Ok. In real life it's pretty cool.

Live from Cupertino. Me and and another Australian. He thought Whoah. Just Whoah.

I said. Hmmmm. I have to study this. Then. Well. Yes. Yes, it does look rather nice in real life. I’ve had a fair number of beers at this point. Cupertino is like a simulation. Not many humans. Like that movie Jim Carrie was in.

Anyhow. Consider me a convert. Anything other than my little pony blue. It’s pretty damn nice. Actually. Really nice.

Obsess and look at it a lot more and even that my little pony blue starts to look good, particularly with a lowering kit and the right wheels.

I’ve already gotten more “Nice car bro!” compliments in the last 3 days than I did with my M240 in the last year lol

Agree, I have been followed, filmed on the highway, thumbs upped, jaw dropped standing around. People love this thing in person.

I've experienced similar reactions, well, so far have not observed anyone filming me on the highway, but a few days ago I was clearly being followed not by a scumbag in a crummy beat up thing but someone in a nice but older BMW.

In the short time I've owned this car -- bought it April 14 -- I have received more favorable comments on it and favorable reactions to it than any other car.

The blue color often gets special mention.

I don't need this assurance I bought the "right" car, I'd love the car just as much if it received no mention or even unfavorable mentions. (As I drove my 996 Turbo past some guy I heard "Nice VW".)

little pony blue

I love this so much and reinforces my want for blue

Looks great in the photo—still haven’t seen one in real life!

Davil If you're from Australia but you're over here in Cupertino, CA... I'm assuming you probably work for Apple or your friend who bought this car probably does. LOL

That seems about right.

You know. I thought I could have been wearing beer goggles hence my reaction. Not sure if you have that expression in the US? We’d probably had about 8 beers each.

But now I look at the photos again they look bloody good. The Germans should pay me in beer to take press photos. It’s a really cool looking car.

Ha. Close. I’m an app developer over here for meetings and stuff. No idea who owns the car but I reckon you are probably right. I’ve seen so many M2s around here. Just the one G series though.

Oh yes. Love the weather here! Warm sun that doesn’t cook you like a BBQ with a nice cool breeze and really cool at night. Perfect.
