Question Has anyone here ordered a M3/M4 in Speed Yellow (Individual?)

It's been quite a few years since I ordered my last m3 and thinking to get an individual color this time around with ED.

Debating colors:

Signal Green
Speed Yellow
Dakar Yellow


I know the easy "safe" color is mineral white but my entire fleet is practically white with the exception of my wife's car. Told myself I want some more color this time around. Do you guys think there is enough difference from Speed Yellow to Dakar vs the factory Austin Yellow?

Options will be simple just want LED headlights, rear windscreen. Keeping the carbon roof and 6-speed manual as purist car.

Dakar would be cool. I've not seen that on the F8x.

BTW - I'm assuming you mean rear power shade? That's a nice option.

There's a Dakar Yellow F80 listed on carsdotcom. Not sure if it's a legit listing though.

Why would it not be legit????

Big fan of Dakar in here.....and if you are going to order it, at least get one with M adaptive suspension. Who cares about LEDs

Why is M-adaptive suspension needed if I'm going to swap to coilovers anyways? My R8 had the mag suspension and it prevented me from lowering the car so don't want the same headache with the m3....

Because there are a lot of fake listings with photos taken from Google, etc.
