Signal Green too.

Such a cool color. Is there anyone in that line of work who put out better videos this year?

He is entertaining, he knows his way around a track and he tries to be honest about cars. All good qualities in my books.

mkoesel · 12-15-2015, 10:28 AM

Great looking car.

I like to believe he might even have read this forum leading up to that purchase.

Chris, if you are reading, enjoy that car. And please accept my personal apology for any shenanigans, bickering, and dysfunction that you may have come across before it got cleaned up. Hopefully the wealth of information available here impressed you enough to overlook those less appealing parts of the experience.

Fast4d · 12-15-2015, 10:31 AM

I LOVE his videos/car reviews

Doctor///M · 12-15-2015, 10:34 AM

Awesome!

BlackCobra08 · 12-15-2015, 10:43 AM

Chris Harris is now daily driving a nice looking 2016 Signal Green M3 with CCB for the foreseeable future! (provided by BMW UK I'm guessing?) https://www.instagram.com/p/_UYl7ZEcI7 I'm sure he will be posting his thoughts and findings as he uses it more during commutes around Europe, we already know he loved skidding it on the track sideways. I'm sure he'll post a video on it sometime next year

s0ul · 12-15-2015, 10:47 AM

God Damn! That's hot.

GOLFFRR · 12-15-2015, 10:55 AM

thats pretty cool! i always wondered how he feels getting into regular DD cars after experiencing all those INSANE cars.

Damn it, people need to stop ordering Signal Green F80s. That's what I want to do next year

Bickering? Who's bickering?

Why them's fightin' words....

(anyway, in an act of total sucking up, while you mods take shit from us from time to time I for one appreciate the work to keep this place organized, tidy and civilized)

Brosef · 12-15-2015, 11:11 AM

he's the man - the best journalist by a long shot. his taste in cars and the things he really evaluates seem to align with mine far more than what other journalists care about / nit pick about. not to mention, the cars he has owned are all such great choices in my book (Ferrari FF, GT3 4.0, e38 M5, e92 M3, to name a few).

glad to see him sporting an F80. I'm not sure what better validation a car could get than for someone who thrashes P1's LaFerrari's and 918's on the track to buy one.

Not sure if he is on the forums, last year Matt that works here had met up with him at the NY auto show and was showing him pictures of the shop M4, Matt mentioned Chris wanted yellow at the time. It seems he changed his mind though! I'm glad he got ceramics

Haha this is awesome! Yeah when a friend and I met him at the NYC auto show press day he mentioned he wanted a wild color like Techno, but we told him that was unavailable since Sal got declined on his F80 early on in production. He said he was leaning towards Atacama Yellow also and then we showed him the Signal Green M4 and he really liked it.

I should change that sig actually

With (what seem to be) an MPE

BwoodBMW · 12-15-2015, 11:52 AM

Not sure if he bought it or just secured it as a long term loaner like his beauty of a 991GTS but great looking car either way.

Signal Green would be quite a loaner. I don't know anything about that program, but that seems like quite a unique color for anything but a purchase/lease commitment.

Blksnowflake · 12-15-2015, 12:11 PM

Damn, have to say that looks incredible for some reason. Just menacing standing there parked on a rainy cold wet day. In the military, only the truly mean mofrackies play in those conditions.

Chris is the only youtube journalist I ever contributed money too...and that says a lot because I've only paid to participate on web forums and videos for just two sources, he's one, the other is a watch forum.
