night interior picture request

SoCalTony · 11-16-2008, 09:04 PM

I have been searching but to no avail. I am looking for some pictures of the interior of the E90/92 M3. I want to see what all the lights (dash, radio, ambient, etc...) look like on the night.

thanks in advance
Tony

The ambient lighting in this generation 3 series is sick if you haven't seen it in person.

in one of the threads listed above, there was a shot where the interior of the doors and such were lit with the amber lighting. the guy said this was a "lighting package." is this standard or something? are there any more pics available?

Does this come standard?

It is the picture of the doors from the interior, and they're lit up in the amber lighting.

wow,very nice pics!

SoCalTony · 11-18-2008, 05:59 PM

I apologize if this obvious and off topic, but the one thing that surprised me about the M3 was that the interior lights for the dash (specifically the speedo, tach, etc.) are not red. I was under the impression that BMW and AUDI use red interior lights? Though I think white is bit easier for me to read, I have to admit that I was a bit disappointed that I wasn’t bathed in a sea of red!

KINGLEH · 11-19-2008, 01:54 AM

redid my pic.. made it better...

moog55 · 11-19-2008, 03:49 AM

personally, i like the fact that the m3's instrument lights are white. maybe it's just that i already owned a bmw with all orange (they seem more orange than red to me) lights. the whites are a nice change.

It's funny that you say that because I just noticed that the instrument lights are white from the pics. I've had my car for almost two months now and didn't notice. I guess I'm so used to driving my old 318ti that has orange lights.

Are you sure the interior door lights are standard? I;ve had my car for a little over a month now and have yet to notice such a light coming from the doors at night?

I believe it is standard for the coupe and not available for the sedan. I don't know about the E93 (convertible). This is in the US. Outside the US YMMV.

ajminn · 11-19-2008, 05:05 PM

^ i've seen some standard e90 3ers with it. i was hoping the e90 m3 would have it to. any e90 owners want to chip in on this?

not like it's going to be a dealbreaker though. need 4 doors for kids and the v8 for me.

chili cheese · 11-19-2008, 06:42 PM

Woops, I guess I forgot to consider the e90.

Here's a link to the BMW website:
http://www.bmwusa.com/Standard/Conte...q+aMdVvCi1QZJX

Under "Comfort and Convenience" it indicates "BMW Ambiance Lighting front and rear".

I also just built a base e90 M3 on the website and it indicated the same in the final printout of the specs/features.
