"El Primero" Mexico Blue Individual F80 M3

Sometimes you have to trust that gut feeling that inspires you to make changes or try something new. It lingers in your mind for days maybe even weeks slowly gaining enough momentum that it doesn't matter whether it makes sense or not. My interest in classic motorsports and Horology accelerated this thought process into what became a 8 month eternity. The intense passion that go into these disciplines are fueled by the innovative pursuit of attention to the details. The timeless look of a Porsche 911 RSR in Mexico blue or a high beat movement Zenith El Primero Chronomaster 410 are great examples of that. I am glad BMW allows us to create our ideas into a reality thru BMW Individual as I didn't imagine it would turn out so well. I want to thank everyone at BMW of Henderson for the help and Bimmerpost member Sin_City_Mike for making sure everything ran like clockwork throughout the process with BMW.

I understand some may not justify the cost involved for a different shade of blue. This build was a idea that evolved in my mind for close to a year to the point where I felt it needed to be made regardless the cost. In my eyes it's the perfect example of the extent BMW will go to cater to their clients. As I mentioned before Mexico Blue bleeds racing heritage since the 70's so it naturally compliments the developed lines of the M3 that stem from motorsports. The interior needed to enhance the cabin feel inside by providing a rich blend of sport and luxury. The extended opal white dash creates contrast while eliminating most of the plastics inside leaving only carbon fiber and alcantara.
I like to think of it as my personal BMW Art Car for the company's 100 Year Anniversary.

Congrats. This color is amazing.

JAGOOD · 01-05-2016, 07:45 AM

Car looks awesome, especially that interior. Can I ask what it cost to do an individual car like that?

vonmayr · 01-05-2016, 07:48 AM

Congrats! Another unique color. And very nice photography to boot.

robbys3m3 · 01-05-2016, 07:57 AM

Awesome!

jonze · 01-05-2016, 08:01 AM

Outstanding color. It really pops, especially next to Yas. Plus you scooped GOLFFRR??? Now he should pick yet another color to wow us. I consider this a win all around! Great shots, by the way.

BwoodBMW · 01-05-2016, 08:05 AM

Muy Bueno! I've said for a long time that Mexico Blue would likely be my color if I did individual. To me it is kind of the best shade of Yaz and LSB combined. I did just see the new Porsche in Miami Blue which now that Mexico has been done somebody needs to step up with Miami.

cotmfk · 01-05-2016, 08:07 AM

Well done! Very close to Yas... but so different at the same time. And, IMO, so much better as well!
