[VIDEO] Black M3 (with BMW Individual Amaro Brown Interior)

[ciaranob]

Found this thread which is very useful but leaves me guessing about Golden Brown having too much orange - however when you look at the official sheets I agree with a previous poster that it seems ore rust - definitely a problem with lighting and flash use when trying to compare - will try to get dealership to get samples before committing I guess!

Ha, I'm totally with you - I'm buying the car but HOLY CRAP does it sound awful in videos ...

I used to have a TORO OHV 4 cycle push lawn mower - thing could go through wet grass 1 foot high ... and when it did it sounded mean!

and slightly better than this car.

We might as well prepare for it - this car is going to famous for it's sound and not in a good way.

People are going to ask if we can mow their lawn when we're done with ours, or ask how the landscaping is going or if they can ride in our shrimp boat.

Nope it doesn't have the fold out door pockets either. Aside from the new technology i.e. high resolution screens, improved user interfaces etc... there is some de-contenting of interior interior attributes going on at BMW across the board. One such example is the rear console of the e92 series imparted a rear coupe feel. That's gone now. If anything, minus the cut out in the middle of the rear seats, the F30/F32 & F80/F82 series cars are virtually identical. A little leather on the dash does not improve the overall quality of the switchgear IMHO.
