Santorini Blue looks very pretty nice on the E92. I wish I can see this color in person!

I think it may need some BMW Performance carbon bits, such as boot (trunk) spoiler and front splitter. The front just isn't aggressive enough for me.

Heh Mr....you modding already

Bob Santorini · 01-09-2013, 04:46 PM

Yes mate. Added an OEM carbon rear spoiler. I hear you may be moving on again?

llis · 01-09-2013, 05:36 PM

Beautiful car! I was sorely tempted by Santorini Blue. I will say I don't have regrets not getting it, but it's not because that color isn't gorgeous!

I wish i could change car every week fella. I have been considering what to change for in the spring, but to be honest she is only doing 20 miles a week on average so i will probably keep her for a while longer.

Dont get me wrong she's gorgeous. I heard you were looking at moving on as well??. Also heard about the spoiler...did you get Stratstone to do the work and are you getting front splitters??...would love to know the price

Bob Santorini · 01-10-2013, 03:02 PM

Keeping the miles down then mate! I've done 6k in mine so far.

I'll be keeping 'him' (all my cars are blokes - lol) for at least another 18 months. I bought the spoiler off ebay for £150. It was used but in near perfect nick. I just had to prep the underside and spend time clearing the old residue off. Also lucky to find the seller was in Burton so i bought straight away without fannying around bidding.

I fitted it myself with the help of a friend. Wasn't nice watching the old one come off though

To be honest I need to do it again as I'm not 100% happy with it. It looks great from a distance but you can see residue of the 3M tape across the edge. Will have another go when the weather improves.

Not sure if the OEM 2 piece splitters look right on this colour scheme... I quite like the Vorsteiner splitter. All are very expensive for what is technically a potential tarmac plough so may keep an eye on fleebay.

I took him to the 'ring in Aug. Unfortunately it rained the whole time but I managed 4 laps. If you haven't done so already you should get over there as it's brilliant. Loads of petrol heads there!
Will probably go again later this year.

I'd quite like a 911 GT3 at some stage in future...

What do you think you will go for next?

I am imagining Santorini Blue Matte/Frozen. Possible?

MattJenkins · 01-20-2023, 03:06 PM

Hi Nick,

Don't suppose you have any idea who now owns your old Santorini do you?
