's a lot more subtle and doesn't scream "HEY LOOK AT ME I ADDED A LIP" like I feel the M Performance one does.

This. Tell us how it is! I haven't seen many people do Dinan on top of MPPK and (what looks to be) MPPE.

[pkkyeung]

Well. The car just passed 2000km, so taking her up there slowly. At first, it didn't feel that much quicker than my old 335. And I even called the dinan dealer to ask if I launch properly. There seems to be this extra inch of travel with the gas Pedal before it floors. But when ever I floored it, the car seems to lag a little bit before it launches off. Dealer said the car is still learning, so it is compensating. After a few more days of driving, I am begining to notice that the car is quicker and faster by the day. ��

Shhhh. Don't say that too loud. There are some E90 lurkers on this forum that insist that the F30 is crap and BMW has lost its way. For a 430 F1 owner to make comments like this does not fit their agenda.

Seriously, congratulations on the new car. It looks amazing. I, too, didn't notice it was 4 doors when I first looked at the photo. I'm pretty sure that's what BMW had in mind and it's working for sure.

The OP posts photos of one of the nicest F3x's yet and this is your comment? I think we all know that the Ferrari is an expensive brand. More than likely the Farrari brand you mention is even more expensive since it's so rare.


Anyway, there is not necessarily a correlation between a person's assets and value of the car they drive. This is especially true with the popularity of personal leases. Some people are driving nice cars and don't have a pot to piss in while others could pay cash for any car they want and choose to drive a 3 series. You really can't tell by looking.
