    I like it ... but never in that colour. Shockingly bad imho. I actually saw a Nissan Tilda in that colour or very similar today and it looked as bad.

    This is the first e92 with this colour I've seen. It gives me a headache just looking at it. It certainly is "individual"

    Colour is not great.

    Didn't realise how bling the new M3 is either.

    There's a lot worse. That's not actually all that bad - I wouldn't say no.

    Black is the only colour a Bmw should ever be.

    Ok prob gonna get shot for this but I do like it (lots).:D

    I figure if you have an M3 you want to stand out from the crowd ;)

    Not saying I would buy it in that colour but I think its one of those cars that can handle the colour. AH an M3 hmmmm..... just listen to that engine purr

    I love that colour, in fact if I had an M3, it'd be that colour.

    Oh crap, I've fallen in love with it... There's an older M3 I often see doing the N7 Dublin to Naas run, same colour. Really looks good after the initial shock wears off :P

    If I had an M3, I'd want it to be as similar looking as a low end 3-series as (technically) possible

    I see an older E46 M3 with that colour a few times around Lucan.

    I wouldn't say no..... :P

    €114,150 :eek:
    I never actually realised that they were that price.
    As for the colour it wouldnt be to my taste, but a lovely car none the less. Although if I ever become Taoisach I think I'll spend my first 4 months salary on a blue one!

    I think I am right in saying VRT on one is going up to 36% after July.

    A q-car is a lot more attractive than a riced up 3series with acres of bling.

    I think the old M3 looks great in that colour, though I could see why it's not to some peoples' taste.

    because if it didn't and you didn't have it garaged 24 hrs a day..

    it'd be stolen.

    Because I'd like other people to think my car is just a base version. A wolf in sheep's clothing is what I like. Bling's not for me...

    Nah, I wouldn't be overly worried about that. It's a car we're talking about, not my wife or one of my children. Anyways, most cars are stolen these days either to order (thief breaks into your house and get the key of your new(ish) car) or to joyride (thief hotwires old car with no immobiliser)

    Quite like the understated idea all right i.e Q~car
    Black M3 with 316 badge and a single exhust (obviously not really posible/feasable) and BMW wheel trims, furry dice, now you have a wolf in sheeps clothing
    (ok wheel trims may be hard to live with all right):cool:

    wouldnt buy one in that colour but it was a launch colour for the e46, phoenix yellow.

    worked better on the older car tho :)

    new m3 really growing on me, wish it would fast forward 5 years so that i could afford one :(
