Picked up my IOMG M3 Comp

Picked up my IOMG M3 Comp on Friday but have been too busy driving to post.

I won't go into some big review but I absolutely love it. This is my first M and it is incredible. I couldn't wait to be done with work today to take it out again.

A few notes:

CF Buckets - Certainly a lot of debate about these on here. I have zero regrets getting the buckets. I think they are very comfortable and fit me perfectly. Getting in and out was defintely weird at first but I have gotten accustomed to it and after a few days now it's not something I even need to think about. I absolutely love being in them.

Mods - I have painted reflectors I need to install and will be ordering the IND front, rear and wheel badges with the outer chrome ring painted gloss black.

Reactions - Thumbs up and smiles from some other BMW drivers. Plenty of heads turning. No one has thrown up at the sight of it (sorry grille haters). Getting gas today had a guy ask me if the wheels were factory, he liked them. Had a woman at gas staion comment on how nice it was, asked if it was a 2021 and said how much she loved the M cars.

I will be doing a full detail, polish and ceramic coating myself.

Here are a few pictures. Nothing new to see here.

With that color combo, those seats, and that grill, expect A LOT of attention everywhere you go, Zirenz. Hec, it almost looks like a concept car, especially when the door opens and that orange leather is everywhere. I applaud your bold decision.

So enjoy the car, and be ready to entertain a lot of attention on the road and once you park. Your car is going to captivate a lot of people, even non-car people.

Never thought I’d like green on a car so much. This specific combination is tastefully done.

I have mostly seen the 826 wheels including on mine but it's nice to see someone with the other style as there not as common from what I've seen. They look really nice on your build! Also man do those orange carbon bucket look nice! Damn! Congrats!

Such a beautiful spec. Those wheels compliment this color so well. Congrats again my Sunshine ACE brother (for casual readers that was the vessel OP and I both came over on).

Oh, by the way I had a stowaway on board I discovered. This spider was in my car day 2 and I do not believe I have ever seen this kind of spider in New York. Definitely came over from the ship or the factory.

Indeed. It crawled across my dash with ~100 miles on the car. No way in hell he got in so quickly.

A few notes:

CF Buckets - Certainly a lot of debate about these on here. I have zero regrets getting the buckets. I think they are very comfortable and fit me perfectly. Getting in and out was defintely weird at first but I have gotten accustomed to it and after a few days now it's not something I even need to think about. I absolutely love being in them.

Mods - I have painted reflectors I need to install and will be ordering the IND front, rear and wheel badges with the outer chrome ring painted gloss black.

Reactions - Thumbs up and smiles from some other BMW drivers. Plenty of heads turning. No one has thrown up at the sight of it (sorry grille haters). Getting gas today had a guy ask me if the wheels were factory, he liked them. Had a woman at gas staion comment on how nice it was, asked if it was a 2021 and said how much she loved the M cars.

I will be doing a full detail, polish and ceramic coating myself.

Here are a few pictures. Nothing new to see here.
Great combo twin. I love the 825 wheels also. They def get a lot of attention and you hit on all the main points that I explain to ppl here alsl. Being an American that lives in Germany where they are very conservative, it does attract a lot of attention. Beautiful car and CONGRATULATIONS! 🙌🏽🙌🏽
