Default New M3

Bright Red. Manufacturer's plates. Must have been out for a review. Had tape over the badges and on other places to disguise it. Pretty obvious what it was though. Was the convertible tin top. Nice looking for sure, smaller than the last generation. It looked smaller? than my dad's 335, but it may have been an illusion. Tried to get the driver to wave but he would have none of it.

I saw 2 last weekend at the Norwell BMW dealership: black sedan and blue coupe. The blue is a very interesting color indeed. In bright sunlight it appears close to the electron blue in the old Civic. On a misty day it appears violet (what I saw). At night it is a flat blue close to that of the monte carlo blue.

They are selling at sticker (no adjusted premium) and open for test drive. Maybe we can make another RGCC outing?

jt, whatever works for you. Let me know and I'll set it up. I can even introduce you to hot pot (shabu) afterward. I know a really good place.

Yani, sorry RGCC member only. J/K, of course you can come! Keep checking this thread for final scheduling.
