What an awesome color. I personally wouldn’t buy an M3 on it though...

Yo! I saw this parked in that exact spot a few days ago but didnt have my camera with me!! Was this today?

Nope. Taken Wednesday last week. You can spot it puttering around the area; the owner works nearby.

It looks great in this photo - I don’t think I’ve seen this colour in person, yet.

Also, are those OEM BMW wheels? They look pretty wacky - I don’t hate them, but I don’t love them, either.

Wow, I used to live literally around the corner from that spot. That’s a nicer car than I can ever recall seeing there...

Yes, they’re the M3 competition package wheels. Style 666, as it happens.

W 120th St., correct?

The color is a BMW Individual shade, and costs a princely $5,000. The wheels... well, RPM esq. has gotten that covered.

In Lebanon I saw similar yellow F30 3 series, like 3 of them. Such a great color.

Lived on 121st and Amsterdam, yup.

I live right around there, randomly nice cars sometimes park up here.

Reminds me of the yellow used on the FoSTs.

I would have thought competition wheels would be more function/performance than form. A more Teutonic approach would be to have wheels that are lighter by a few hundred grams and charge a price far weightier than that saved by the wheels.

Holy shit, that paint costs more than what my car is worth.

If I had M3 money, I’d definitely get a colour that I would love - one I don’t see much nowadays is green. You get some hilariously bright hues on supercars, but I was thinking something like this would be right up my alley:

They put the same ones on the GTS or whatever it’s called, so they must be pretty performance oriented.

This is the only time the new plates look OK.

Ah, nice.

Even if I were in the market for a M3, I still would be hesitant to pay $5,000 for that paint...

Signal Green huh

Come at me bro

I'd have to agree with that.

You're right... I just noticed the resemblance!

Any particular spots in the area that normally have cool cars ?

Jonathan Harper > pjhusa 07/26/2016 at 23:17

Better off just going downtown somewhere it's not consistent at all. Closer to Columbia is usually where there's nicer stuff but it's hit or miss.

you’ll never figure out this bmw color

TylerJ > pjhusa 07/26/2016 at 23:26

Both are yellows that I love on cars, but would never have on my own personal car.

Ah. Reason being that I will be at Columbia for the next two weeks.

Those wheels are just the best! And that color looks pretty dang good, surprisingly.

I would be so torn between this color or technoviolet.

I especially love Mercedes’s Northern Lights Violet!

I need a purple car.
