Im yet to see a black M3 in person, looks great in pictures.

IM2C · 10-16-2015, 09:31 PM

Love BSM. Love it so much my last 4 BMWs were black. This time around I ordered AW. I'm half excited and half scared. This post doesn't help.

my last 2 cars had been jet black, when I was ordering mine I had a hard time debating between the MW and BSM. At the end I still ended up with the black.

My deal wasn't bad. I've been servicing my car at new century for many years but never thought I would get a car from them since they don't have good reputation. Most of their sales will try to rip customers off. When we were shopping for my fiancee's F30 we searched many dealerships. My SA at New century introduced me to their fleet manager. Unlike the sales that worked there, he doesn't play games. He's honest and up front on the pricing. We ended up getting the F30 in August and ordered my M3 with him. I highly recommend him!

(Almost) Exactly the same build as mine except I did not have the balls to with red orange interior. Instead went with my second choice - black. I m getting my car on 10/29, PDC

The main reasons I chose AW were scorching Florida sun and cf roof.
BSM is pure badassery.

My last 2 cars were both black on black. During the summer times it gets really hot so I thought I would try something different. I'm afraid Silverstone may get dirty easily so I went with the sakhir orange...pictures from other forum members and instagram looks pretty nice. Still trying to get used to the sakhir orange...Congrats on your car!

I feel you man! It gets really hot during the summer time in socal. When i get off work usually its like 100 degrees. My last car was black on black and it feels even hotter....so i thought i would try a different interior color this time

shigeru · 10-18-2015, 11:12 PM

Love the color but of course I'm partial. What are your first planned mods?

dkhm3 · 10-19-2015, 12:14 AM

congrats... love the black and red combo!

ooo just noticed black wheels too!

very dark and sinister car!

Use the remote app to pre-ventilate your car before you get in

I did set up the pre-ventilate timer on my previous car, but when the car gets older specially when the battery is about to fail, it didn't work properly....but yea I'll be trying the remote app when it gets hot again

I'm not sure, there's too many things I want to do, maybe the M performance black kidney grills, black side gills, and black out the reflectors first, then start to add more M performance parts later like the front splitter,lips, rear spoiler, diffuser, mirror cap, and exhaust on the exterior. Interior I'll do the carbon console, lever, maybe hand break, and steering wheel...we shall see!

Congrats, awesome car

AYF80 · 10-19-2015, 12:24 PM

Looks sick. I love my AY, but I think I'll get Black next.

eRiggs5 · 10-19-2015, 07:32 PM

Looks amazing! LOVE black!

psuibmw · 10-20-2015, 05:53 PM

Looks really good BSM with SO is a nice combo
