I have a cool wee file that basically goes through all the changes the E46 M3 has gone through since it's release.  I'll try and attach it now.  It's why I went for a 53 plate.  It is facelift with the revised interior dash etc and exterior LED's - Cool!

There's a detailer in the Falkirk/Grangemouth area. I tried to get them to come round to do a quote on mine and chat but they cancelled one appointment and didn't show for the other. For my money it's worth the journey to PB.

If you're going to be advertising your services on this forum you need to be having a wee chat with the boss. PM kbannon

talking of changes i was working at Calterdon BMW in Inverness yesterday and they had a 3-series individual there, it was in what can only be described as metallic tangerine!  i've never seen the colour before and it looked nicer than you'd imagine it to look

The metallic tangerine is a great colour.

 

I saw an M3cs in this colour for sale on piston heads a while back.  Was apparently ther only M3CS in its colour in the country. 

If i was to get a new car it would be in this colour

Does anyone have a picture of this colour??? sounds quite nice!!!

While on the subject, is there a website that has a full colour chart for all BMW colours past and present???? it would be great if it exists.
