Congrats! Love IB w/ FR but I'm a little biased since I was the first (at least from my knowledge & m3post members) to have IB/FR (no 2tone)

my car just celebrated its 3rd Bday on my 30th Bday and I couldn't be happier with it

yeah, If I could've done it over, I'd probably had gone with a rust brown two-tone, but fox red was just as good for cheaper

now, if I had no other obligations, a monte carlo blue with rust brown two-tone would have been the ticket!

Congrats man, she's a beauty! I'm glad you finally will get to experience all the car has to offer - it has been bliss over the past (almost) 2 years...

I think mine was delivered on the same platter .


If you don't mind me asking, how much did these individual options run you to?

Congrats with the beautiful car, and thank you for the beautiful pics and great write-up. Interlagos is indeed the right color for the E90

But - on a side note - isn't that red coupe Melbourne Red, and not Hellrot?

thanks!

indeed it was Hellrot...it was hard to capture, but I tried (the car emblem on the side said hellrot red). Maybe this looks more like it:

Rust brown with that blue would be an awesome combo.

Very nice interior. I especially like the steering wheel and contrast stitching. Sounds like you had a great ED. Congrats.

Welcome home and glad to hear you had a wonderful time!! Car looks fantastic and your pics....just perfect A friend of mine here just got the same two-tone interior as yours and I just loved it. But he didn't have your stitching....exactly what the TT interior needed. Great job (gotta hand it to Christine!!)

Now this E.D. really brought back memories....yours and mine were exactly 1 year apart, just about to the hour. Maybe someday again.....

Take care mister - Mark

Congrats! You really make me wish I did an ED. Beautiful choice in exterior color. I really like the red stitching. It would have been nice for me to get it with speed cloth interior, but I guess that's for next time. Got my M3 via David also. I did a PCD. Are you planning on doing a PCD too? It's a blast.

Thanks for sharing such great pictures. Absolutely amazing views in the mountains. And great choice on color--IB changes slightly between blue/purplish depending on lighting conditions. Enjoy it!

Simply aMazing. My jaw hit the floor a couple times. You definitely raised the bar for Individual configurations and it was very tastefully done. The whole salesforce was over at my desk looking at the pics. "Ooooh look at the stitching". Awesome.

The interior combination is incredible. I was anticipating your delivery for some time too! Thanks for letting me be a part of your experience of a lifetime.

Regards,
David

Not a fan of the 2-tone, but everything else is awesome..

I really like those mountain shots.
