My Individual Ferrari Red F80 w/ Golden Brown! *Updated New Pix pg 9-10*
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com My name is Chris and I just took delivery last Tuesday of my first ///M car! I have been following the F80 like most of you since the initial concept photos and the unveiling of the M4 at pebble beach. I have always dreamed of owning an M3. My first BMW was a Titanium Silver 2006 325ci that I bought certified in 2009. After driving the E46 for a while it confirmed my love for BMW. After I sold my E46 I knew my next car would be an M3. This is honestly my first sedan! I have always owned and been a fan of coupes. I love the M4 but I just couldn't stop thinking about how amazing the new F80 looked! As I watched all of your posts and individual builds I knew my first ///M had to be an individual. I was having a hard time deciding on color. My friends would suggest San Marino Blue, Atlantis Blue (which I absolutely love!!) Fire Orange, and Techno Violet (obviously can't get). As I browsed this forum like I do everyday, I saw the Seattle BMW Ferrari Red post. I couldn't get over it. I knew immediately that was my color! I have never owned or cared to own a red car, but this M3 was different. I can't believe the day has finally come that I can call my dream car mine! Please enjoy my crappy cell phone pics and terrible locations until I can find time for a proper shoot! Thanks everyone for checking it out! Taking delivery- After PDI, first couple of pictures. My brother pointing out someone's Sakhir Orange F80 The following photos were taken today at work. I just picked her up last night after having the M-performance splittlers and lip installed. Individual FerrariRot stamp under the hood Golden Brown Leather!! These are all I have right now, I will have better pictures soon enough. I would love to hear your opinions. Before I get blasted for the center caps, they are from "JB speed" which I saw a recommendation for on this site somewhere and bought them pre-delivery. They didn't fit the hood and trunk and I'm not feeling the grey ring so I'm planning on putting the OEM caps back in! As for additional mods, I have the Eibach pro kit and 15mm spacers that will be installed soon at PSI. I will also order the IND cosmetic package soon. Bigger mods down the line!!

Holy cow, nice combo! This is literally what I had in mind when I saw the FerrariRed F80s. And the fact that this is a 6MT really is the cherry on top. I still prefer Golden Brown over Amaro myself. Not sure why it's not as popular, but that would definitely be my choice. Nice to see someone brave enough to go with this combo!

Love it! Nice to actually see a red/gb combo. I've been considering a similar combo myself. Henna or Imola with golden brown. Don't forget yellow brakes now. |

Imola on GB would be so money. And the yellow brakes would break the internet

Would it be too Ferrari?? Love the idea! I was thinking color matched but I'm open to options. Not sure if color matched would wash out the look..

Gold brown is great isn't it! It looks great paired with Ferrari red I sometimes wish I got 6mt but I found this car on the dealer lot.
