Anyone know how much this option cost in Canada? Is the interior any different?

Checkcaptain · 02-03-2010, 06:00 AM

I did add some minor black upgrades.
I think the car should have come like this from BMW, cause black rims and crome parts do not match!

Car looks awesome! Congrats. If I'd be switching cars I'd definitely go for Frozen Grey. I'm surprised you went for the yellow brembos on a low-key looking car.

Or maybe I'm the only one who got the Space Grey to blend in with the other 3 coupes...

I originally bought it for my Space Grey car - you are right, I should have gone for black calipers

no way you should have gone for black calipers! those yellow brembos are my favorite color... i think red ones are played out kind of...

Ralf,

Don't worry those yellow brembos look so so good. Your car is beautiful!
What else do you have planned for it? New wheels?

Later,

Chris

Checkcaptain · 02-03-2010, 11:49 PM

Hi Chris,

of course it will get OEM GTS wheels

Good question.

I have a frozen grey M5. I have the only one in the USA. It's an amazing color, especially in the sun light.

1MOREMOD · 02-15-2010, 08:18 PM

just gotta say frozen gray is awesome. with all the matte black accents and wheels just unbelievable. love it.

hamad · 02-15-2010, 09:07 PM

What's up Aaron. Nice to see you over on M3post.

Akrapovic makes an M6 system. It's really one of the best systems that I have seen in person. I hope they will get into the M5 market soon.

I can join the "Frozen Club" but I do not have an M3, I have an M5. I am also located in the USA.

I have done all matte carbon fiber for the front grills, side gills, lower mirror covers. I also did matte black exhaust tips (and the front of the cans, so if your down on your knees looking at the exhaust, you won't see silver) and matte black m5 badge (putting on soon. trying to find a product to take off adhesive that wont damage the matte paint). I also had the side markers done in a matte white/clear and paintmatched the front side reflectors frozen grey.

IND was my supplier for all the parts. I highly suggest them to anybody, because if you have a vision for your car they are the people that can make it happen, all in house. They ordered all my parts (which were high quality parts btw, not the cheap stuff almost all suppliers sell to us) and painted or gave the matte treatment to parts then sent them out to me all within about a week. IND is a very top notch and efficient shop.

I really like the M3 in this color also.. Carbonfiber goes great with Frozen Grey. Individual should start moving onto matte 'frozen blue', etc. which I think they are going to do in spring '10 for the M3

Here are the photos of my car:
