Thanks guys - the colour is pretty rare from what I gather, but it's exceptional in the flesh 8)
The polished alloys really makje the colour 'pop' out and the tinted windows give it an excellent look.

BTW - I *always* get good prices on my cars, why do you think I change so much? ;)

Paul - I joined BM3W a couple of weeks back and spent 2 or 3 nights reading up on some of the info - there's a wealth of experience and a couple of names I recognised ;) Are the CSL parts standard?

Seeing as it's a BMW - have you added the optional indicators?

Lovely car, the colour doesn't look that great in the pics and wouldn't be my choice but I have seen a couple in the flesh and the sparkle from it is something else.

Always liked the M3 and would seriously consider buying one, only thing I would be put off by is the thought of it being out of date pretty quickly with a new M3 being released soon.

Happy motoring :thumbsup
