X3M/X4M Random photos thread

Post up your random photos!

I went on another social distancing drive today and burned 50 more break-in miles. I'm loving the capability of this rig. The X3MC was in good company with Porsche, Holden, Ferrari, Corvette, and a Lambo Gallardo that had to head back before the pics. Enjoy!

With the stay at home order had a chance to get the whole fleet cleaned up for a picture.

Love how the two bimmers kicked the two fords out of the garage. But, seriously, beautiful vintage Stang!

All is well now. They attempted to enter both cars, but fortunately all lights and cameras were activated, which somewhat deferred them. I did some of my own investigation and discovered the the car's plate number and model. I attached a photo if anyone ever sees the car in the tri-state area. It's a white Honda Odyssey mini-van. I'm good friends with a few of the undercover cops in the area so I'm not really worried of the outcome or it happening again. Luckily I always lock my cars.

It's a long list
  • Tint (front/side windows) and PPE (in progress this week)
  • M Performance items : Steering wheel, CF trim, CF shifter, front and rear trim (tbd)
  • Lowering (deciding)
  • A few IND items (black painted roundels), a few color matched accent pieces
  • Exhaust (likely Akra as I had on my previous ones)

But the list never gets shorter

Sounds very similar to what I did/am doing. Which PPF did you choose?

Ugh, I'm starting to get a mild case of Toronto Red envy. When I first saw the car, it seemed awfully orangey to me, but I do like that red in certain lights. Damn it.

It's a different type of red for sure. I direct sunlight it does look orange but most of the time it looks like a nice sports car red with some pop thanks to the silver metallic in the paint. BMW would be wise to add this color to the next gen M3/4 and M2 as those cars are begging for a good red.

Toronto red is awesome. If my driving was more respectful to speed limits, I would have gone for it.
Wife even signed off on it if I wanted.

It will mostly look orange in Florida.

Thanks for talking me down. We had an X5 in Imola Red some years ago. That was a gorgeous rig in that color. I would have loved the X3 in Imola Red. I really wasn't looking to replace a blue car with another similarly blue car, but it was the only color offered that I liked for a number of reasons. So here I am, & I do like it, but....

Yeah there's quite a story there, which I don't really know but sounds like this was a special find and import. He buys some sort of paper registration repeatedly and apparently doesn't have to put WA plates on it somehow. Such an awesome 348.
