Another Class of '13 Delivered:
Well here's my order, PCD today. I'll post up some good pics soon but its the familiar Space Grey/Fox Red combo with ZCP, 6sp, sunroof and wood trim =)
Say hello to my buddy Richard in the background. It was a rainy day in the morning with the track stuff but made it really fun. Also the *new* M5s are down for a bit for hot laps due to a lack of tires lol. Long story short Continental doesn't make a tire for the M5 (yet) and since they sponsor the center that's a problem. No worries as we got to use the '11 M3 E90s which was likely as fun. Also this was my first time doing the X5 offroad course, amazing SUVs. Man the front ends on these are slopped together, just spent 30-45min aligning the fenders, hood, bumper. Can't really see it in the pics but BMW should be ashamed a 70K+ car arrives with misaligned panels like this. Welp out to piddle with it some more. I'll post up some additional pics in a day or two.

Woohoo!! You finally got your car!!
Space Gray makes the M3 look most muscular IMO. MOAR pics when you stop driving...... Okay, we'll be waiting a week then. p.s. I like the wood trim too.

Congrats, especially on a great color choice. I agree the gaps on the front were annoying, but luckily you can't see those from the driver seat...

QUOTE] Awesome color combo. My favorite As with the comment above I totally agree. BMW has a LONG way to perfect fit and finish on their vehicles. Just thank god that there are other things about this car that make up for it tenfolds.
