340i Delivery Pics

Big Nodge · 05-10-2016, 09:41 PM

Took delivery on Friday, loving this car so far. Break-in is going so slow! I'll post more thoughts as I get more miles in, here are some delivery day pics.

Indeed! One of my two favorite combo's!

JamRWS6 · 05-11-2016, 09:24 AM

Nice car, enjoy!

CruzM3 · 05-11-2016, 09:25 AM

Looks good man. Question, does the 340i come with the rear diffuser like yours?

donkey · 05-11-2016, 09:42 AM

That last picture sold me on coral red for my next car. Looks amazing, and the 6MT seals the deal!

RodDT · 05-11-2016, 09:59 AM

Awesome car! Great taste!

daren · 05-11-2016, 10:00 AM

Looks sweet, congrats!

Big Nodge · 05-11-2016, 11:13 AM

Thanks everyone.

I should have mentioned, the car is wearing a fair amount of M Performance gear. So a standard M-Sport won't look exactly like this.

Car has M Performance:
Front lip
Rocker panel blades
Rear diffuser
Spoiler
Carbon fiber interior trim
Pedals
Black kidneys

I worked with the port to get the parts painted the way I wanted. This is how they usually do the rear diffuser, but I had to ask them to just paint the "nostrils" on the lip.
