Took delivery of a GT today

Coming from a f30 328xi, this thing is amazing! Love the extra room and the m-sport options are pretty nice additions. Sorry for the crappy iPhone photos.

It's wrapped with some cf 3M. Breaks up the rear section a bit.

Congrats!

I wonder how you got the ///M fender badge? I thought US models don't get that designation badge.

I wondered the same thing....this was originally ordered as a demo, so it was full of options(some I won't use like the paddle shifters).

Yeah but paddle shifters mean you got the Sport transmission

Some of the very early F30s also had the Sport/Modern badges, too. Which they were not supposed to have in the US.

I have the exaxt same color car with M badge also came that way- mine is 335 GT- - Love the car - already took it to the 1/4 strip near my house and stock it was amazing - with a tune next year it will be tough car to beat in the 12.5 bracket - oh and the paddle shifters are a lot of fun especially in sport plus

I wondered why the guy asked for the VIN when I ordered the carbon shift knob.

I'm thinking the BMS Stage 1 tune will be next for me. The N20 kit would give it just enough extra power to makeup for the weight. It's quite impressive stock though.

Yup. Shifters are totally different with Sport vs. standard tranny.
