Finally got it!

Picked up my Moonstone M4 this afternoon.I am really impressed so far with the car & quite happy that I waited for the Moonstone as it is quite spectacular in person.

Congrats, please try to take some pics over the coming weeks with different lighting conditions. This color has few consistent pics here (with same car and camera) in different lighting conditions. It would help many members choose a color.

Looks lovely, but more photos please!

These look like SS but (and I have seen moonstone on a different car) in real life it has much more brown tinge than blue/pure silver.

Great choice, though and congrats.

I am really enjoying this car!

Some Observations

Sounds ok with the stock exhaust system especially in sport & sport plus.

Ride is firm but not harsh,very comparable to my M3 ZCP which was great,

much more relaxed cruiser 2500rpm @ 140kph with great fuel milege 9.3l/100 on my commute this am.My E92 was 10.8 on the same drive.

The steering is a non issue as it tracks well and seems quite accurate.I am using sport +

The interior with the full leather & carbon trim is a very significant upgrade over my E92

Seats are very comfortable.

Tons of torque in mid range and virtually no lag in sport setting

The DCT is much more refined in normal use and is virtually seamless in operation.

I am quite impressed with the changes after having 2 E92 M3's over last 6 years.I cannot wait to track it.

That is so pretty I didn't want to erase the pic links. Congrats op. De-badge and that's perfection.
