Here's my Black Sapphire Metallic G80 M3 with the Stradale Design Carbon Fiber Lip Made in USA

Mine is at the dealership! So close, yet so far; I can't pick it up until Friday. Posting some potato photos right now, but will followup with better shots this weekend.

Credit where credit is due too, my man Bob at BMW of Ridgefield has really come through throughout the process!

I have purchased my last 3 cars from Newport. No reason other than I have gotten better pricing there. Sales guys are generally decent.

Do you know how this compares to Sonax? It seems much cheaper than sonax.

Looks fantastic! I have a G83 in BSM on order and can't wait.

Question - Is the rear spoiler standard on the car? I don't see it when I build my car on bmwusa.com.

i've never tried Sonax but im a big fan of this stuff. it really makes cleaning the wheels a breeze. im also pretty fond of the Adam's product, as well...

It is definitely standard on the G82, I don't know if there's some change for the G83 because of the soft top? When you look at the carbon pack for either the G82 or G83, it specifically says on the G82 that it includes the deck lid spoiler, but the G83 doesn't mention it. Same price for both, but the pack is generally considered a steal at thousands less than OEM retail aftermarket.

Looks like maybe the G83 doesn't include it; maybe the ordering guide will show for sure.

My car ('22 M3Cx) arrived at the dealership and my SA sent me this photo. Taking delivery next week! I feel like a kid.

I’m biased because I have a G82 Xdrive on order but black is by far the best color for this car .

I agree. Ive had two black M3's in the past and swore I would never do black again (had jet black, the worse, then BSM on my M4 which was much easier to deal with). But BSM looks real nice on the G80.

I was close to doing Dravit. But that orange flake is too much for me.

I went with BSM and Fiona red full interior, carbon inside and out. I CANT WAIT to get my hands on it!

Nice color combo M3! I just ordered my m3 2022 black with ivory white interior but Im thinking about changing it to fiona red. You mind sharing some more interior pictures and any comments about your interior color? Thank you!!

Just picked up this girl on Saturday. It was an order car that someone backed out of and I just happened to be there to pick it up!
