German Configurator is up and running on BMW.DE

www.bmw.de

-Biggest disappointment is the lack of interior colors for me! There are literally only 4!
-Can’t have ventilated seats with carbon buckets (pretty much expected)
-No active cruise with a manual
-All rim designs are available throughout, that’s a good thing as I don’t think anyone wants 18 inch rims with a manual!
-Carbon buckets available with both M4 and M3 including manual transmission!
-No Alcantara roofliner (WTF BMW!)
-Blackaout trim package available on all models!

Pretty good all things considered but the lack of interior colors on the most popular m cars is strange to say the least!

If that's the case, the cars with that interior are gonna be worth like 10k more on Bring a Trailer than black or Silverstone I spend too much time on that site...

Guess I'm the only one that thinks nothing about this car flows looks wise. The interior is nice. Hell, the sexiest thing on these cars is the MPerformance gas cap.

You can always give it a try and change the domain and language in the URL if the configurator is not yet available in your country. I was able to access Polish configurator that way.

The M4 is really ugly. The M3 however, I can see me possibly driving that. The proportions are much nicer.

I can't find the option in the configurator to make the car actually look good. Looks like the E46M3 values will keep going up at this rate.

Everything is truly sexy about the car, except for the front end. I suspect an LCI / front end refresh happening sooner than expected for their design team, hell there probably working on it now. I was reading comments about finding colors to hide the front grille, We shouldn't have to pick a color to disguise the front grille on a 70-90k car, that's just ridiculous.

OMG - the Dravit Grey on the M3 is amazing. I would be tempted to get this to replace my F90 next year when the AWD is out.

I think i can get past the grill with dark colors and no plate, but those headlights are so lackluster and far away from anything bmw. they're just so boring, and "tuner"

All this track focus etc... car still comes in at about 75K in UK, which means its going to be about 100+ in Canada.

It is sinfully ugly front, when they JDM it out with all the parts, it looks like an ugly GTR. The rear pipes are like rip off from what alfa would do or Ferrari California.

No chrome surround due to US market. Well I suppose this says it all. Designed by this Forum. LOL

Are the ventilated seats an option or included on the non-carbon buckets?

They did this to get more $$$ because their interior color choice are the worst ever.

I mean a true orange and baby blue, why???

Both literally go with nothing unless you want a Halloween black/orange car. Those should have been the optional individual colors.

Really needed a true red and blue interior choice like all other companies give on their sports cars. Why does BMW refuse to offer red?

Why? Because of what you first said. These interior color choices are something a child would pick.

Not for nothing not having the US configurator but using the UK brings an M3 right in at $100K for the options I would want.

I am shocked to hear a Yas owner say that! LOL

(As a former YMB owner who would get every car in YMB until the end of time, please don't take offense).
