It's almost like the redesign was focused on this color entirely. It looks good in bsm

You'll get used to it they say. It's the same reactions every time with a new M3 they say.

Nope. Almost a year later, still not interested. A 6MT is not enough to overcome having to look at it.

It's a shame cause I have to explore the preowned market now.

It's an ACC (radar) sensor, you only get it if you option the driving assistant professional.

The LCI probably gets a LIDAR, and from what we heard it might be better integrated, we'll see.

Have to conclude, that nothing is more awesome than the M quad exhaust design.

Not at all. With most cell phones you’re able to zoom in and for the shot he’s asking for zoom out using the dial.

I agree, this has driven me crazy forever. I don't know why no one takes side pics, even when it's outside and there is plenty of room to stand back.

As much as it's right there, I felt like it was a little less conspicuous when I saw the car in person.

dark colours should camo the overall design of Gxs and make it look more appealing. Black does it the best, I think...

I actually both black and white interiors, and IMO black is actually harder to keep clean as it shows all of the dust, fingerprints, etc... either way you go you just need to do a weekly vacuum and wipe down of the interior.
