Signal Green M3

Ged0 · 06-27-2015, 12:51 PM

So today I stopped by the local BMW dealership, Isringhausen Imports, for my weekly car wash (every Saturday you get one for free). While I was there I just so happened to spot a very bright green M3 getting off of a truck. To my surprise it was a Signal Green M3 with black full Merino Leather with deviating green stitching. This car is absolutely gorgeous. Sorry for the pic quality. Used my phone and the car obviously hasn't been detailed up for showroom quality.

Is it sold?

04RC51 · 06-27-2015, 01:24 PM

Not my taste but it's surely fast!

Ged0 · 06-27-2015, 01:25 PM

Nope not sold. They had one a while back that sold as soon as it landed. Just another for the showroom I'm assuming.

Happen to know how much sticker was?

Ged0 · 06-27-2015, 01:31 PM

I have a pic of it.

Blindside_137 · 06-27-2015, 01:35 PM

Love it, sticker doesn't look too bad, some individual orders push 100k

elias · 06-27-2015, 03:35 PM

You can keep the green paint and save $5k!

aerostar · 06-27-2015, 04:21 PM

11,000 for paint and stitching.

Holy shit

MDIVISION · 06-27-2015, 04:23 PM

Strange

It gets better. At the time i ordered my yellow stitching, it was $2526. I asked if they can do the steering wheel as well and they said sure, that would be an additional $3200. Go figure

I've done a few matching OEM M-steering wheels in contrast color stitching. It's not so much the cost of materials but labor and craftsmanship to make it look perfect.

These changes cost BMW time and cause non-standard production. You can have almost anything you want done, but you will pay dearly for their time to do so.

Lol it's not the cost of the thread, it's the change in to standard production process that is time and money.

Not justifying the up charge, but it's certainly more than different thread.
