Full Silverstone merino interior
Aluminium blade trim
DCT
Black alloys
HUD
HK
Air collar
Heated steering wheel
Wind deflector
Adaptive lights
High beam assist

Car is on stock so shouldn't have to wait long to get my hands on it!

Pictures to follow if people want to see.

Look forward to the pics! Although still not sure about the exhaust note on those, an aftermarket pipe will do the job, get it sounding a touch more aggressive.

Great looking car, Enjoy! Is the weight affected much like the previous model?

Cracking car mate, congrats! Passed an M4 in Sakhir Orange earlier this week, stunning.

"swap" is that the right word? wink

I cant really pass comment on the dynamics of the M4 convertible as I have only managed a 30 minute test drive. If you believe what you read it hides its weight rather well apparently..

I will provide a review after I pick her up in the coming weeks.

Needless to say I am excited! smile

Well perhaps 'trade' with an emphasis on its costing me quite a bit more money! lol

I did get what I think is a very good deal and a very healthy discount as it was a stock car.
I always do my homework on the forums, these are invaluable sources of information. I challenged the dealer on numerous things and every time he went away and phoned me back the price kept coming down. Happy days!

I cant say I have even seen a sakhir orange in the flesh on an M4 convertible... I hope I like it lol.

Typical, having never seen an M3/4 in Sakhir i actually saw an M3 Saloon in this colour yesterday. Looked really good & i think better suited than it is on the M5 as naturally a lot less metal to cover. The bigger the car the louder the loud colour appears.

Stunning, congrats! I thought the adaptive lights were in LED only? This has xenon lights..?
