BMW M3

[michael243]

A friend of the family has a Laguna Blue BMW convertible and hardtop M3 with Laguna Blue interior, my question is how rare are these in the UK?



This is the only picture I could find of the car.

Many Thanks

No idea, sounds nice though.

Whilst Googling the colour, I came across this car...





Cor, wow! That's lovely. I have been a little put off by the new M3 as every one I've seen has looked a bit bland...now I know the problem! They were all silver or black! This looks stunning.

They are quite rare i think, cant tell you how many are made, but only ever seen 2 in the flesh, and a couple up for sale.

They do look nice in that colour, also imola red.

[danyeates]

Which brings me to another point....the list of colours available on the BMW website for the M3! It's pretty disappointing. Silver, grey, white, black, dark blue, red. That's it.

Laguna seca blue was an BMW individual option colour.
I have only ever seen one and it lives in the next town,it also has the laguna seca leather.

What wheels are those? Look like they could be from an E60 M5. Great deep dish.

Seen a couple, never seen one with a hard top though. Looks

I don't think the first picture is real. Standard M-Sport (or M5 as mentioned) alloys instead of the M3 ones and looks a bit CG. Also, the interior photo is from the previous model MP3, the e46.

Good spot. I did think those front wheels have a suspiciously deep dish, the offset would need to be huge.

that must be 2 cars, if the 1st isn't a photoshop. it's an E92 body with an E46 interior!

Is that from the bad parking thread?

[Ozzie Osmond]

I'm not sure the words "M3" and "rare" often crop up together. Colour and trim don't amount to much.

The words "M3" and "ragged" are where the issues lie.

Just found the pics on Google images. Not the same car, most likely photoshopped yeah.

Stunning though isn't it?!

The side of the car on the left of the photo is very, very edited. Great interior though.

[zeduffman]

I've followed one from Hastings to Hawkhurst on a number of occasions.

[RockDoctor]

Definitely quite rare, but I've seen a few. I love the colour and interior combo. Favourite E46 M3 colour by far.

[Fordo]

A guy just down the road form me has one in leguna seca blue - looks stunning. I dont think ive ever seen another in that colour though.

I keep walking past hoping one day i'll see it with a for sale sign.....

[VinceFox]

different car, but here's the one i was thinking of..


http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2002-BMW-M3-M3-/28103397...

love the colour, but if i were buying one i'd go more subtle so it was easier to hide.
