JG_Coupe88 · 08-17-2018, 08:02 PM

Congrats OP what a find!

glimmer · 08-18-2018, 12:07 AM

It will be my first BMW too. 2018 430i drive Gran Coupe. I'm really stoked! Also this is my first post!

Noelified · 08-18-2018, 12:29 AM

Congrats and Welcome!
Regardless what Blue it is...wow shes beautiful. I think those may be my favorite wheels now. Only thing I'd change is to black bimmerangs. Otherwise perfect. Happy for you bro.

kssxs · 08-18-2018, 12:52 AM

Wow, thank you ALL! What a welcome to the forums! Seriously, a person couldn't ask for a more warm way to become part of a larger community...

.

And, as I found out earlier today, you're ALL right... it's not Estoril blue... guess the used car dealer had it listed wrong, so what did I know, lol. It's confirmed to be Santorini blue, and as one of you mentioned, a more rare blue in this car!

Oh, and forgot to mention, it's an automatic. This is only the 3rd car in my life, and the previous 2 were stick.. now... getting older, a bit lazier, wanna chill and drive, so went with the auto

.

I've updated my sig, lol. I'll try to get some more pics up in the next couple of days. Good sunny weather for it!

Thanks again guys! Looking forward to being a part of this great group of owners!

That thing is so sick. Congrats!

Florida_Pete · 08-18-2018, 07:57 AM

Nice work...congrats on your new ride! Same story here, I just got my first BMW, 2015 435i GC M Sport - buying it off lease made a lot of sense. This is ALSO my 1st post!

So, in less than 12 hours, I'll be the proud new owner of a 2015 Estoril Blue 435i...

I've waited for this day, literally, for 3 years, and can't believe that I've finally got one!

Found a fantastic deal on a no-accidents, clean record, fully loaded RWD BEAUTIFUL car with only 20300 KM (12614 miles) on it. I'll be picking up an extended warranty from BMW Protect on the drive home, just to cover any potential future issues, but a BMW inspection came back clean as well.

I've also already ordered a key fob protector, and a BlueTooth OBD adapter for use with BimmerCode. Can't wait to get coding!

Don't know how well I'll sleep tonight...

fast off the starting block as an owner..
20" wheels too

jh_f30 · 08-18-2018, 05:38 PM

Welcome and congrats! Color is dope, personally I prefer it to the Estoril.

FBMWWINS · 08-18-2018, 05:40 PM

Nice ride there!

Those M Performance 624 Styling rims absolutely fit. It's not Estoril but Santorini which is also a very nice and popular blue by BMW. Congrats on the overall choice and enjoy.

tomtendo · 08-18-2018, 07:44 PM

Picked up my first BMW today. A lightly used 2015 335i .. Love it. Coming from the Lexus IS350 F Sport.

Julianarnouk · 08-18-2018, 08:16 PM

kssxs · 08-20-2018, 02:31 AM

Awesome looking ride. Welcome to the community. I think, it just needs black fender gills for a more aggressive look.

.BMW. · 08-21-2018, 05:14 AM

Looks great!

The Santorini Blue is perfect on your F32.

BigJack75 · 08-31-2018, 05:29 PM
