A non-chavvy (no carbon bling like us cool kids have) M3/M4?

Dammit.. that’s page 2! 🤣

Anyhoo, some have correctly surmised it’s a BMW.. however it’s not a black one! Actually, very little is black on it! It’s an IoM green M3 Touring with silverstone interior and silver wheels (admittedly it has black calipers).. picking it up next Friday

Nice! I imagine it will be pretty rare optioned with silver wheels.

I can also now recount the story about the iX. My son and I have a silly game where we each scream "aaaaaaah" every time we pass on iX on account of it being possibly the ugliest car ever produced. It is also known in our household as "the Beaver".

Nice colour! Love the IoM green, but I couldn't find one when I was looking for mine.

So good to see another not-black, silver or something in between colour being bought.

Nice. Silver wheels is the correct choice, well played.

Something like this?:

They look incredibly fiddly to clean though - you may regret the silver! I'm thankful my multispoke GTS wheels are black...

God, M3 Tourings are so common around these parts.

Not like the exclusive, cultured choice of the Z4 Coupe ;)

(good choice, good colour)

Where did you source your wheels from? I’m considering a winter tour and it’s on 4S’s currently, so may get a winter set.

@GG. i can’t remember the last time i cleaned a car! 😅

I’ve not seen one in a bad colour yet. An excellent choice.

Cotswold BMW usually do the best prices I could see - they have a forum presence on m3cutters where they can do quotes if you post. Just got luck with someone on the forum selling a set of the CS wheels I was looking for.

Alloy Wheels Direct were also good.

@IanF - I think I have a spare set of rubber floormats going free if you need them.

There’s been other coupe’s on the forum so if you want rare you want the focus <jacked up but still definitely wrong wheel drive> 1l active. It’s exclusive, but definitely not cultured, fast or exciting :lol:


M3 sounds great Ian
