Hello everyone!
Let me first start by saying it has been terrific seeing people finally taking delivery of this remarkable vehicle both meeting, and in many cases surpassing expectations! I have never been so excited for a vehicle, and honestly with the exception of adding a few minor appearance items, and help of IND, I will be adding black front grills/side markers, and color matched reflectors.
This is primarily due to the fact that to me, this car is visually as close to perfect straight off the line as a car could get. I have not said that often, if ever. Now this is somewhat due to having the opportunity to order all the extra little goodies I typically pass on, or do not find them of interest at the time of order. Only to find myself adding them and retrofitting things down the road.
With that being said, as we all know, the M3 and M4 are very much alike. With the M3 being slightly wider (73.9 vs 73.6) and due to the rear quarter panels being shorter on the M3, visually it allows the width/flare to really stand out in a much more aggressive fashion than the M4. Because the M4 rear quarter being longer, it allows the flares to blend more subtly and over a larger surface area. Personally I love the M3's aggressive flares. Though one of the benefits of the M4, it allowed engineers to utilize a CSL style boot lid, where the M3 gets a nice little "speed bump."
Does anyone know if a CSL boot lid is feasible on the M3 (if only for appearance purposes)? I am sure someone is probably looking into this, if not already working on one as we speak.
Thank you for your time, and I appreciate anyone who might have a chance to photoshop what this might look like (in any color).
Though if you could by chance do it for a Alpine white M3, that would be even better! (after all it is the fastest)
