They probably just figured at this point most people will probably wait for the new generation of M3... unless they offer an absurdly expensive "special edition" that they can cash out on.

Bring on the new M3 already and enough with this nonsense!

Resale when they go back to the US should be pretty good?
Just because they're only making 20 doesn't mean good resale value. Most will see it as just another M3 with a few added appearance parts most of which you can buy separately and maybe even cheaper.

I've been to a BMW factory and I swear that is the primer color they paint the cars before the final coat.



I think its official name is "bleh"

Looks fake. Pics look photoshopped (look at how the wheels are sitting). Also the headlights are older MY and the M3 badge is not of the comp pkg. good try though.

I like my SO M4 a lot better. This M3 looks to ordinary to be a limited (!) production car.

The stitching that came with my 2016 M4 with Executive Package and Black Full Merino Leather is actually Silverstone Gray, not white.

I used fabric dye markers to dye it orange. It looks pretty good but it would have looked a lot brighter if the stitching had been white instead of gray.

I understand it's a trendy special edition but assides from the price, I'm not a fan of these various flat gray colors.

Do you guys have these in the showroom or are they allocations? Those 4 listed on the website for $80,200 have been there for a couple weeks but they make no mention of this package.

agree.
make one special edition with substantial changes and unique features that will differentiate from others and the value will be different.
With so many Special editions you learn that nothing is special anymore.

Also, the price I ridiculous, you can get pretty much all that jazz just by ordering an Individual car tailored to your specs.

People...does anyone else tire of these "package" options they try to push off as "special"...I mean really, if your going to call it 'Velocity', then put some VELOCITY behind it. And not the marketing type, but some real honest to goodness velocity.

Pitty the fools who get suckered in on something like this.
