Build

2023 M3 -- 6 spd manual (Originally a '22..not sure I like the dash on the '23's as much but I can probably get over that)
Dravit
Silverstone carbon buckets
Carbon interior
826M black wheels
Blue calipers --- but I don't think that's a '23 option so who knows what I will get.
Carbon exterior package
Shadowline
Laser lights
Sunroof (no carbon..)
Executive Pkg

I think that's it.

Nice, congrats on finally making progress!

AFAIK, the blue calipers are standard, and black and red ones are free options -- same as MY22. Ask your CA for the build sheet, and it should confirm all your options for the MY23 configuration. (Of course, you can't make changes once assembly begins, but at least you can identify any surprises.)

Pics are on previous page of it getting delivered to the dealership lot after hours.

There are no other good pics. It is so dirty and still has the packing tape and foam on it. Detailers orders are no one touch the car before he does.

It gets delivered to the detailer this afternoon at 1:00 pm. In another week or so I will have pics with it clean and will post those.

Posted in other threads, but wanted to share here as well, as a fellow Dravit Grey owner:

Went to Shaver Lake and Huntington Lake today. Was able to pull off the twisty road and got a nice shot of Bahamut amongst the green scenery. I highly recommend this drive for anyone that visiting Sequoia and Yosemite in Central California!

Nice! Love the roads in the Sierras. But, I'd have a hard time not choosing my Jeep or Tacoma up there. Good wheeling trails in that area. Bald Mountain, Brewer Lake... I'll have to figure out how to take the M3 and a 4-wheeler at the same time...

vkolarov · 08-02-2022, 07:45 AM

Full detailing job and ceramic coating done.
I have some pretty nice shots that I did with my DSLR, however, I cannot find enough time to properly edit them yet.

In the mean time, here are two quick snaps I did with my phone

vkolarov · 08-02-2022, 07:48 AM

And here is one more, showcasing the colour really nice

Yes great pictures and the car looks outstanding!

In the back of my mind the question was not how the car looked with a fresh detail, but how it would look during normal daily driving (dirty).

Mine was plenty dirty when I took delivery. I think that Dravit Grey does a good job hiding dirt. Meaning in normal life it doesn’t look horrible the way a slightly dirty black car does.

I’ll be sure to post some road trip pics later this winter.

NightWriter · 08-02-2022, 02:51 PM

Just picked up at PC today. Will post more later, but for now, I'll just say it's incredible. (And good meeting bozman42 and seeing his beautiful Portimao M3.)

Limegrntaln · 08-02-2022, 11:49 PM

I'm not that great at taking car pictures. But, its for the Dravit thread, so, here goes. Dropped, yesterday, on M Performance HAS. About 155 miles on the drop, now. The final 3 driveway shots are after a little settling.

Looking damn good with the drop!

I see 6 pictures of the same car with 3 different paint jobs. Got to love Dravit!

Truth, Dravit is so crazy. Another shade, just taken with my iPhone and uploaded. No photoshop, or lightroom, just camera, click, upload.

BigMoh · 08-03-2022, 01:04 PM

Anxious to see how my Dravit turns out after frozen PPF treatment.

Hello Friends!!

After 11 months and 2.5 weeks since my order, I picked up my car this evening. After all the highs and lows switching between 105/111/112 numerous times, it feels amazing to finally take it home.

Here are a few picts. More too come....

I have no problem with it and most of the others probably won't either, but you do realize you are in the "Official DRAVIT GREY G80 M3 / G82 M4 Thread", right?

Haha...no, no. Exactly what I was trying to avoid. I was only trying to suggest that there may be more conversation/sharing if it was in the same model of vehicle forum is all. You're certainly welcome to stay here.
