Thanks for starting your own thread and sharing the excellent images of this rare color. Suspect your journey home from PCD provided some good seat time to get to know the LCI well. Looking forward to your future updates.

jzmundy · 11-13-2021, 06:06 PM

Kicking myself for not waiting on this color. Absolutely stunning. Enjoy!

next time! lol

2020X3MCDG · 11-13-2021, 09:06 PM

Love that color! Congrats!

Kevin_The_Clean1 · 11-14-2021, 01:47 AM

I really like this color & once I saw it in the options list for the LCI I knew it would be a hit.

DimM3 · 11-14-2021, 03:11 AM

Really nice colour!Congratulations!
Tartufo interior would be perfect with that colour as well !
Any more info on the exhaust?Axle back?

werke-t · 11-14-2021, 07:00 AM

Nice, I can appreciate the unique color thanks for sharing. I just joined the family this weekend as well, 2020 x3mc (preferred the pre-lci body style personally)

jdub486 · 11-14-2021, 10:13 AM

Stunning in green! I'd pair with Tartufo but the red looks surprisingly good. Wish BMW offered green on more models stock.

allinon72 · 11-14-2021, 10:38 AM

Congrats - it's the best new non-loud color for sure.

Kwmeo305 · 11-14-2021, 11:53 AM

Beautiful buddy! I’m awaiting patiently for mine to arrive. What shop are you using in Miami for installs etc…

RockinPA · 11-14-2021, 11:59 AM

Looks awesome! Congrats.

I just ordered an X3M comp. Build week 49. My spec sheet from the dealer says deletion of bmw digital key for some reason. Does your car have bmw digital key? I'm wondering if due to parts shortages, cars being built right now don't have it?

Anyway, beautiful color! Enjoy it!

r33_RGSport · 11-14-2021, 12:57 PM

Beautiful color. Congrats!!!

2kaccordocoupe · 11-14-2021, 02:40 PM

That green is beautiful.

Parnishka · 11-14-2021, 07:02 PM

just gorgeous! period

IJM Supra · 11-14-2021, 08:19 PM

Gorgeous color, don't see good greens that often anymore.

Happening to all of us. We've had ours about a month. Wireless charging too, which never worked well in any of my M's.

Trust me, when you get your car, that's not going to be on your mind. These things are awesome to drive and a great place to be while out for a drive.

Poffman · 11-14-2021, 09:27 PM

I have been looking at G80's and your red interior has me thinking. I've always had black interior but this is beautiful. Beautiful car.

Tartufo does look nice and would make it really classy, I would have prefer the white ivory interior or fiona red too but neither option was there. I've always wanted the sakhir orange and since this is my first M, I chose that instead.

In the end, I went for a XMAS theme car or Gucci inspired build. I would have gone with my school colors, Blue and Orange but decided against it.

its a Full exhaust, I got the titanium mid pipe as well. I ordered it and received in June.
