Imola Red M Roadster, its arrived :D

[mazzawi]

Everything about it is just perfect.
The Imola Red is just amazing. ( thanks StarScream )
The engines sound's great.
every KM in this car is a thrill.
There is a world of difference between the Z4 and the M. only M cars for me from now on

its torture to follow the break in rules, but i want the car to be broken in perfectly.
I've already forgotten all about my old Z4. before i was worried that I would miss my old car.

[Brucewonder]

shes beautiful...congrats on the new car

[70RTY]

very nice!! Love the Porsche too!

[Starscream]

awwwwwwwww yeahhhhhhhhhhh!!!!


I remember that first day too

Congrats!,
I'll have to re-vamp the offical Imola Red Roadster thread with some new pics,
Good to have another Imola on the board!

So, I imagine you've done a couple of inadvertent burn-outs? It took me a bit to adjust the amount of throttle needed for the M versus my old 2.5i.

[mazzawi]

I've been driving like an old lady, there is still another 1800Km until the break in is over.
I got all the need for speed out of my system before returning the old car. ( the black 2.5i in the pictures )
The engine's sound is just Amazing. I've only gotten it up to 4,000 RPM
if anyone is considering upgrading to the M, go get one its more than worth it.

[DannyZ]

gotta' love the factory orange peel paint...that car looks sweet.

[BMWJZ4]

niceeee congrats!..i love imola red

[Rick Hunter]

Hey... just chiming in to say...

IMOLA RED FTW!!!!

Congrats mate.

[Starscream]

What options/interior did you get?
There wasn't an inside shot

[mazzawi]

more

[mazzawi]

it has all the options except for Extended Leather cause I didn't know what it was until i saw another car that had it. I called them to add it later then the factory said it was too late. but its okay I'm too happy to care.

The dealer lost the blue tooth codes, They were saying they can find out if they take some part off, I told them yeah right. go figure it out another way.

It's not a huge deal. The ULF is behind the carpet in the trunk, and the bluetooth pass key is printed on a sticker there. It is the quickest, simplest way to get the info.

[mazzawi]

thanks I'll go look there

[GQTony81]

congrats on the car man she looks great! theres nothing better than the feeling you get the day you take home a new car.

DannyZ: I agree the the standard orange peel paint is consistent.
I see it on all BMW's I have looked at lately..including mine.
Great color!!!

Now here is one car where you want the red 3rd brake light!
If I could get clear on the coupe I'd love it!

[dfine]

man, I so wish I could get one, stupid taxes here, they make is so expensive to get a car with more than 200 HP

that is a nice ///M Roadster, I'm jealous

oh, and it has 27km om the counter, did you get a discount

[Z4MHawk]

Same issue here with the Bluetooth code. My ///M didn't come with Manuals and I was told the code was printed on a tab in the operations manual. I went to the dealer and they told me it would cost $170 US to access the code on the BMW system!!!!! What?

The code is printed under the trunk floor covering? I owe you a pint if that is the case.....

[crfine88]

Congratulations! That is one fine automobile if I do say so myself.

did you feel like this the fist time you saw her?

The ULF module that has the 4 digit code is behind the carpet in the trunk,
Its mounted to the panel that would be the back of the drivers seat,

The carpet isn't too hard to take off, Do a search for "dice installs" and see how people have taken the carpet off for that and follow it,
and when you get the code don't looks it

Paying the dealer for that is ridiculous

Doh! You know you're right! I wanted a clear one for my Z4.. I can just swap the two! It was right in front of me and I couldn't see it! Another great looking Imola Red M.. Congratulations.... Chuck I

I wasn't able to find a carpet removal quide for my roadster (coupes are well documented), but I to access the bulk head behind the seats. My set-up seems different and wasn't able to find the 4 digit code. It looks like I have a amp on the right side and a control module on the left (see bad pic). The center console access is no there. Any guess where the code tag might be? TIA
