Finally joined the M4 Family!

Sid3waze · 10-31-2014, 12:28 PM

Hey Guys, I picked up my Sahkir Orange M4 2 days and to be honest I was on the fence if I would like it because I ordered it without test driving one.

First Impression- I absolutely love the color and IMO second to the mineral grey this is the best color. I took delivery @ night so the car looked on the reddish side. It was unfortunately raining so I couldn't get a good feel for the power but it picked up speed effortlessly 1/4-mid throttle. I was in denial that my e92 M3 needed more torque but after driving this car I feel somewhat cheated from the outgoing v8.

The interior also feels lightyears ahead when compared to the e92 IMO. Everything from the leather quality to the actual real carbon fiber pieces sets it apart dramatically from the e92. The layout of the dash looks up to date and fresh. No more complaining about how dated the bmw interiors look.

I only drove her about 20 miles and I'm away for work until sunday. I'm itching to get behind the wheel to really test her out. The only issue I have with the car is even in stock form it sites too damn high. Maybe because my e92 is a zcp i'm not used to such a big gap. That will be taken cared of soon anyone.

I will update the thread and add more pics over the weekend.

Why didn't you get the mineral grey?
I changed from MG to BSM. Tough to take care of but no regrets.
I still haven't seen SO in the flesh but looks good in pics.

SO is a great color and you have impeccable taste in automobiles. Hope you enjoy it as much as the rest of us are.

Thank you for your kind words!

dmk08 · 10-31-2014, 01:06 PM

MG and SO were my two finalists as well. I went MG but still question it. I mainly went MG because I wanted SO interior and SO/SO is too much for me.

Car looks great! Enjoy!

congrats =)

dkhm3 · 10-31-2014, 02:29 PM

congrats! I would have picked her up after I got back from a trip. It is too much torture to have it in your garage and not be driven!

M4TW · 10-31-2014, 02:47 PM

Orange you glad you picked orange today? That is one fast pumpkin. Enjoy!

Yes, mineral grey to me looks more menacing but I wanted something that would pop. I'm happy with SO, please post pics of your car. I'm sure MG on SO looks amazing!
