A great reason to celebrate by watching this...

Welcome to the M-Cloth and 6pd gang.

Enjoy in good health......

positiveions · 11-16-2020, 04:57 PM

Congrats and great effort.

mckman · 11-16-2020, 05:08 PM

Great story. It was worth the read.

Glad everything worked out for you. Enjoy the 6MT.

I like the way you photoshopped the pedestal from under that T-Bird. My dad was an RCAF pilot who flew Voodoos out of Comox and Starfighters out of Germany. He probably flew that bird in his youth.
Great pics BTW.

Located in Princeton, BC.

Amazing story, OP! Really glad it all worked out in the end. Have fun with your new ride!

shameson · 11-16-2020, 06:45 PM

rumpydoppelganger Easily one of my favorite M4 builds, that color is fantastic! We chatted a little about it on your original post on the Oppositelock page

Congrats again on the car and getting front page. Enjoy!

So this is a ZCP car with individual paint, cloth seats, and non comp wheels? What is this unicorn?

M3_Legend · 11-16-2020, 07:18 PM

Congrats crazy story !! Glad you got the chance to buy the car you wanted..

Congrats on getting your speed yellow and cloth M4. It's a special car. Enjoy every mile

PARTS@STBMW · 11-16-2020, 07:22 PM

Congratulations! Great spec!

the only colour why I want m4... congrats!

coldsoup · 11-16-2020, 08:10 PM

Wow. A fairy tale story for car guys.
Beautiful ride. 6mt.
Congratulations!

CP911 · 11-16-2020, 09:16 PM

Awesome!! You have truly excellent taste. A real driver's build without question. The Carbonstructure cloth is such an underrated option that most would turn their nose down at, but that's because those same people just want to be looked at and feel cool in a BMW instead of buying one for the thrill and love of driving. SY is one of my favorite classic Porsche colors too...fell in love with it back in the 996 days. Kudos to you, my friend, and congratulations on an incredible build and journey!

vampire81 · 11-16-2020, 10:12 PM

congratulations
speed yellow is one of the best yellows out there

IB M · 11-16-2020, 10:20 PM

Great story and ending.
Refreshing to see someone order such a clean and mean spec. Now that you found it don't ever sell it.
