Agreed with this. This is overpriced crap. Way too much for an M4.

Scorp!on · 10-23-2020, 01:19 PM

to be honest there are 2 things I like:

1. the interior color is awesome (beside the kith logos)
2. the badge on the front. Make one without Kith crap on it and I would instantly buy it, the color scheme is stunning!! maybe someone knows where to buy a similar ?

Everyone needs to save up for their dream car before autonomous driving becomes standard and car companies stop making "sports cars" because of it. Unless a Tesla is your dream car...

I did say brand and not company, and that brand should be very obvious from my post

. This specific brand has been receiving pretty steady positive reviews, even praised, from the driving enthusiasts crowd and press. Even their EV offerings are seen as good driving machines. That might change in the future, but for now, that’s where I’m going.

Stop complaining this is great marketing for the company. A way to shine light on the new M3/M4 generation in a market where people usually don't care about cars at all. *Fashion Industry*

washed up? please explain how that term fits into not knowing what Kith is. Because generally that means no longer successful, which has nothing to do with knowing obscure fashion brands.

Washed up as in not in tune with the current state of modern day culture whether its fashion or cars or both

Not even cosmetics. Just

- Different bucket seats
- A roof sticker
- A trunk badge

Total: $40K

This is for the crowd that pays $5,000 for a $2,100 MacBook because it has a Supreme sticker.

Maybe they'll come out with a Debbie Downer collaboration for all of the haters.

Nah. Just wondering why the huge decal on the roof and the $40K price tag that's all.

Yes but they all do it better lmao, and you cannot group Palm Angels with those others, different tier though Balenciaga is whack

Who even buys Kith, reminds me of ASSC lmao
Kith is not new school, its a dying brand

Now a collab with Thom Browne would be fire, both uses stripes, both are luxurious premium brands, business casual

cca101 · 10-23-2020, 01:50 PM

Looks like I can't get a manual M4 Kith edition....darn

Prissy · 10-23-2020, 02:05 PM

Copped a tee and the ashtray. I am a Kith fan, got some of their vintage tees from the early days. but I would never slap his logos on my car lol.

Kith is dying?! You have no idea clearly. Thom Browne!

Guess it's sold out.

I think this KITH is a bit tacky. I’m sure you’ll find them in short time for 40-50k off as used cars in a couple months.

As for passion, I do still think Porsche is passionate about it what they’re building across the line up.

gs1403 · 10-23-2020, 02:24 PM

Wtf is Kith and why do we care. First that terrible ad and now this..who are they trying to market this car to. Apparently not BMW enthusiasts.

Those would be dope but imagine the markup on a Dior M4 Comp Limited Edition

I think BMW is looking to market itself as a futuristic, sporty, fun looking brand and leaving the more mature luxurious look to Porsche & Benz

I personally like the approach but I see your point

Which I guess is what will happen when you try to do a new one of these types of things every month on top of 4 other drops.

Look at his E30 build, it was elegant, well-done, low key, no huge decals on the roof, no ///Kith badge, it was tastefully done.

You take this G80 Kith and remove the decal, remove the ///Kith badge and the color, interior etc it's very nice.

This is tasteful:

I'm not saying it all sucks. I bought one of the sweaters today. Couldn't roll the dice on a cardigan not fitting (because their return policy sucks, naturally).

But you can only do 100 item collections with Coke (and everyone else) so many times before it feels redundant. And that's all I'm saying - this should feel like one of their biggest collabs ever, but short of the last-minute announcement that there's a 6-figure car you can buy, it feels like just another Friday.
