Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

My girlfriend sent me this picture this morning lol.

She said she saw it on instagram. Does anyone know where this is from?

For any Houston folks who are unaware........M3 / M4 are there per this article. Show started today and runs through the weekend. I will attend tomorrow after work, and will nab some pics and write up a review.

Personally, im in the market for the m3, but will check out both in detail.

i'm really impressed with mineral grey. I still have plans to order mineral white but this color looks gorgeous. will wait for your pics

solstice · 01-22-2014, 06:45 PM

I wish Mineral Grey looked like that. It's way to light in that picture, it looks like Space Grey here. Very strong lightning and a bit over exposure.

That has to be mineral grey!! They wouldn't show singapore or space greys here since the car won't come that way. That really looks good!!!! More pics please!!!!

m3rxn · 01-22-2014, 07:15 PM

Can't wait to hear your impressions, esp of the beige.

TunedM2C · 01-22-2014, 07:25 PM

This looks great. Better than the AY which has (visually) been beaten to death.

Black Gold · 01-22-2014, 07:42 PM

From what I saw, I think the m3 is in ay in Houston

Desmond Is My Constant · 01-22-2014, 07:46 PM

Whats up with these colors BMW picked for the launch. They are just terrible. Apart from the blue M3, rest has been just boring.

Umm what? Personally, I'm happy to see other colors besides AY and YMB. I hope they have a launch car in every color (except AW, I know what that one looks like).

Needsdecaf · 01-22-2014, 08:00 PM

Wooo hooo!!

i'll be there this weekend! Was hoping to go today but couldn't make it.

Needsdecaf · 01-22-2014, 08:03 PM

Houston....compare the pics.

Mineral Grey wasn't even a contender for me but it looks good. I'm just not overly impressed anymore with Silverstone II.

Real Deal · 01-22-2014, 09:31 PM

That is my choice for my M3 just need to figure out the interior and the beige is kind of tempting.

messm6 · 01-22-2014, 10:01 PM

I'm leaning towards Mineral grey with the Amaro brown individual interior for the F80!
