M3 and RS Stealth Grey vs BG

Let the RS go over the weekend, bitter sweet, used market is HOT HOT HOT so got a good return, but she will be missed. Tried to get some cool photos.

Congratulations. Enjoy it in great health. That RS is an instant classic.

Focus RS is known to retain value so I can't imagine how much they're going for in this market.

I prefer the RS Grey to be honest.

Yeah i was hoping to keep it "forever" or thats what i thought when i bought it. But have a 2nd car in a city is just so inconvenient and i lost less then 25% of value over 5 years, so pretty good.

I think the dark grey photographs easier, the BG is hard to accureltey get with a photo and im no pro. I will say no one ever complemented the color on the RS, i have had more then a few people tell me they love the color on the M.

Going from the RS to the M though is like going from a toy to the real deal, i was shocked at how big of a step up the M really is because the RS was no slouch, but just different leagues completely, obviously you pay for that but i was surprised.

I've seen Brooklyn Grey in person on a G82 and I liked it it was my top pick until I decided that I wanted more color in my life

But I really like the grey on the Focus RS think it'll look great on a G8x
