I've been see a lot of Steel Grey bimmers lately...I'm guessing it's gaining on the other colors in popularity...

What rock have you been under? Steel grey rules.

Here's a link to pics of my former STEEL GREY E46- http://www.geocities.com/td304/BMW/

Steel grey rules.
See, we agree every now and then... :thumb:
I'm not saying it's not a great color, That's the color I'm planning to order my //M in. I was just commenting that I'm seeing a lot of them and that they must be gaining on the other "popular" colors.

May I suggest SG/IR? ;)

Why didn't you get your M with Imola inside? I've seen a couple with that combo and they looked incredible!

If I was interested in an M3, I'd spring for the xtra 2K for a special color. It's only money when you get up at the level of a car.
Whats the difference?

Whats the difference between Tanin and Imola?

I have the Steel Grey w/Tanin lnterior. Some people almost puke at the sight of it, then change their opinion a week later. I guess its something most people have to aquire a taste for.

It's a bit brighter than Tanin.

Because I didn't spec my car out. I simply got the first E46 M3 @ MSRP available. I was SICK of waiting. CB/Gray is not a bad combo either. Plus, my 325i is SG/TR already...
I seen my first red M3 today, a lady was driving it, she was driving with both hands and going about 15mph :dunno:

That's the combo I've pretty much decided on. :thumb: :thumb:

With the 19" wheels!
I'm also looking at getting the AC Schnitzer Carbon Fiber trim!

That's BS... The ride is definitely harsher... Compared to my 325i SP, it's like night and day... :thumb:

Yep. It's smoother than the e36 ride though, but still tighter than the SP on the non-M cars.

Do you really think so? I drove a friend's 95 M3 (~10 miles only) and didn't get that impression. To be honest with you, I find mine tighter... Well, maybe that's due to age, etc. You're probably right.

Well, I definitely remember mine being pretty tight, but the e46 seemed a bit softer. But then again, I was only on a short ride myself. Guess I'll be able to tell more in about 2 weeks! :D :D
