I love that colour. Our 335d xdrive is nippy enough so can only imagine how good the M3 is.

Yeah the colour is great - is that it on delivery truck, or a very wonky garage floor

Came on a covered trailer.

Finding a few little niceties - totally inane, but nice touches.
For eg, there are 4 interior lights and only one comes on when you open the corresponding door.

The M badges in the seats also light up...




Few more pics



Nice bit of carbon...



Also got carbon interior trim which really does look well made.
(But no pic)

Bloody nice that, the colour suits it well and some if the details are great.... Subaru need to take a look at that to see how aesthetic design works.

I think that's way out of Subaru's reach to even bother. BM is in a different league

I had a 02 m3 smg as a daily for 8 weeks which i sold a couple of months ago. I really wanted to love it when i bought it but my 100% personal opinion of it after about 2 weeks of ownership was the biggest bag of **** that i have ever driven and ive driven some bags of **** in my time. I absolutely loathed it when i sold it mainly from such great expectations from hearing people banging on about how great they are. Im sure the these new ones are so much better or i would hope so anyway. **** i was dissapointed with it.

Nice

If it wasn't for the badge on the back, I'd have sworn it was a 335d M-sport.

Which of course is a good thing in my view.
Can't stand these ostentatious 'look at me' sports cars.

A few years ago this would of been a supercar, what a thing.

What does the M4 have that the M3 doesn't? I can't see why anyone would buy the M4, it looks too long IMO, the M3 is just right.

Isn't this the sort of post the 'cool story bro' pics were made for. Not really relevant is it It does hold interest with me though as I've always fancied an E46, but do suspect I'd be rather underwhelmed.
