Official SKYSCRAPER GREY G80 M3 / G82 M4 Thread

FinalV8 · 08-17-2021, 06:47 PM

Sorry to all, this is not Mat Watson or Yiani from Carwow but I think it deserves some press. My baby just arrived (Skyscraper over Fiona Red) hours ago at BMW of Westlake (Ohio), thanks to my SA Nez Faraj and GM Adam Moon which are both amazing and easy to do business with. It arrived from Baltimore...some details below (directionally correct):

June 10 - Car ordered from dealer
June 12 - Scheduled for production
July 2 - Production begins
July 9 - Production complete
July 12 - Dispatched from factory
July 18 - Leaves Germany Port
July 25 - Arrives Baltimore
Aug 13 - Dispatched for delivery
Aug 17 - Arrives at US Dealer

THESE PICS ARE RIGHT OFF THE TRUCK (NO DEALER PREP). I can't wait to see this thing in person, delivery on Friday 8/18. I've been fortunate to own a lot of M cars and believe this will be up there. I will send much better pics, with a better camera, this weekend and some Dragy results. Really wanted all black wheels, I'll wait to powder coat till I see in person and make a call. Needs to drop as many others have and mid-pipe/DP/etc and JB4. Then all set.

Hope you enjoy, more to come.

FinalV8 Looks nice. I hope that's before the shipping blocks were remove from the suspension. Looks abnormally high / lifted here.

Kevin_The_Clean1 · 08-18-2021, 02:33 AM

To me this color looks a lot like the Space Gray on my E90 335i. Which is also close to the silver gray on the previous gen E46 M3 (like someone pointed out on the previous page).

Awesome! Very similar spec to mine. I didn't get carbon exterior or full Fiona but went with the all black 826M wheels, red calipers and laser lights. Loving the gray on the red.

I'm currently scheduled to drop in production in September.

Can't wait to see the dragy times. If you don't mind me asking, why didn't you order the all black wheels if you wanted them?

FinalV8 · 08-18-2021, 10:10 PM

Black wheels not an optional on 22 M3 xDrive.

They are. I ordered them on my 2022 M3 comp xDrive and have them spec'd on my build sheet as well. SA just had to option them manually with code ZWH.

Bummer if they didn't know/tell you that and you wanted them. They don't show up on the online configurator we see but the SA can select them on their side.

FinalV8 · 08-18-2021, 11:20 PM

Uggg, anyone want to swap bi color for black 826M? I'm here!

Only other regret is laser light because it really sounds/looks cool and M Professional Driver thing…just means that I now have to drive better w no DSC on 2WD which is nothing new.

Pics coming Sunday and some pre break-in Dragy pulls. Godspeed.

What are you saying? Do you have black and wish you didn’t? Or vice versa?

Yes definitely. I hope no one flips out by me saying this, but it kind of reminded me of MB Selenite Grey. Not quite as Dark or blueysh but i did think about it.

More skyscraper grey

diavliyo · 08-26-2021, 10:44 AM

thanks

JDUNITNOW · 08-26-2021, 12:51 PM

I switched my color to Dravit because I have seen it on person but now I am second guessing my decision. I am still waiting on a allocation so I can still go back and make changes.

diavliyo · 08-27-2021, 11:12 AM

skyscraper_g80 · 09-02-2021, 08:38 PM

Anyone recently taken delivery of a Skyscraper Grey M3 with 825M bicolour wheels? Keen to see this combination (esp. with a Silverstone interior)

Did you see the video on page 7 of this thread? I believe it's of the exact combo you're looking for.

Yeh I've seen that video, as far as I'm aware it's the only video/photo set I can find of that particular combination. Hopefully there will be some more deliveries & photos of Skyscraper + Silverstone + 825M bicolour M3's 🙂

skyscraper_g80 · 09-04-2021, 08:32 PM

A new video from RybrookTV in the colour combination I was looking for

CAS_M3 · 09-08-2021, 01:14 AM

After 6 months, it finally arrived. Got to pick her up this evening and I was speechless. Skyscraper over Fiona Red is 🔥. Just a quick pic before turning in for the night. Ceramic coat and tint Friday. More pics to come. 🤙🏽
