I kept my 2015 M3 and added a 2016 X6M silverstone exterior mugello red interior.
I have problems uploading my pics from my ipad onto the site.

Nice!
I'm thinking of an X5M Silverstone with Mugello interior.
If you can post some pictures, would like to see how the red combines with Silverstone ?

We are doing the same thing, but opposite order to you. We bought a 2015 X5 M, and are currently working with the BMW Individual Department to order a custom 2016 M4. We think this combination of vehicles will be a good bit of fun.

Do you track your M4 regularly? If not, you won't miss a thing other than lack of mod options and head turns (less mod is a good things, saves money / only car guys know that you're driving something special).

I came from an F80 M3. The X5M drives lighter than it is, whips around corners like no other SUV, and the torque plants you to your seat. Oh, lap time around the ring is 8m05s, same as an E92 M3. It's no slacker. Lastly, the exhaust once broken in sounds intoxicating.

My buddy has the F80 M3, and I test drove the X5M for about an hour. The M3 is nimble because of its lower weight, and is a joy to drive. The X5M is as fun to drive, and makes a lot more power. M3 is one of the bests cars I have drove. Ample power in all gears (6 speed), handles extremely well, sounds great in sports mode, and is a perfect DD.


Member JNoSol had an M3 as well:

The F85 is beautiful, attracts a lot of attention from those who knows cars, and handles very well. The power is so addicting and the exhaust note is 100% better than the M3/M4. The exhaust pops during WOT, between shifts. It gets louder and louder after break-in.

Thank you so much for the feedback fellas. I track my M4 zero days. In fact it is primarily a weekend car since my main form of transportation is mass transit. That's great to hear that no compromises were made. I plan to hopefully take the plunge and take advantage of end of the year deals next month! Keep you posted!

What size HREs? Please post as soon as possible! I think those wheels will look amazing! I've been debating the same P107s with brushed tinted dark finish in 22s.
