The quality of the full Merino and its stitching is amazing. |

Thanks for the nice feedback. I've been spending time reading the manual and watching YouTube videos, trying to get up to speed on all the new technology this beast has.
One note, the paint was a typo, it's actually Aventurin III Red Metallic. Last edited by M1903a3; 04-20-2022 at 02:02 AM.. |

The merino leather is fantastic and the Caramel is also my choice. First time when will clean and protect the leather you realize the extreme amount of leather that has been put into the interior.
Very cool with the manufaktur sign. Is that because of the leather or the wood trim or any other manufaktur extras you have? Did you have to pay extra for the logo? |

You have to pay extra for the Logo. Its also possible to choose your own Logo. I have an individual price sheet from 2021 for germany. Can send it via mail.

I have the same pricelist which was very helpful when I specced my individual manufaktur options for my car. But since the Merino leather is a normal extra in Europe I wasn't aware that you could order a manufaktur sign on the dashboard if the car doesn't have any manufaktur options. But since the Merino leather is a manufaktur option in the states it makes sense.

The paint and wood were actually in both the Individual configurator website and the "Build it" on the BMWUSA website. But on the BMWUSA site there is an asterixis that says they are Individual options with a four to six week delay. The paint code tag under the hood says it's an Individual Manufaktur code. My original order in Sept 2021 was rejected by BMWUSA as not available in the US, but I wrote to the MSport people in Germany and got a message from the BMWUSA MSport asking me to resubmit the order. |

Excellent build
Great choices. I have an IOMG M3 and have been considering an M550 in Aventurin as a possible next choice in 2024. I love the rich wood trim and was considering coffee leather, but your choice is fantastic. Gives me some food for thought for sure.
