M4 comp xdrive
Toronto red
Full fiona red
Red calipers
Laser lights, extended shadowline
Park assist
Executive package
Drive assist
Vented, comfort seats
Drive recorder
Carbon fiber interior

I think that's everything. Only regret is constantly wondering if I should have gone with bucket seats.

As a 6’2 225 and a daily car, no bucket seats for me! I instead went with exterior carbon package and man it looks amazing!! Your m4 has an awesome spac. I thought about red but I owned to many red bmws so had to switch it up

That makes me feel better about my seat choice. The exterior carbon package was very hard to not select. I did want it but decided on extra tech package items instead. This will be my first red car, I've always had darker shade colors. IoMG and dravit were the first color choices but ultimately ended up with red.

Glad you got what you need. I don’t need any of the driving assist staff. I am an old school guy lol. IMOG turns lot more heads than I was expecting. Wow! Red would do the same. Just sold my 992 GTS in shark blue and I am really surprised how much M3 also stand out compared to 911.

I work weird hours and late nights driving home when i'm tired its nice to have the car do more work than me. A big reason i went with this car, it seems to be able to do it all! Hearing your excitement about your car is getting me all jazzed up for mine! I love these forums, good people here that love cars. Shark blue is a pretty hot color. A co-worker has one. I've never owned a 911 but read a lot of these forums and you aren't the first to say they think the M stands out a bit more than the Porsche. I guess that's good or bad depending on what you are looking for in a car. Enjoy the ride! Just in time for some good weather up here finally. I don't think i've ever been this excited for a new car!

Oh you will love your M4! Not sure if you had M cars before but this B58 engine has so much more punch and torque and very smooth engine compared to S58 of last gen

Current M4 has the S58. The B58 is in the M340i, Supra etc...
Previous generation M car was S55.

Before you take the delivery make sure to take a good test drive. When I turn my steering wheel few inches to the left or right, it just sticks there and won’t go back to center. Feels like i am fighting with the wheel all the time. Lots of g80/g82 owners are going threw this and they got it fixed with a new steering rack. I might have to do the same. It’s not undrivable but really annoying
