Well this explains why my car came with 19" given I paid big $$ for the M performance package , I was starting to think that the dealer sold the 20" to someone else and put 19" on my car, I bought my 2015 from dealer stock in June so I had to take the car the way it was configured and landed up with Carbon Black which truthfully I am not crazy about as everything shows up on this colour. Was also a drastic change from my 2012 which was White.

I Have to admit I am very taken by your car and have just contacted my dealer to see if they can change my order to Med Blue , I really wanted the Tanzanite Blue which is a BMW Individual Colour , you can see it on BMW's U.S. site as it is a 2016 colour and BMW Canada has not yet updated their Canadian site to 2016 models ( to many 2015 still left in stock for them to move) , anyways my dealer told me special orders will take much longer to fill, so I will see if they can make the change to Med Blue . One thing I just learned is you cannot base colour decisions on looking at BMW's website, the colours are very different when you see them in person or on a good quality picture.

I never owned an M Z3 .

The car looks really good but the be honest I prefer Tanzanite over Med Blue.

If I had to order one, it would have been a Tanzanite one but got a great deal on a 2015 plus lease rate are lot less so for the same car, I went with the 2015.

I work downtown and I am from the south shore so if you ever want to see the car live... we will try to meet somewhere.

Cheers

Love the interior and the wheels. Have you considered a slight drop and some spacers?
