If you honeslty got an M3 though, WOULD YOU actually get purple...It seems cool and all...but I don't know If I could drive around in one.

Like Crazy said, that wasn't BlueWaterEU that you posted.

And Good Gully...loook who's back....

Estoril Blue is very yummy too.

Red interior isnt considered speical order this year is it? I say save your money and just get carbon black with red interior. Used that 2k for coils and toward rims.

What interior is special order?

And I'm with Crazy, I would save the 2K, it'd be cool to get a custom paint and all, but German paint is German paint, I would save the money.

The color is Bluewater, I don't know what the hell BlueWaterEU is.....never heard of it.

Also, if you choose a Metallic color its an additional $475. If you choose a custom color, the cost is $2k. So you're paying $1525 more to be exclusive.

Sounds like a good deal to me.

You can get a 2-tone interior at extra cost. I also think its about $2k, that I wouldn't pay.

Beltfed,

You have sold me on techno violet. I even made my girlfreind look at it. This makes me want an M3 even more.
Damn....i don't think my income as a resident is going to cut it....

Carbon black is almost an extremely dark blue in bright sunlight.

Each is own, but I think its kind of boring for an M3.....My buddy had a CB 02 M3 for about 6 months before he traded it for a 996.


Loseit, keep plugging away, you'll get an ///M eventually if you really want it (one way or the other).

I can make it 100% for u...

My buddy ordered a silverstone. w/ his permission, BMW changed it to Bluewater....no big deal........until.....after waiting like 6 months it comes, but w/o a navi (dealer fucked up). So after another month of waiting he is driving a silver (boring) M3 w/ free 19's, and installed alarm courtesy of dealer. still hot tho

It's really dark blue if you see it in person at very close distance.

Kevin, you have an M3? I have a few questions about it for you. Where is the redline on tach, does it only show when the car is on? And with SMG, can you stay on the gas while shifting or do you have to let off like a regular clutch.

Also, Where in PA are you?

Techno Violet on red interior would be hideous.

Whoa ... sorry for the late reply, I hang out mostly on www.m3forum.com.

Anyways, the redline (light) starts at 8K.

As for SMG, do a search on it on www.m3forum.com, I've posted almost countless experiences and tricks on the SMG already. Don't want to repeat it again.

I think you're going to end up with another 330 coupe......at least the front looks a bit different from what you had.
