thanks all...

That Red/Black interior looks pretty good even in that iphone pict. Are you glad you went with that choice? I almost went with that interior on my MR E92. Everybody said it would be awful but I still think it might have been cool :-)

chris s · 11-30-2010, 09:43 AM

Looks great! Congrats and enjoy it!

gixxer_kidd · 11-30-2010, 09:56 AM

congrats. nice color combo. seats look great.

Raz335 · 11-30-2010, 09:58 AM

These are the first real pics I've seen of the two tone interior. Looks good, got any more pics?

mpardun · 11-30-2010, 10:57 AM

If all goes well, it should be on it's way to Denver as I write this Email from ATL airport on my way home. Seemed a shame to put 1,509 hard winter miles on it out of the gate.

I will post some more interior pics when I can. The Fox red is a little orange IMHO to combine with MR exterior, but I saw another post that looked pretty good. I'd stick with Black or go Bamboo if you want a nice contrast (albeit PITA to maintain.

I "should" pick up the car from my CA Tuesday (1 weeks) if all goes to plan - so thats all the pics I have for now.

NYCMCBM3 · 11-30-2010, 10:58 AM

your car looks great bro, congratsz

mpardun · 11-30-2010, 11:06 AM

Coming off the back of 2 Ti Silver/Black vehicles, I needed some more pizzaz than all back offered...ext. Red was too much - this IS just right IMHO.

As a pretty conservative guy, I harkened back to my '03 e46 M3 that was Ti Silver and Imola Red. I was alot younger then (single, not married, no kids), and loved the loud red statement that that car made. Something about ordering something exclusive to the M3's is nice (even thought 90% of folks don't know anything about it (most of the women in my life don't get what the big deal is: but they do see me acting like a kid in a candy store and they get that!), to the ones in the know, it matters.

I wasn't wild about Fox Red to start with 6 months or so ago, too orange/brown, but I took a gamble when the '11.5 specs came out and am so glad I did. In this car is looks a little more red than in the AW/MW vehicles. I think it goes well with the darker colors (esp: JB/JB/SG)

Woot!

signes · 11-30-2010, 10:06 PM

Looks nice, will be good to have another E90 around CC.

theArgiope · 12-02-2010, 03:41 PM

Congrats, sir.

We'll be in this together; I take delivery of a space gray e90 M3 on Saturday. It'll be my first M, coming from 328 and an X5. Went with the ZCP too, but all black interior.

I gotta say - it's very enlightening to see such a solid M community. Feels like a joining a family.

new2the3 · 12-02-2010, 05:35 PM

Very nice car, Love the leather. So you flew to SC from Denver, and now your shipping the car back? Seems like a hassle but the PCD must have been a blast. I live out in Vail, enjoy.

GewoW · 12-02-2010, 05:52 PM

Nice pilotis

anthony @ eas · 12-02-2010, 06:13 PM

Congrats! I like your interior.

mpardun · 12-02-2010, 08:45 PM

Thanks...

Yes I did- it's not your run of the mill delivery. BMW pays for hotel, steak dinner, breakfast, driving school, factory tour, museum and transport to/from the airport!

Amazing deal...

H2C · 12-03-2010, 12:48 AM

who did you end up using to transport your car back?
waggoners trucking down the street from PCD?

mpardun · 12-03-2010, 11:42 AM

High End Transport...FT Lauderdale, FL at the recommendation if Ryan at Steve Thomas. http://www.gohet.com/

Car is still in transit, mechanical issue that delayed pick-up by 2 days...so not able to recommend them - yet. OK communication leading up to the day (leaves something to be desired)...fairly good communication, once the pick-up was in jeopardy.
