I don't think I would pay 90k for an M3, but I guess you guys don't have a choice in Canada...
If you already got all the noob questions out of the way, then why don't you decide for yourself what options to get? What I am saying is... who gives a sh!t about what board members think about the color and options you choose?
Either way, hope you pull the trigger! Most people on these forums have had multiple generation M3s and will continue to drive them for years to come. You will understand when you get one. The M3 is extremely addicting. It will consume your life
