Finally picked her up today. Absolutely gorgeous car in person - photos really do not show this car well. I was getting so much attention on RT-17 on the way home. Even at quarter throttle, I could tell this thing is a beast. Love the sound in Sport/Sport+. But my favorite part was the steering - RAZOR SHARP.

Congrats. Black on a Bimmer, classic.

Congrats! Beautiful! Now, we can know if a M3 is manual or auto! Happy Shifting!

CanuckM · 03-13-2021, 09:06 PM

Looks stunning in BSM! Give us your thought on the manual transmission!!

What interior did you go with?

I can't wait to experience this steering that everyone talks about.

Zirenz2006 · 03-13-2021, 09:09 PM

Congrats! looks great

I can't wait to get mine

buckybadger · 03-13-2021, 09:11 PM

Congrats how's the steering feel?
Some reviews say that it's kinda numb, is it true?

I got the regular black seats which are super comfy.

I'd say the 6MT is very good overall - clutch is light, though I do wish the pick up point was a bit lower. rev match works really well, and you can easily turn it off too. pedals are PERFECTLY placed for heel and toe. Shifter is slightly rubbery that's typical BMW and I'm probably spoiled because my first car was a 2001 Honda Prelude which had the best shifter ever. But it is waaay better than say something like C7 Corvette shifter which had the most rubbery shifter I've ever driven.

It's only numb in the comfort mode - but in sport plus, it is RAZOR SHARP and the difference is night and day.

I went to the dealer to get a peek of mine before Monday’s pick up and you are absolutely correct the regular black seats are perfect looking. If I didn’t opt for the CFB I would’ve been totally pleased with those. Beautiful car.
