That is a stunning color combo. Member king1828 has that color combo in his M5 and it is sweet.

Joe's interior is even nicer IMO, bc the M5 red is deeper and more brownish than the 3er's...
The red dominates my rearview mirror. You do not appreciate how much faster the M5 is than the 550 until you both open it up at the same time.

I am very used to see the interior of king1828's M5 because it is usually right behind my car's tailpipe coming up fast. The red dominates my rearview mirror. You do not appreciate how much faster the M5 is than the 550 until you both open it up at the same time.

Since I've firmly decided to sell my car (oh, about 5-6 mods ago ), I haven't really been able to decide between 535, 550, 335 coupe and e92 M3. While all of the above would make your humble narrator EXTREMELY happy, I've decided to go with the lightest and most economically moddable of the four - the 335 coupe. Now, I'm trying to figure out whether the coupe is really better in RWD or should I just opt for Xi and not worry about winters - it does snow in NY on occasion, global warming or not. Northeasterners driving RWD cars, what would you recommend?

So obviously, I'm like the only person on here who cares about the limited slip rear differential... Subaru people would laugh at all of you all! Shame!
Y'all just got those Bimmer to show off - not drive
