California Dreamin': E92 Space Grey/Fox Red

M2381 · 05-28-2008, 11:25 AM

Man..I orderd silver novillo because I got tired of black interior from my previous car. But today I saw the fox red in person but I'm just afraid I'll get tired of it since the M3 will be my daily driver...any comments or suggestions?

looking good, X
when did you get the M5? was it after the M3? you should have said something and we would have done it the same way you took delivery of your M3.....

awesome pictures!

Thank you everyone for the compliments! By the way, if anyone wants a detail shoot me a PM, I'm looking to try out some new polishes that I just received.

Got the M5 before the M3, back in November of 07.

Nicest M3 I've seen yet. Very original and modest.

Thank you for the great compliment!!

i cant wait to get mine! (same color except extended leather)

also, with the full premier clear bra, does it cover entire hood, bumper and fenders? Please PM me the cost of this.

Yes, entire hood, bumper, and fenders + side mirrors and headlights. Cost was $1,800.

I think you still have the thin blue protective film on your foot rest. It is supposed to be removed to display the nice stainless steel underneath.

It's just the way the picture was taken, the blue film was taken off at delivery.

Sadly no, the M5 lives in CT (where I'm originally from), so no chance of getting them together.

Just the white part.

Steveo58 · 05-29-2008, 01:25 PM

looks great. give me the low down on the front tint. i've been think about it but worried about getting popped by the fuzz... are you worried? does it hinder your depth preception at all? it looks killer... in fact, the whole car looks great. really clean and well done!

ImanINC · 05-29-2008, 01:28 PM

Nice

When you get the car please put some pics up. I've never seen extended FR leather and would be very ionterested in doing so before I order.

ALPINE6SPD · 05-30-2008, 03:14 PM

Nice, looks awesome. Did you use an orbital polisher on it? If so what kind?
