I saw it for the 1st time on a friends E90 M3 in 2010 and fell in love with the colour.Once it became a normal Metallic colour in Canada I could not order anything else.I am really glad I waited the extra 2 months to get it and only $895 for it.

You mean the "professional driving instructor" (as described on camera)?

The bemused look on your face as you answer the question "why do people do this?" to the queasy looking reporter was pretty great......

Looked like a few F8X out at the event....

Yeah there was a good F8x showing. A couple of E46s but E9x were missing from the family.

Gotta watch out for those angry ZR1s...

The razz that I have suffered in texts,e mails and phone calls has been somewhat amusing!

The day was Driveteq's who are a great bunch and good friends whom I have known for quite a while.
