'22 Tanzanite Blue II with Oyster finally arrived!

G30Nashville · 12-14-2021, 10:35 AM

Local dealer was given a few supplemental cars to sell, and this one just so happens to be spec'd just the way my wife would have ordered it - so I'm surprising her for Christmas! Just came off the truck last night. Taking delivery tomorrow and will have to hide it for another week.

Has M Sport Package 1 & 2, Premium package, DHP, & Blue M Sport brakes!

Would've loved to get a M40i, and they had a black one coming in (still available I think) but it was pretty bare on options.

That's a really nice present!! Where's the giant red bow?

TX3M · 12-14-2021, 01:16 PM

Gorgeous color combo, congrats!

CurryPuff · 12-14-2021, 01:25 PM

Great combo! if you're interested, BMW of Mountain VIew (other side of the country for you) have a tanzanite with cognac, with fantastic options available still (includes HK sound).

ironxcross · 12-15-2021, 12:10 PM

Wow beautiful color in that light. Should make for a nice present!

Bimmerforlife · 12-15-2021, 12:19 PM

I like this color combo. However I wear a lot of jeans and would be afraid color would transfer?

I had white leather interior in my last Mercedes which got a fair amount of color transfer from jeans but there are products you can buy to clean it and protect it to mitigate color transfer. I never found anything to completely prevent. A little extra maintenance if you want light colored seating. I wouldn't even dream of it with young kids.

joesid · 12-15-2021, 02:22 PM

Looks like it came with the shadowline headlights too!

G30Nashville · 12-15-2021, 09:20 PM

Officially ours….just have to hide it until Christmas lol.

Nice! Congrats. Are you going to wrap the fob in a box and have her it for the surprise?

Rik762 · 12-16-2021, 04:40 AM

" have her" Yes that would be a surprise!

The topic was discussed many times. No need to worry. Just wash the new jeans before getting into the car and use some proper cleaning/protection on the leather. That's it.

Beautiful color combination, btw!

If you have a garage, park it in there the night before and wrap up the key and have her open that.
