Velocity......as in; how great of a "Velocity" can the dollars fly out of your pocket into BMWs hands in an attempt to stretch the F80/82 gen as long as possible.

But seriously, black leather already comes with white stitching. How noticeable can this special grey stitching be?
That was a good one

Bmw offers the best discounts, compared to other manufacturers like Audi, Mercedes, Ford etc, for their military sales department. Lowered msrp, options are a few hundred cheaper, and a flat 10% off the complete build price. It is the easiest no hassle purchase I’ve ever dealt with. I purchased an 18 w/ metallic paint, zcp, and leather for a substantial amount less than ED or dealer. However, this velocity edition sounds stupid. If you think this is garbage, look at the Petty edition POS mustangs and F150s. That old bag was out here in Germany trying to sell his stuff and it’s ignorantly over priced.

Awesome car! - these limited editions should hold their value and sell well. Look at the 30 Jahre. Love it! They will only appreciate as time goes on. With only 20 of these made they should sell quick imo

Ummmmm. No. I don't think so. This is so overpriced that it'll go down in price substantially.

30 jahre is a different story

For 15k, you can take your current F80 ZCP or not and get:

1) Custom lightweight wheels and tires 5-7k
2) Suspension upgrades 3-5k (optional)
3) Carbon Fiber parts 3-5k
4) BootMod3

And you are done

At least it looks better than that the Tommy Hilfiger Edition M3 that came out a few months ago....I'd have to see better pictures of the car, but from what I can see, it kind of sucks. Color looks like crap, and the text on the seats looks like it was typed by Yoda from a 1980's computer.

With that being said, if any of the military members over there decide to buy this car and get that discount, it isn't a bad deal for 80.2k. If you option out a regular M3 with everything this car has minus anything under the Velocity Package, you end up getting around ~80k anyways.

Why sell a car painted in a color honoring the Navy in a location predominately populated by US Army service members (Grafenwohr, Vilseck, Hohenfels)?

I’m aware. Hence your usage of the “......” which typically indicates a quip/sarcastic remark on the internetz.
