Weather was great while I was up there! Sunny, no clouds and the car showed temps between 10 and 15 degree celsius.

I'd say that as long as its a sunny day you should be fine

In Colorado where I live, front plates are required. In 16 years I've lived here, I've been pulled over twice and gotten one fix-it ticket (knock on wood). Admittedly, what I'm doing is illegal, but I can't convince myself to put on a front plate. Any M car front end looks better without plates.

I have a BSM incoming. I also have SMB on order but it won't even go into production until Dec. Is it worth waiting for SMB over BSM?

I have SMB F82 CS and I drool over it everyday

I might be biased but I'd definitely wait for the SMB

I had a BSM F80 before the SMB G80.
It's a tough call.

Most people will say BSM is just another run of the mill black. But a freshly detailed and waxed BSM M car is absolutely a stunner.

You can't go wrong with either.

I have a question for you guys, I just changed my TBII delayed WK48 to WK 50 and now WK03, so I decided to change to SMB.

BMW is charging me an extra $2500 for a total of $4450. Is that discounted already? I have the 50th anniversary badges. Is the discount only in the US?

I believe it’s $3750 if you keep the anniversary badges and $4500 if you switch to the traditional ones. Didn’t know that and tried to argue it with my dealer for no avail. It is what it is and I’m happy with my traditional bmw badges!

Also you won’t regret the color change. It’s so true that pictures don’t do it justice!

Thanks for clarifying this. I will ask tomorrow, but I am overseas and may not applied over here.

I am glad I changed the color. I hope it doesn't cause me to pay the new 2023 price increase.
