My connect is ordering my car on Monday. I've been back & forth regarding body style, but my options are consistent. He told me to think about it over the weekend, and whatever I decide will be put in play next week. The past 48 hours have seen me go from an F82 hater/F80 lover (..and I'm normally a coupe guy) to an F82 lover in Yas Marina Blue. It's the only color that makes the coupe beautiful to me aside from Austin Yellow, but I won't do AY because I had a PY E46. Odd I know. I was even against Silverstone interior up until this point because I favored the outgoing Palladium Silver that I had in 2 of the 3 E9X M3's that I owned previously. Now, the YMB/SSII combo optioned on the coupe body with silver 19's is completely sexy to me. It's really just odd, but I suppose that you warm up to things after you look at them awhile. He told me that he will discount either car for me, so I know that I'll be well taken care of regarding the price. I will admit that I walk outside and look at my modded 335i sedan, and it makes me consider the F80 allllllllll over again. It's really a fucked up process.

Cloth seats look really good here. I would consider them if:
- the doors weren't also finished with cloth - and you were able tick Exec Pack with them Above all other options I have to have heads up display in this car otherwise it's a no-go for me. |

I was there, saw these two in the flesh. The M4 is very nice and I was set on it before I saw them . After seeing them though the M3's charisma was undeniable to me. I have no problem admitting that it could have been a body and wheel color issue but right there during the two hours I spent there I had zero doubts, the M3 dominated the M4 by a margin. Again if the color scheme was reversed my feelings might have been reversed as well. However, as displayed the M4 to me looked slightly plain and blood less, quite unassuming but still pretty while the M3 looked butch, full blooded and beautiful.
Seeing them also made me decide on full leather, something I thought I'd never get in any car ever. Last edited by solstice; 06-15-2014 at 04:31 AM.. |

In any event, I agree with many... full leather is amazing. M3/M4 and color is REALLY tough as they are all great and so subject to personal taste and preference.

Extended for me, can't see the reason why I would care if the dash, glove box, upper sections of the doors are covered in leather. Heck the car will spend 10 hours a day outside at the office. I'm sure it will start to fade over time and that will simply piss me off.

wasn't impressed by full leather
I had a chance to sit in the new M4 yesterday with full black leather.
My first impression was, yeah it is ok, but nothing outstanding. Then I went to sit in the 335 Msport with basic dash. It seemed so horrible compared to the full leather. Next I sat in a 5 series Msport, dash looked better than the 3 series, but thought the M4 looked better inside due to the full leather. Finally my conclusion was the full leather in the M4 is one of the most important options - I just didn't appreciate it until I put it in context. I am one of those not in love with carbon fibre, but I have to admit the carbon fibre trim on the M4 was nice. Moral of the story: get the full leather - I can think of so many things I would give up before the full leather (eg. LED lights). You need to sit in a car will full leather and then one without (any 3/4 series should do) to appreciate it is worth it. |

Full leather does look pretty awesome, but for my color combo, im not exactly a fan. Also, my e92 dash was "fine" so this will be fine and Ill spend the money in mods instead

I remember 6 years ago when I ordered my e92 it was locked in the system, but they made a call and were able to get a last second change to one of the specs. |

The E92 dash didn't have the reptile skin soft material that the F3X/F8X has. I liked my non-leather dash in the E9X M3.
