There is a black one with red leather interior on the local dealers. I love the way the seats have the gaps in the backrest.

Looks great Darren, I replaced my spec C in Jan with a new M3 too (no CP).


I know how a lot of people on here feel about the whole BMW thing, but it is a very rewarding car to drive. The next 1200 miles are gonna drag until the RIS so you can give it the full beans.

Thanks chaps for the kind words I really pleased with it and prefer it to the R35 I had in 2012. The turn in on the M3 is amazing but it ain't no S204 down a damp lane!

How would you compare this to the gtr, I love the aggressive looks of the m4 and feel the car has a lot of character.

Tbh never really fell in love with the GTR, it felt heavy and tended to under steer a lot. My disappointment in the R35 was the reason I test drove an Impreza and they were night and day, a decent powered well set up subaru will leave a GTR behind down a twisty B road end of. I still own 2 spec C and race/sprint them when I can. I purchased a M135i 18 months ago and enjoyed it but the wife ended up with it. No hair dressers jokes please.. When I bought the M135i nearly 2 years ago now I test drove the M4 and was disappointed again. It didn't feel agile at all and felt very twitchy so I chose the M135 as it felt more agile and light. So when I heard about the M3 competition pack I thought I'd give it a go and was expecting to hate it again but I was amazed, it was night and day the difference. I was blown away with its agility and poise and the way it turns in shocked me. So I was sold on the car car, I test drove a red one one the Friday and picked the white one up Tuesday afternoon! I loved it that much, oh the wife was a bit gutted as I part exed the M1 it's a great car
