OMG!! That is sweeeeeet!! :yikes:

That birch trim rocks! Would Much rather have that then the dark wood on most the cars. Would look Awesome in a black interior car.

Btw, the 19's are already here. You can order today!!

Edit: Dam Atyclb. Beat me by two seconds!!

Thanks for the pic, Vince. Gorgeous color ! :thumb:

As atcylb said, it's Chiaretto Red and the interior is cremeweiss (cream white). It's the full-leather option. Price : about $3500 (in Germany)

BTW, I've decided, Vince. I'm going to do it !

I think if I could get that color combo I'd order an E46 M tomorrow.

Seriously? That seems like a strange reason to motivate your purchase.

BTW, isn't there a drawer under the light switch in the US spec cars ? (just curious)

Not on my 325Ci... I'm guessing the drawer doesn't meet US safety specs that require padded lower dashes.

Hyperbole. I do like that color combination, though.

Looks like another compartment, what is it?

US dashboards have a lot of extra padding for knee impacts. In other markets the dashes are thinner and have compartments...

I noticed the drawer was mentioned in the Bentley but as others have said, its likely not there for US safety specs.

There is a Chiaretto Red M5 stickered for $15k over at the local dealer. I thought it was a very, um, 'interesting' color on a 5er.

I could do without that birds-eye birch, though.

Is the //M3 badge on the front bumper (next to the plate) standard in Europe?

No. Never seen it before. I've checked the pics I have, nothing there.

Why do I see a new trend of people retrofitting little compartments under their dash on the horizon? :lmao:
