Ordered: M3 Austin Yellow
Hey everyone,
Thought I would give the AU forum some attention. So last weekend I placed an order for a Jan 2015 build M3 in Austin Yellow. Ever since I first saw the E46 M3 launch I've wanted a yellow M3 and have been working up to it ever since! To finally sign that contract last Sunday was pretty surreal. My M135i is only 2 years old next month so wasn't in an immediate hurry so decided on a Jan 2015 build considering we're nearly there. Patients isn't a strong point so no idea how I'm going to last until mid-late April!!! Ugh. I never go for any dealer upsell product so passed on the official paint/leather protection just out of principle (especially for $2500!), however considering aftermarket to keep the AY looking amazing. Does anyone have options and idea what it's are worth? Greg

Congrats Greg. I love the AY on the M3 (much more than M4) and if I had seen one before I ordered my car I may very well have gone AY instead of YMB although I do like the YMB as well.
I don't know how much those protection packs are worth but I never keep my cars long so I don't bother with them. But I would prefer to take it to somewhere like Final Inspection (if in Melb) to get them to treat it. |

I don't usually keep cars beyond 3-4 years but even after a few months I've had door and trolley nicks on the doors of my last two cars
