excellent.

Thank you everyone! Took me over 2 weeks to decide but so glad I pulled the trigger!

Achieved £18200 discount, and an over allowance of £3770 on my M3 to settle the equity it had, couldn’t say no really!

Screen shot this from the video they sent me!

Jesus...is that deal aggressive, but realistic for the UK, or once in a lifetime? Basically 22k...

Sick man, CCB's look pimp with that color.

[DML]

Definitely worth the upgrade, this I would keep for quite sometime.

Nice. I just saw one at my dealer in San Marino Blue with CCB's. Looks good.

So you did go mental, well done.

Looks lovely.

Basically they aren't shifting...

How is it so many so lightly used and quickly turned back in? Were they dealer demo cars or actually owned by normal folk that bailed out after 1 month of ownership?

Btw - congrats - best color with the CCBs - looks superb.

Completely untrue. I was going through cars every 10 months to a year / year and half at best at one point. It's an addiction. And all different brands/makes too. They were all the "right" car. Even to the point of regretting selling some of the them... but hey, that's the sickness.

It's an amazing waste of tax money however and I have since knocked it off. I've been in my Jeep now for over 3 years (bought new) and my M3 for almost a year (purchased one year old with low miles). This is a record for me and I have no plans to get rid of either any time soon.

I don't think I'll ever purchase another expensive car brand new. It's silly to pay all that depreciation when you can let someone else do it. I've learned that much. Having to have a "brand new" car is just an ego thing. From a money standpoint, it simply doesn't make sense to throw that money away like that. Believe me, I know.

You are absolutely right! Cars are the only thing I feel like changing regularly, when I say regularly I mean usually at the 2 year point..

I keep my phones till they die, same with TV’s etc, don’t move house, ever, my other hobby is mountain biking and I have zero intentions of upgrading my bike to the latest and greatest, so not sure why I feel like I get the urge for a new car so often.

Issue now is, M4CS is pretty much the cream of the crop for me, in terms of BMW’s, the larger cars don’t interest me at all such as M5, new 8 series, and the G series M3/4 will likely go through the same product cycles, so in theory I can keep this one until I see what the next gen CS is like.

So clean! I probably would have gone a different route, but that is gorgeous! Congratulations!

Hell of a Deal Colin! Car looks amazing. Have fun

Congrats! I'm sort of in the same space- just turned in my leased 2016 M4, and not sure what's next. I don't like how cars keep getting larger and larger, which seems to be turning me off to more models than I would like.

When I was turning my M4 in, I had no real idea of what was next- didn't even really know about the CS- but they had an M4 and M3 in the showroom in the SMB- on gloss, one frozen. Gotta say- that's when I understood how impulse buys happen with cars!

I'd want an M3 this time as the coupe makes it hard to load friends, dogs, etc.

Keep sharing perspectives on how you like the CS comparatively- it's definitely helpful!

Yep! They sit there all gleaming in the showroom and make you want one!
Will definately keep the updates coming and probably do a thread when I collect it this weekend! Exciting times!!

My car is fully loaded with CCB's. I made it a M3CS before it even existed. I used the BMW coilovers at GTS street height and run the CS EDC tune. I run GTS tunes (and others) for everything else. Huge difference. I'm happy and my car will destroy a CS.
