yeahh!!

MattTheCarNut · 01-15-2018, 03:37 PM

It certainly looks the part, doesn't it! But, I'm super confused about the price...

Lime Rock Grey Metallic

JMAN1111 · 01-15-2018, 03:43 PM

Lime rock

100k for m3

Roch M4 · 01-15-2018, 03:46 PM

The exterior color is nice, but I don't like the interior with the Alcantara (is more espensive that leather and it's 100% a synthetic fabric...)...but the overall features of the car can be obtained with some existing upgrades and for far less expensive

BLACK OPS · 01-15-2018, 03:48 PM

This is hard to pass up. Fortunately with only 500 US units it'll pass me up

DS_BMW · 01-15-2018, 03:51 PM

Nice but not special enough for 100k.

My local dealer always has M3/M4 models with Individual paints and interiors, along with exhausts, etc., knocking on the door of $100k. And I'm in Cincinnati, not Miami or LA, so if they are selling $100k M3/M4's here, I don't see any problem with an actual limited edition performance model selling for the same money.

svic628 · 01-15-2018, 04:07 PM

BMW pricing is crazy these days. I remember when i was 16 a base 05 m3 was 49k. Now an m3/m4 with a couple packages is 75-80k. Then you take that that add every package and M performance accesory add some lightweight wheels, alcantara dash trim and two tone seat and its 100k?

2000Z3M · 01-15-2018, 04:16 PM

and yet no pricing on the m4 cs yet :/

JMAN1111 · 01-15-2018, 04:18 PM

I'll take an m5 in lime rock folks

mrmoua2u · 01-15-2018, 04:18 PM

Alot of money for minor horsepowers over the CP. Wish it was more.

Kief · 01-15-2018, 04:22 PM

Where can I find this F80 CS trunk spoiler? I thought I recalled seeing an aftermarket version?

Definitely will be over $100,000 but would be nice to know...
My guess: $105,000.

Downeaster1 · 01-15-2018, 04:46 PM

Why do they refuse to build the limited cars without the good transmission?

DML · 01-15-2018, 04:58 PM

A lot of dough for a really sweet rear spoiler, minus an armrest.

PARTS@STBMW · 01-15-2018, 05:52 PM

I love the color way on the seats!

Xtabi · 01-15-2018, 05:53 PM
