Limited Edition 2011 BMW Frozen Gray M3 Coupe announced (full details and photos)!

Kinzer S13GT · 06-17-2010, 05:19 PM

..Oh its "LIMITED" alright! Limited dick!
They adopted Audi's S interior, and forgot to finish painting it....!! RIGHT!!!
LMAO!! They could have at least made it a ZCP, with upgraded brakes, and special tune!
They could afford to do that at a low production of 30 FRIKIN UNITS!!! WTF!!

Kinzer S13GT · 06-17-2010, 05:28 PM

"WILL SOMEONE GET THE BEAN-COUNTERS OUT OF THE DESIGN ROOM PLEASE!!!"
A reprogrammed map of the buttons on my center console...
DOES NOT MAKE FOR A "COMPETITION EDITION"!!!

...BMW will never completely let loose the reigns on their production design engineers.
Sucks!

Officer0wnage · 06-17-2010, 05:30 PM

Cant believe there is no 6-speed manual option. And thirty for the entire country??? good luck getting one of those

aCP · 06-17-2010, 05:40 PM

this really sucks. looks similar to S4 interior color. meh.

donovan · 06-17-2010, 05:41 PM

Not one thing excites me about that.

Nautik · 06-17-2010, 05:56 PM

Maybe BMW should just hire StopTech to do these kind of promotions for them? Because their latest StopTech Trackday car is 10 times more exciting than this Limited Edition joke.

rzm3 · 06-17-2010, 06:39 PM

That's all BMW can do to celebrate 25 years of M3?!

Bluesummer · 06-17-2010, 07:00 PM

Just called my dealership and confirmed that pretty much all sales will be done through the phone order on Monday (almost like a freaking iPhone4 pre order ) You call, choose a dealership that you would like to take your delivery bam done. Dearship can't sell it for anything over MSRP nor anything under.

cap_freez · 06-17-2010, 07:02 PM

I don't mind the audi style 2-tone interior. I find it looks pretty good actually

BMW3R · 06-17-2010, 07:09 PM

Very cool! I would have bought if I wasn't so anxious to get the car I have now. However, I would say that I love the space gray paint, but the interior of the LE is very nice.

kred · 06-17-2010, 07:40 PM

those rims kind of look like the ones on my 328i...

+1, sad.

ZCPM3owner · 06-17-2010, 07:50 PM

As the manufacturer of the "ultimate driving machine", BMW could (and should) have done better.

Thank god they didn't call it the 25th anniversary edition....

Weak sauce, BMW!

J08M3 · 06-17-2010, 07:57 PM

Interior looks horrible in my opinion.... I like the exterior color, but it's nothing special that's for sure.

HBspeed · 06-17-2010, 08:04 PM

The only positive I can think of out of this joke is that "limited edition" probably means last edition. Thankfully 2011 could be the last year of the e92 m3 and we can move on sooner to the 1-series M and the next M3 giving BMW the chance to redeem itself with "ultimate driving machines" that are less fat and more focused.

jms_w · 06-17-2010, 08:10 PM

Other than the color, there's no way you can tell that this is anything more than a ZCP M3. Put CF spliters on the front and CF rear diffuser at least. And extended leather in fox red would've made this interior more complete as well as real CF trim and extend CF to the front and rear center consoles. Oh well, I'd probably still notice one if it passed by me on the road.

Wah · 06-17-2010, 08:16 PM

OK, so who is gonna get one?

M_Time · 06-17-2010, 08:26 PM

Hate the interior color, Where is the color stitching ??

dc5 jet · 06-17-2010, 11:21 PM

nice wheels, nice paint, but i just have to have that license plate.

H2 · 06-17-2010, 11:47 PM

I would be surprised if they sold all 30 available since they are only producing them for a little over a month. And if they do sell them all, Frozen Gray will become one of the least exclusive individual colors. In any case, it's good to make the color available. However, I don't care much for those red inserts.

CORTDD · 06-18-2010, 12:48 AM
