Will get some pics up soon.

Looks great in direct sunlight.

I am so pumped about switching from Silverstone to Sakhir. However, everybody is telling me that the red color will get me endless tickets, even if I don't drive too fast. Any evidence for that?

Had mine for just over 2 years now. No tickets. Though I've managed to get by without ever getting one in my 34 years of existence. I do definitely drive faster than the average person, but always keep my eye out and definitely don't do anything stupid when I think I shouldn't.

Hello high

This is my 2018 F80 M3 CP in Sakhir Orange.

Just love looking at it!

@Shoof: Awesome. Is it stock? Looks slightly lowered. Please tell me what mods you have on it.

BTW, I am amazed that I've not yet seen a SO 2018 M3 ZCP with black M666 wheels and icon lights.

Thanks!

It's lightly modified. Has some cosmetic add ons, as you can see, and I am lowered on Eibach Springs with MS Spacers (12F/10R). No performance modifications - yet!

SO is one of the M3 best color in the shade, especially when it's super clean.

Some pics from a track day I did last month...morning was a washout, and it cleared up after a few sessions, which is why you'll see some pics running with OEM's and some with my track wheels/tires (EC-7):

Cmw2738 · 11-19-2017, 12:05 PM

As much as I thought I would prefer the black 666 wheels against the SO, after seeing them in the photos posted above (thanks guys) surprisingly I like the silver 666 better. I feel they provide just the right amount of contrast with the other black pieces on the car. Thoughts?

I thought the same until seeing the black 666 with SO in person. Tasty.

Guess I need to withhold judgement until I see those black 666s in person.
