2016 YAS Marinas Blue F80 - But I thought I wanted Silverstone!
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com I walked away thinking man do I want that car.....but I thought I wanted Silverstone?!? People talk about the OCD when you own one, but this vasilating on what to buy is quite maddening.

better think twice about that silverstone interior if you are going to have your two little boys in there very often... It does look amazing though....

I'm getting Silverstone exterior and Sakhir Orange interior. Try looking at that combo. It's sweeeeeet. It's also very nice in M3 form. But to your SS interior....I wanted that too....but it will be Very hard to keep up. I asked one of the members here who got his M4 1 year ago - and he said if he had to do it all over agin, he would not have gotten the SS interior, as it's too hard to maintain.

I thought you were literally telling my story. I wanted Silverstone, was going to wait until the '16's come in, but my local dealer had only ONE M3. And it was YMB on SS interior. I took an uber to Lexus to look at the RC-F one last time and when I went to the lot to decide on which color, the managers car was sitting there. The Lexus manager drove an M4 in YMB.
I was sold. Went to BMW, immediately got it, and by the time I left 4 people gave me compliments. You won't regret it. And with 1500 miles on it and 3 months later, from someone who wears jeans daily, the upkeep isn't as bad as you'd think. I have yet to get an interior detail. It's not WHITE. It's literally a silver/gray. Holds up fine. Pull that trigger. |

I loved the SS/SS as my first choice. And then YMB showed up and had the exact same effect on me. Give it a few days. Because the YMB wowness eventually wore off. The SS is just such an easy color to love, everyday -- on low days, on high days. It goes under the radar most days unless you put your settings in sport plus, and floor it. The lines it shows on this car is amazing, and it changes color on every shade of light. It is classy, without being at everyone's face.
I would suggest you to think twice about SS, esp. since you've already picked it as your favorite. YMB and AY are great colors to look at, but hard to live with every day, IMO. Oh, and here are all the pictures I took to help me fight the battle between SS and YMB: http://1drv.ms/1QBKz9E In the end, SS/SS won by far

I did contract work for one car manufacturer and if that happened, the offender will get a warning for first offense and told to immediately remove the car; and if it happens a 2nd time, you're a goner. There's nothing to stop the employee from owning another brand but don't bring it work. And this unwritten rule is not limited to cars. I heard, for example, no Apple employee is allowed to own a Samsung phone or any product that competes with Apple and bring it to work. It not only makes sense, it's common sense. |
