So, it finally did happen. While the process, at some points were extremely frustrating on my end (my personal friends knows what I mean), seeing the car in person, sitting in it all of that went away. I had expected one thing I originally requested, but I believe I misinterpreted what I had asked for so it didn't show on my build. I won't fault Irvine BMW for this as my instructions weren't clear. Actually, I wasn't even sure myself so... lol not their fault.

So here she is. I choose to name her Stella after a certain supermodel. Also, no my car isn't staying stock. My Akrapovic Diffuser (original one not redesigned one) and Akrapovic Evolution Exhaust are both going on. Also, some photos are a bit fuzzy, sorry about that. My digital camera I have is a tad on the old side. Oh, trying to consider if I should keep my Brixton Forged R10Ds or stay stack completely...

More photos and what nots will be on the way. I'll try to keep updating things as I mod my car bit by bit once again. My M3 is officially #6 F80 with this color, #13 including the F82s.

Love the color, looks great!

How can you write so much about a misunderstanding and not let us know what it is? :P

I think he did not order the Individual Tow Hook Cover option.

Justin.AutoTalent · 11-14-2017, 03:38 AM

That ride height though. Better fix that this week!

I requested an individual option (True individual interior part that required a Yes Nod from Maria and BMW NA) for my Nutmeg, basically adding some more leather parts to certain sections of the interior. However, I didn't ask correctly because it was not included. Honestly I should have known because it wasn't in my build sheet so I should have known. It wasn't my CA's fault as I didn't specify clearly what I wanted to be covered.

I had enough time as I asked before my car went into production early September. I didn't catch it or question it though at the time because I lacked some communication/misunderstanding on both sides.

lol, I know where they kept it. I didn't put it on because I'm getting my car clear braed so... my detailer would probably remove it anyway. :P

Shhhh. Let me take care of my stuff first I'll worry about my KW DDC and being unable to drive over speed bumps after. Oh I need to ask you about something. I can't say in public.

Wow... That looks sick bro!

AW BMW · 11-14-2017, 10:11 PM

Congrats Arcades, love that color. Hurry up and start the mods already, we know you will end up doing them anyway. I wonder if this color is anything like my truck's color, Tacoma pro in cement color. I would order an m3 in that color if i could. Anyway, great build!

YangEnterprise · 11-14-2017, 10:36 PM

I was @ Irvine BMW last night from 4ish to around 630ish...Saw this in person. She's a beauty...My Java Green M4 was parked in guest parking last night. Congrats!

Justin Slogar for service hands down both great honest people.

Thanks man :P I'm trying to take it slow on the mods lol. I already know the exterior mods it's just some things I'm trying to straighten out on my end first before I end up doing it.

I connected through Justin (another Justin :P) so I worked through that way. The mistake is mostly on me because I wasn't clear about what I was expecting. Actually GrussGott warned me way ahead of time that I need to be 100% clear on what I wanted for a individual option for interior. I wasn't so it slipped past everyone. Did notice because it was missing on my build sheet but it honestly isn't a big deal. It is just more Merino Leather to worry about lol.

Irvine is far too away for me to go there for service but I'll keep it in mind, thanks
