WOW.. Congrats. That color looks sharp. I can't tell, but what interior (dash/trim) did you get?

Thanks

The car looks awesome! Can you do 1 favor? Can you take a pick of the trunk open? I want to see if you have the trunk close button. Thanks.
I do not and most of the ones coming soon won't either. If you have a power trunk it will be specified on the window sticker. If it's not there you don't have it due to the chip/module shortage. My car also missed out on power lumbar for the passenger only.

Looks like Aluminum Rhombicle. Way better than the other aluminum interior trim IMO. Decided to go with this same interior spec, felt like the aluminum is more "sporty" feeling than my 2nd choice of the open pore ash grain, glad I went with this spec.

Damn we have the exact thought process when it comes to ordering cars 😂 the open pore was my second choice too but I though about the maintenance part and decided not to. I was under the impression this was the same aluminum mesh from the 22 configurator makes sense why I like it so much better.

Yeah idk to me I love the facelift in about every way possible besides the removal of the shifter and some physical buttons but otherwise I'm in love. Idk what it is about the models that are shown on the website but they just don't do the facelift justice at all.

What car did you have before this? I am really hoping we can remove the new shifter and put an old style one in.

Agreed, I disliked the Aluminum Tetragon on the previous 3 series and have the previous version of it in my 2 series. My 2nd thought was it is the best trim choice if I decide to wrap the trim with some sort of Carbon Fiber vinyl in the future.

I'm coming from a Tesla Model 3. From the looks of the new shifter I wouldn't imagine it being possible to simply remove and attach the old one. I feel it would probably a harder job than it's worth. I don't really mind it too much I just kinda feel funny flicking the thing around the swap to reverse or drive 😂.

Yeah I would've liked to have gotten a carbon fiber trim like I have seen come factory on some m340is but it just wasn't an option in the configurator. Idk how people do special orders like that with the m performance parts and stuff.

Yeah it is odd that it isn't a standard option but I guess they have to save some stuff for the M3. Usually the dealers have a "VIA" option in their system where they can add the port installed accessories like M Performance carbon fiber trim but last I checked it costs around $1500. They also are able to add other parts such as the M Performance exhaust or all weather mats, nothing that can't be installed after taking delivery but is definitely ideal for lease customers who want that stuff but don't want to pay the whole cost for a car they won't keep because it becomes part of the MSRP.

Oh I always wondered how people got the m performance exhaust as a "port option". I feel like I just kinda got a shitty sa when buying my car because I specifically stated to him that I had seen other be able to add port options but he said he didn't see it as an option so idk. No big deal though I love this car still can't believe I got it.
