Is that Frozen Grey? The black alloys make it look even more menacing.
I picked up my E90 M3 Saloon three weeks ago, it really is a fantastic motor.

Lovely, miss my red one, looks better with the black alloys (of which I'm not normally a big fan). Enjoy, 8300rpm in third is a joy!

Nice car, but are they still suffering from orange peal due to the water based paints these days?

Love the colour.

Is this the special paint that has to have insect stains and guano removed immediately (more immediately than normal paint) ?

Can anyone help me on the perfect M button settings or is the standard good enough?

Very nice...like it a lot
Is that classified as a matte colour?
Looks great though. And love the black rims

From the M cars we have had, most of the settings are pretty sound. The only ones that usually need changing are the star and rhombus - in my brothers car, he has star as changing music mode (for aux or CDs) and the rhombus is repeating the sat nav instruction

I think you have to go into the centre settings menu on the iDrive for that.

M button on mine was; sport+ throttle, m-mode for traction control and EDC on firmest setting, with steering on heaviest setting also. I lived in London at the time and ran the car with EDC on soft, but used the M button a great deal, plus I liked the contrast in feel between the two settings. Just MHO.

Very nice!

Have you been given details on how to clean the paintwork? As I understand it you do need to clean/treat it in a very specific way. It's a weird texture, reminds me of blackboard paint!

Enjoy.
