Pics of my F83 M4 Convertible

Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

I am totally biased but I love this car and it has nothing to do with the fact I am picking her up on Saturday. BMW have got the styling and opulence spot on for me. Even though our UK roads and crap compared to you lucky North Americans, I will enjoy sitting in traffic jams.

Saw her again today, I was having withdrawal symptoms! Managed to take a couple of pics with the roof down. Like all 'expectant fathers' say, the pics just do not do it justice!

Here are some pics from a week ago when she had just come off the transporter, still had the transport blocks in place so riding a little high.

Bradley, the detailer, has done his magic and texted me a few pics today. He has done a fantastic job & I would highly recommend him (http://www.concours-detailing.co.uk/), soooooooooo excited. Will probably drive her home at 5mph, park her in the garage and be too afraid to drive her for the next year!

Thanks everyone for your lovely posts, you guys are great. Emotionally exhausted, drive home was nerve wracking, gave a car's width to every kerb. Unbelievable machine, even love the sound. More pics....

Yes TB, I had originally picked MG but changed my mind, now seeing it I am glad I did. I also like the Moonstone pics released recently, definitely love the individual colour range.

DeeKay · 08-31-2014, 06:39 PM

That is one sweet colour! Must say the slight drop in dynamics might be worth it for that sun, air and noise level to be enjoyed all summer :-)

DeeKay · 08-31-2014, 06:41 PM

That is one of the most beautiful colours - big congrats with the "new baby".

GrussGott · 08-31-2014, 07:02 PM

Very nice! hmmm ...

IMrMark · 08-31-2014, 08:45 PM

OK, I was skeptical about vert but... Those TB pics look boss. Damn that's nice. Congrats!

Thanks guys for your positive comments. A pity we don't get as much sun this side of the pond. Do you guys get the black wheel option? I have seen the M3/4 on 18" wheels and, IMO, it looks wrong.

Is that SS interior or Opal White?

(I've ordered an F80 in TB with SS interior, but either way will appreciate many many pics from you as I wait for delivery.....)

Great color combo!

It is SS, I think it contrasts TB beautifully, will be interesting to keep it clean. I will definitely post more pics. I am getting a new car detail done so hopefully it won't rain ever again!

Lynchmob6 · 09-01-2014, 10:34 AM

I like that color a lot…congrats!

Well, obviously I agree it is beautiful and only someone with great taste would choose it.....

What is the trim?

UK_ · 09-01-2014, 01:16 PM

Dash trim is blue shadow with high gloss finish which is standard in UK. I actually wanted to change to carbon originally but the Individual Colour locked the build slot. Having seen it I actually like it, partly because all UK cars have carbon fibre. Strange how things work out.

Interior colour is Silverstone.

Thanks for all your lovely comments, you guys are so friendly and thanks for welcoming me.

She is gorgeous!!

Can't wait to see more!
