Frost Black 1/20 M3 Spotted! Fresh Off The Boat!

This rolled into Valencia BMW last night while I was getting my new z4 35i...

I know I read about this limited edition one somewhere on here... I'm sure someone will find the link.

I saw one of these in Frankfurt airport a while back, and it just doesn't do it for me. It frankly looks like the wax they have on the cars during shipping. I'll admit that the gray looked a bit interesting, but the matte black just sloppy and blotchy even in certain areas. When you look at some of the rich colors available on BMW's pallet, I just can't see how people get all excited about these plain matte colors. I understand this is a subjective aspect, and to each his own, but this color does nothing for me.

Glad some people like it, but I don't find it appealing at all. That dislike grows stronger when I think what a pain it well be to maintain.

i honestly think this car looks aggressive in person, but seeing the amount of finger marks on it, its definitely not an everyday car.
