I can't believe all the posts criticizing the OP's choice in wheel color. We are all BMW brothers and sisters here. The old adage is "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all" applies.
My new wheels go on next week and I plan to post photos. I can hardly wait for the outrage at my ugly new wheels.

If I am understanding the OP's post, this was not a factory special order color for the rims; the dealership probably found a local paint shop to do the work for the OP. The sky is the limit!

However they did the matching and painting in-house.

First proper wash. Velvet is stunning when clean!

Hello, congratulations for this amazing car !
I have one question, it’s true the MY23 models have cheaper materials? The sound deading in front wheel arch is different plastic only ? Thank’s and enjoy your beautiful beast 😃 |

Thanks a lot! I don't know about the sound-deadening, but I can tell you there's been a couple deletions due to cost-cutting for MY23. Things I know: - Individual leather no longer gets Individual floor mats with matching leather piping. You get 318i mats. - Extended leather no longer gets matching door cards. Only the seats are colored. You have to step up to Individual leather to get matching door cards, or go full leather on regular colors. - The "M3 Competition" badge from the center console was deleted. - The Interior door sills now say "M3" for all M3 models. Competition models used to get different door sills that said "M3 Competition".

Glad to see another Velvet Blue G80 out there! I wonder how we can see how many of us are in the world.
Can’t wait to see more of it! Here’s mine brother. 👋🏽 |
