'23 M3 Manual No ///M Seatbelts

jeff_kakaley · 07-03-2023, 06:56 AM

I tried to do some research. Seems like some of the late build ‘22s had them but mine definitely does not and I’m pretty sure my car went into production in February of this year. As such, I want them badly haha. How hard would it be to install these after the fact? Is it even worth it to pursue?

They will become standard in MY '24 for base model G80s. I have a 2023 base and I don't have the M belts

We done messed up brother lol. Really wish ours came with them.

My base model 2022 M4 does not have them either. My car's build date was June 27, 2022, making it one of the last 2022 M4s built before the model year change on July 1. It has full leather and 6MT.

But, i did get the M anniversary badges and I won the tire lottery.

And, oh yes, I love the IOMG and the Tartufo full leather.

Well at least you won the tire lottery, whatever that means.

Probably referring to getting PS4Ss instead of something else like P Zeros.

06/2022 prod m4xC . I do have the M seatbelts. At one point they were putting them on the comps and not the base models. I also won the tire lottery. Perplexes me that others don’t know what that means.

9/22 build MY23 G80 6MT and I randomly got them.

You can put them in after. Safetyrestore does webbing swaps and has the M pattern. The labor to remove and reinstall is likely the most expensive part though.

You’re in Boston? Are you in the MassG8x group?

We all know what it means but think it’s silly - just like M belts and driving gloves (well, at least I do).

Especially after I had to wait 345 days (

), 20 days short on one year from the time I ordered it to the time I took delivery.

The car wants to go the long way around to wherever I'm going. That IOMG over Tartufo full leather is fantastic. And I'm glad it came with the Michelins.

Phew! You sure dodged a bullet! Those Pzero things came on my Aventador SVJ and I couldn't break 6:45 on the 'ring with them. Trash. I can't believe that incompetent company supplies tires to Formula 1. They won't ever touch a rim on my M3.

Sounds like you're being sarcastic but PS4S are objectively better tires than PZeros.

I prefer Michelins myself but the gap between Michelin, Conti, Pirelli is so small these days the true delta is negligible.

When I got each of my GT4s I got the Dunlops but they are in fact the better option vs Michelin.
