Excellent. Nice effort and nice luck. The risk of arrest for a car and for M3post.com .

Seems to be the first pics of NA production cars, actually in NA. Nice!

I wonder what the cars are seems dealer demo cars will go straight to dealers.

It looks bad from a distance but once you get near you just come to your senses and you realize its V8 M3 all is good...and upclose its a beauty, only thing I hate is the crome around windows and all the weight it adds...

I wouldn't go so far as arrest, lol, the cars are there awaiting prep for a dealer drive event

yeah it sucks, I keep insisting to my CA that I don't want the front plate mounted but he keeps insisting right back that he has to mount it by NJLaw b/c its required, I'll still keep trying...

about that...is the white piece for the license plate just painted plastic that mounts onto the bumper? i'm wondering how many holes are actually in the bumper because i'm taking delivery and living in germany where it is mandatory to have front plates. once i ship it back to california, i'm taking the front plate off and want to know what scars are going to be there...

definitely not cinnamon, Cinnamon is a light color check out the FR thread I posted a pic in it of cinnamon...

I would say some of these shot are a really good interpretation of what it looks like IRL...I'm glad I could help many members who are on the fence about this color....its simply beautiful, like others have said its more like a brick...

I'm still having issues with uploading the video....

Cool thanks. Pics from a couple angles would be boss too.
While you're at it, can you clean them and then take the pic?

Dude that rocks. I'm very excited about the FR. I still don't think I want the extended, though I might get the middle console piece separately like Greg is planning to since I think that would look good in red. If I don't get the extended then the dash would be black and I'm debating on whether to choose Aluminum versus the Carbon Fiber Leather I currently have spec'd.
Looking forward to the videos.

I passed by one more time to see if I could snap a pic of the 18's for Epacy and to get one more good look @ FR, but they are gone getting prep. for a dealer event, you'll see in the video later tonight...for me its not out of the way its ON THE WAY to and from work, so I don't suggest you drive over since you might be disappointed....

any suggestions for uploading, I keep getting errors on Youtube and on Photobucket it just freezes up...I may have to try an edit them into smaller parts...

HAHA i thought i was the only crazy one. I work down the block from the headquarters and i go there every day. I have pictures of the X6 before it was introduced at the NA auto show. About a month ago they had about 10 beutiful White coupes all in a row And this past monday i showed up when two trucks were unloading 8 Silver four doors and a 135 Convertible. That place in woodcliff lake is a Toy store for me. I have seen the the first one in the begginig of January. As far as getting arested? The parking lot that he took the pics were not even BMW's Property they are renting the space from SONY. A couple of times when i went there at night the security car would patrol. The real BMW's that they dont want you to see is in thier gate which is blocked with bushes and a security guard. I have caught glimpses of spy cars but its hard to tell thru trees.
