New to the forums and new-ish to BMW (had a '95 318i w/ 150,000mi years ago).
Anyway, wanted to introduce myself as I will be a frequent contributor to the forums, as I was with my previous car forums (318i, MB E500, FoST, STI). Long story short, I bought a new 2021 WRX STI in October 2021 (after months of waiting) and someone rear ended me going 50+ and totaled it 2-months later in December. With some broken spinal vertebrae and head trauma I decided to step it up and get an M3... After months and months of waiting, my G80 MT was dropped off at the dealership today! The dealership is doing PPF, Ceramic Wheel coating & Tints before I pick it up but I should be taking delivery next week sometime. I live in SoCal and I ordered the car from a BMW Dealer in the PNW so I gotta fly up to Washington to take delivery, then put it on a truck back down to SoCal… Totally worth it @ MSRP. Specs: 2022 G80 M3 Manual Base + Portiamo Blue + Fjord Blue interior + Bi-color 19/20's + Shadowline Package + Laser Lights + Exec. Package + A/C Seats + CF Interior Trim + Red Brake Calipers + CF Roof Order Info: + Placed order Jan 2022 + Est. Prod. Week 17 + Finished Production 4/27/22 + On a Boat - 5/5/22 + Arrived in Port Hueneme (CA) - 6/16/22 + Finished VPC - 6/17/22 + Picked up by truck - 6/26/22 + Arrived @ Dealership - 6/28/22 Will post pics once I take delivery! Looking forward to years of fun. Cheers! -Freshly

Congrats! Nice spec.
Hope you're doing well now after that crash. I hear back injuries like that can be tough to fully shake. I'm in the San Diego area and also looking to order a M/T M3. I'm on a waitlist at MSRP but the list is long so I'm hunting for more. Would you be willing to share the dealership or advisor you're working with? Can't wait to see more pictures when you take delivery! |

Awesome! I will be sure to upload lots of pics, I'm really hoping the color combo looks as good as I think it will.

My dealer didn't seem to think so, as they were hesitant to submit an order for a blue on blue M4 in the event I decided to cancel. Can't wait to see your pics!
