My Individual Velvet Orchid M3

purpl3ish · 03-18-2023, 05:08 PM

Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

So i decided to stay part of the “purple” family and ordered this M3 back in July of last year. Loved the color when I saw it on the front page on Bimmerpost and it wasn’t a very common color chosen.

I know it’s not going to be a lot of people’s flavor or choice, but the color is amazing in person and in the daylight and also looks different at night.

I never got to get a real ‘daytime’ photo shoot of the car completely stock but I’ll have some nicer pics of the car coming soon with some add on’s. Shout out to BMW of Turnersville and Glenn for getting me the allocation and car and making the process seamless !

Just sharing a few pics I took during delivery and shortly thereafter. All in all I love the color and the car, and a huge difference between my G20 M340 and this..glad to be back with the M family..

Reminds me of frozen berry.

a5m · 03-19-2023, 01:15 AM

WOW...this might have just become my favorite color. Amazing how transformative it is from day to night. Beautiful! Congrats

achawla10 · 03-19-2023, 01:44 AM

Great color! We have almost the same build except I have twilight purple! Yay!

cfm56d7b · 03-19-2023, 01:55 AM

What an amazing color. Congratulations!

Powerbeast · 03-19-2023, 09:21 AM

Whoa!! I think with some proper wheels and suspension this one will be a winner!

Mowe · 03-19-2023, 10:41 AM

Different and in a very good way. Congrats 💪🏼

Jackie Chiles · 03-19-2023, 02:57 PM

This is over the top cool!

My only complaint is that it should have black wheels, but that is a minor point.

TitanNut88 · 03-19-2023, 05:30 PM

Not for me but man, that looks special! Congrats!

FoxberryJam · 03-19-2023, 08:37 PM

10 out of 10 for uniqueness! I bet you’ll get asked if that is a wrap quite a bit. Not my cup of tea, personally - but I love when people go for these really unique colors - cheers!
