I love mineral white. Having now seen it in the metal, it is one of my favourite car colours ever!
Looks particularly good on an M3!

+1- my mate came home in one last weekend - looked stunning and when parked next to my AW one, made mine look very bland - the metallic finish of the white is superb, almost looks like a metallic foil finish? Love it and wish it was available when I spec'd and bought my car!!

Hey all,
Long time lurker. Was going to create a seperate thread for the car above with more photos but this Sunday morning the weather was disappointingly wet. Still gave me the chance to fit the M3 Edition black gills. Here's a quick snippet on the spec and a few photos...
Didn't think I'd get a white car but after test driving this for a few hours , it completely changed my mind. Definately happy with the Mineral White. Possible further mods to follow.

The car looks awesome - one mod I would defo do, following the black theme, would be to change the side 'gills' to black ones. Not a fan of chrome with white anyway, but now you have lost the chrome grilles, these should follow suit.
I have gloss black ones fitted to mine, along with the bonnet vents and they really look good and match the gloss black surrounds of the BMW performance grilles and the gloss black finish of the shadowline. |

As far as I know a sealant is a synthetic substitute for wax. Lots of people prefer it on White/Silver as it offers a more clinical finish. Mostly the new ones offer greater durability as well.

That's a lovely M3!
I currently need to find a website called "grubbyworld" as my car is currently staying clean for no longer than 0.00000001 seconds after each wash... |

You will be watching every mile count up to that 1200!!
Believe me, the car is a diferent animal after the first service and you can drive it properly - it just starts to wake up at 6,000rpm and that 8400 redline is sublime!! If you decide to sell your edition exhaust tips let me know, I might be interested Look forward to more pics!!! |

You've already sold your car and the exhaust tips before breaching your 1200 mile marker .
