How adorable.

I remember back in college, my then-girlfriend gave me a stuffed turtle to leave on my dash to remind me to driver slower. lol

The front of your car looks suspiciously high. Do you still have the transport blocks in the suspension? Could just be the light.

Hm I will have to check. Here's another angle. This looks high… but keep in mind I opted for 18/19

I agree this looks high. Even if you're on 18/19 I would expect the overall diameter to (almost) match the 19/20 setup.

Yes, Verde Ermes. Not to be mistaken with Hermes, (pronounced Airmez) the fashion brand.

Yep they look like transport blocks. If the ride is harsher than you've been expecting then that's another piece of evidence.

It is rather harsh but being this is my first
M3 and high performance vehicle in general I didn't know. The question now is, has this or will this cause damage? Should I reach out to the dealership in Germany I got it from ?

Hmmm...I thought the transport blocks were blue? Other folk have posted pictures of them before.

Yep. Verde Ermes. It is a Lamborghini colour. Individual color. Expenvise option at 8k in Australia.

Wife picked it. Seriously I am not a green guy but this thing pops when in the sun. I live in a climate when the sun is out most of the year so really pops.

Had many comments on the color. So glad we chose it. When ordered in August 2021 only two in the world according to BMW on the new G80/G82.

Kids needed new shoes, so off to Kohls we went. 🤷🏻
