I switched my order from silverstone to mineral white now, I fight between those two colors all the time and finally I believe white would be the better option for me since I will be doing a lot of carbon fiber exterior things, in my opinion and looking through this thread the white compliments the carbon fiber well!!

I'm debating whether to do the CF front splitters on MW (no CF lip tho). Am I correct the original needs to be cut off, or are they different pieces to begin with and can be easily removed?

No need for cutting. They're attached by screws and 3m tape.

Thanks MW

Thanks to all of those positing pictures of Mineral White M3's!

After researching, and researching, and research...... all the colors, specs, etc., Mineral White really stood out.
Alpine white was more common on dealer lots (in M4's ) and I couldn't find mineral white in an M, only other BMW series. The combination of less common M3 and Mineral White really took a conservative color (white) and a family 4 door to make a more unique car bad ass performance sleeper.

I wanted something under the radar so white or grays were on the table. We have 3 kids (13, 16, & 18) so 4 doors is important. After seeing these pics, and comparing to all the other colors, I was sold. Even though Mineral White is harder to paint and match side reflectors and such, I think it will really be worth it.

Ordered a long time ago and it's finally either waiting for a ship or just on a ship to the West Coast. The waiting really is difficult. My Alpine White 540i was bought used a couple years old, my Alpine White 328i was new trucked from a dealers lot. Now that I'm getting back into BMW, never saw this coming. Man is it tough!

I will post pics as soon as my M3 comes in. Just trying to figure out where to take those pics. This is the only picture i have of my car.

You are to be commended for being patient with your order! I too, had several build slots from a couple of dealers just to get the custom build that I wanted (YMB/SO) but ended up getting an AW off the lot instead. Love the MW though, especially since it's not as common as an AW. Looks very classy! I'm sure your wait will be well worth it soon.

Currently have a MW ZCP on order. Have had two AW BMWs prior, and felt I needed a change. Hope I made the right decision!

I'm waiting for my MW M3.

I really really love your rims, they don't look stock.

What are they?

you can get mw reflectors from ind. you have to email them. since the color can't be a 100% match they don't have them as an option on their site. I emailed them and got my front and rear mw reflectors. don't have the car yet so haven't been able to see how close it matches. 2 more weeks of waiting

I have the MW IND reflectors. Far from a perfect match, but better than Apline White

As fun as it is to look at all these cars, its also a bit of self-induced torture. It makes the wait seem a bit longer, but you know what they say.

Thanks for sharing the pics everyone. I am looking forward to the arrival of mine.
