New F80 M3 (Green!) With Pics

[Timbuk2]

Hi all,

I just wanted to share some pictures of my new M3.

The colour is unusual, British Racing Green with Cohiba Brown "full leather" interior.

It was a dealer ordered pre-reg car with a decent spec, HUD, HK, LED adaptive lights, full leather, surround cameras and a healthy discount over a factory ordered car!

Very, very cool colour! Looks very menacing in green enjoy!

[Moycie]

Congratulations. That looks fantastic in BRG, and the interior is great!

Not a colour combo i'd have thought would work on paper, but that does look really really good. Enjoy.

Being a new M3 owner myself, that car looks great to me, enjoy it.;)

+1 on that, quite understated but classy !

[Presuming Ed]

Wow! That looks amazing.

[mikeyscott]

That's a fantastic combination

OP - Very nice looking car.

Would you mind sharing "the deal" you got on this pre-reg car ? PM if you prefer.

Barons BMW Hindhead have a pre-reg car with £20k of options (includes £6k for ceramic brakes !).
List price total was £76k.

I was in there the week before Christmas to look at an X6 and was quite distracted

With discount it was available for £69k. I'd have been interested if i could have got to somewhere around the £62k mark. The discount worked out at about 11% on the base price of the car, then add the cost of the options.

Oh and I can't send a link to the car, they never seem to put pre-reg cars on their website ?

Thanks,
Nick

I've heard a few people claim to have got 18% discount on a pre-reg car so £62-63K should be achievable.
Will all depend on how long they have had it and how desperate they are to get rid.

That looks ace.

I think one of the issues with the F80 M3/M4 is the colour palette available. These custom order colours make a huge difference.

Also, the full leather interior really moves the car into another level when it comes to a place to sit and spend time.

Enjoy.

Looks lovely. Is it just me that thinks the M3 looks much more muscular and just nicer than the M4?

[bigtime]

11% discount on a pre reg isn't good. You can easily get 12% off the total including options on a new car to order. Remember you'll be the second owner and its in stock so I'd be aiming for 20% off a pre reg.

I agree - the standard range of colours is naff. Even more annoyingly colours which I'd like on an M3/4 are available elsewhere in BMW's model range at no extra charge but because they're not an M3/4 colour you'd have to pay through the nose to get them.

Very nice, I love some of the Individual M3s. This one is perfect with the brown interior IMO

OP, i love that colour.

Its very different! and for me is certainly something i would look at. Love it!





That deal doesnt seem great to me!

Im pretty sure i saw pre reg M4's in Eastern BMW Edinburgh for 54k a few months ago? Marina Blue i think was the colour.

Thanks
Nick

Wow looks ace!

Wasn't sure of the colour but definitely look stunning!

[claudereff]

Very nice Chariot and congrats on an interesting combo. I am particularly impressed with the interior first time I have seen this colour.

The F80 shape hasn't grown on me yet, in fact I can't say I really like it at all. But, in that colour combination, it looks really handsome. Top work.
