Individual Grigio Telesto ZCP M3

Shmelgy · 06-30-2016, 05:23 PM

After my lease ended on my E92 M3, I knew I wanted to get into the new M3, but I stumbled on a 335is on swapalease that was too cheap to pass up. Fast forward two years and I finally got the car I've been waiting for!

Shout out to David Aviles at Steve Thomas BMW as well as Jimmy (Bach and Golffrr

) for a smooth and easy order and pickup. Even though BMW didn't approve my initial color request, David made sure to get my backup color locked in.

I installed the 12/15mm spacers I had from the 335is on day one, along with my MRG titanium stud conversion kit, tints, and coding done by Alex@Alpine.

IND painted reflectors, diffuser, front lip, and spoiler are on the way.
KW ClubSports and M Performance Electronic steering wheel (thanks to Golan@AutoTalent) are going on next week and I will update this thread with pictures along the way.

The car is unbelievable! Enjoy the crappy iPhone pics until a proper shoot.

Love the color. Well done

dr.mba · 06-30-2016, 06:09 PM

congrats, lovely color. I was denied that color by BMW Canada and settled for Fashion grey instead (well,,, not really denied but they made it hard for me given the premium of 8K CAD and I could not justify it)
