Am I greedy?

Hi! My first post.

I've just ordered 2 x 330d M Sport Saloons in Estoril Blue 2 with Coral Red Leather. One for my ex and one for myself.

£5k+ worth of Packages and Optional extras.

We had to have the superb Red Leather (Black: we felt was boring/depressing, Cream: too easily stained and not very M Sport) and the only colour we both liked was the Estoril Blue.

Got a great deal which was impossible to refuse.

Delivery in 6-8 weeks.

Not greedy, but maybe a bit daft...

Why would you buy your ex a new car...!

In any case, nice choices.

I said ordered, not bought.

You assumed too much!

I agree: VERY, VERY NICE CHOICES.

In that case, by your own logic you are not being greedy at all...

Strange post title...!

Do you think you'll drive around together in your superman themed cars?

Tell you what, Estoril Blue with Red Leather are M Sport colours. I've seen this combination and it is stunning and very far removed from White Goods.

I think we will drive around together (and apart) in our stylish F30s, otherwise what would be the point of buying them?

No divorce settlement as it would make very little difference to our individual wealth. She's richer than me anyway so it should have been the other way around.

We decided separately on the same colour combination as we felt all others were pants!

Pants as in Superman...in which case, that be your car

Remember everybody has personal preference
I found the interior choice quite limited tbh!

Yep! With an M Sport bulge.

Only three interior leathers and a very limited range of colours.

It's a stand out colour and will probably get stolen within a few months. I'll use the GAP and then buy a Grey one. Will still have Red Leather inside, though. And if that gets nicked, then I'll go all Black.
