- Aurum Dust was a stage name. It's official name is Austin Yellow
- Only the CF roof is standard. We now know other CF parts like the lip, the tailpipes, and the diffuser are M Performance parts
- We didn't know there are also other CF parts hidden under the hood (CF brace in engine bay, or were there spy pictures of it?) and under the car (CF drive shaft)
- We didn't know how exactly the M3 would look like until December 2013
- The Concept car had black kidney grill surrounds, and black side gills. Production cars come with chromed ones
- The Concept car's pictures had similar large wheel gaps that we have in production cars today
- Could we have told, from the undercarriage pictures, that the rear suspension was bolted directly onto the chassis?
What did I miss or mix up? |
Aurum Dust is actually a different color entirely than Austin Yellow. |
Yeh I actually prefer the concept yellow to the production yellow. Saw the M3/4 being built at Welt in June and I don't really like this color much. However I was in love with the concept photos.
