My '17 ZCP Individual Atlantis Metallic F80 M3

AhsanU · 10-31-2016, 12:07 AM

New pics on post #25!

I traded my old E46 M3 for a 2015 335i xDrive early this year, around February. The E46 was plagued with reliability issues, and an SMG gearbox ('nuff said)

I thought the 335i would make a fine DD and I would then start to save up for a weekend car, most likely a Porsche 911 or something similar. However, the 335i just did not suit me, and was not fun to drive in the slightest. Every time I drove it, I felt empty. So I traded it in for this beautiful F80 M3 in Atlantis Metallic with Silverstone full interior.

Options include: ZCP, DCT, Executive package, LED's, moonroof (omg!)

I've got mods for her already, but time is scarce so I'll be installing them in a week or so

I'll update this thread as I receive more mods. I can't wait to get 1200 miles over with so I can actually push her!

Enjoy

Beautiful color! How was Bayside BMW? They give you a good deal?

Colinv6 · 10-31-2016, 03:48 AM

Incredible! I really feel like taking the plunge on an Atlantis.

I'd have to stick with the 19's though!

congrats, beautiful ride!

enjoy that sunroof as it's a rarity

Aztecspec · 10-31-2016, 09:17 AM

Looks amazing! Which is good since I've ordered pretty much the same car, but with some carbon bits and the carbon roof. Delivery early next year.

BrooklynG87 · 10-31-2016, 10:22 AM

Wow this has to be my favorite color! So gorgeous. I hope I see you around NY!

bonsta101 · 10-31-2016, 10:56 AM

remmib · 10-31-2016, 01:05 PM

Congrats, looks like such a gorgeous color. I'd love to see this color in real life.

Danchiiik · 10-31-2016, 01:20 PM

sick color! congratss!!

why moonroof though?

doberzus · 10-31-2016, 01:44 PM

Color is ugly, and car is ok... I guess.

Congrats, she's a beauty! Color looks so much more lush and vibrant in person.

AhsanU · 10-31-2016, 03:39 PM

Thanks for the kind words guys! The colour is just amazing in every sense of the word. In direct sunlight, you definitely notice a tinge of green on the paint. It's gorgeous.

Bayside treated me very well - as they should since I've been buying BMW's from them since 2003 haha. But they didn't give me much of a deal on the actual M3 per se, but they gave me a very generous offer on the 335i I traded in. I racked up quite a few miles on the car and they pretty much gave me almost what I paid for it. If anyone is in the tristate area, my SA's name is Michael D'Urso. He's a great guy that literally was on top of the order and was with me every step of the process. Definitely look for him if you're looking for excellent service.

I took the plunge and am glad I did! The 4 month wait wasn't so bad honestly, especially since I waited about 7 months for my old E46 M3. But the style 666M wheels really look good on the F80 IMO. With a drop, and maybe some spacers - it's definitely a looker. I'm already going for 19's because the roads around here (NYC) will eventually demolish these beautiful 20's. Plus, there are stickier tyre options if you go for 19's, so there's that too

Enjoy her! This car looks gorgeous with carbon bits and bobs, as dubsesd has clearly demonstrated.

You too brother! I haven't actually been in Brooklyn in about 10 years, but who knows!

I'm usually around the Bronx and Queens.

Moonroof was a bit of a tough choice, but I ultimately couldn't not tick the option. I like the look of carbon fiber, but simply enjoy a moonroof more. I'm not the type of driver that will notice the extra weight from the moonroof, plus the family loves it! So it's a win win situation really.

Lmao! Yeah it's okay.. I'm sure your car colour is okay too. Nothing too special

Hope you're enjoying your car too brother!

Really great color combo!

Also a nice Tesla hiding in the background.
