Kief's 2018 Alpine White M3 CS

Kief · 01-08-2019, 02:29 PM

Just picked up this bad boy this morning...
Lots of quick pics, so be warned if using your phone, don't want it to turn into a brick!

Unloaded my 2018 Tanzanite Blue (God I'll miss that color

) M3ZCP. Got such a ridiculous deal on this stormtrooper, I don't know where to begin...right drexplode

Wanted to get in a quick first bath in the middle of winter (fun) and some Collinite 845 today. Unfortunately, winter shoes have to go on soon, but want to enjoy the look for at least another day or two!

Silvoxer · 01-08-2019, 02:34 PM

3 days after your poll - that was quick. Congrats!

boss2k · 01-08-2019, 02:48 PM

Wow, congrats ... you sure have lot of money to change cars like this

The two tone seats are amazing

FriedPiston · 01-08-2019, 02:50 PM

Congrats Kief! It's a shame the CS don't have Mineral White available over Alpine White, but looking forward to your new car this time around next year!

DS_BMW · 01-08-2019, 03:02 PM

Looks awesome!

yep I need a CS

AW BMW · 01-08-2019, 03:16 PM

Congrats, looks very sharp. I bet you can't wait for warmer weather to get a good feel for the car.

f80er · 01-08-2019, 03:31 PM

Congrats, test drove the same thing the other day. Nice tight feeling behind the wheel.

How much was the trade in hit?

clutchdj · 01-08-2019, 04:09 PM

The exterior really pulls all of the Alcantara and interior together. Thinking of flipping into one but man I need my manual.

NYBulldog · 01-08-2019, 04:22 PM

goddamn, I pulled up to te dealer next to one just like this in my M3... drool city. Congrats

zamboni · 01-08-2019, 04:53 PM

Congrat did you get a good deal?

Kief · 01-08-2019, 05:12 PM

Just finished some minor paint correction and one layer of a Collinite. I think dealership "detailers" (if you can even call them that!) wash their cars with Brillo pads!! Of course I told them not to prep the car before delivery, but they must attack these things once the come off the truck and take pics for their websites.

For everyone asking about my deal, give Reading BMW a call. They have one remaining BSM M3CS. Great guys to work with. Work with the SM directly. He told me I could post 12% off before $4500 BMW monies. I on the other hand, got an even stronger deal (much stronger)

Now go and negotiate

So it's like 85k around, depends on the MRSP?

Don't forget the undocumented BJ for the GM

Congrats Chief Kief on the CS. It's a beauty. SMB is the worst color and you know it

Congrats man, that's awesome, car looks great too . . . . May I ask a semi stupid questions though? What's the interest for the dealer to letting it go so low at the average customer, at that price wouldn't they be loosing money.
I'm currently looking for another M3 (not necessarily a CS though)

EricSMG · 01-08-2019, 08:49 PM

Would love a candid review/comparison against your outgoing ZCP.

GERMAN M3 · 01-08-2019, 08:50 PM

Congrats Kief....great looking vehicle.

M3SQRD · 01-08-2019, 09:13 PM

Congrats on the CS! AW is an awesome classic BMW color

It's all about moving the inventory...cars that sit are losing money everyday. Snagging the deal at the right place, at the right time, also makes a big difference
