Glad the two tone horn is standard.
Thanks Ausmotive!
I don’t understand why carbon ceramics continue to be so expensive, now that it is much more main stream?
Metalic paint, let me guess, $1850?
What’s the delta between these, the UK and US list prices…
Ugly.
Metallic is standard I believe.
Yes, metallic paint is standard. I’ll add it to the list.
Nice exclusive.
Still in my price range for a ‘decent sports car’, except for the “1” after the “$” sign. Ha!
Only option I would get is the M Carbon ceramic brakes, expensive but worth it. The standard car is extremely well speced over previous M3 models of the past.
Does anyone know how much heavier the M3 is over the M4?
Weird thing is that loads of the promo pictures are of yas marinas blue, but you can’t actually order that colour at the moment, its not available for australian orders (at least not for the M4).
About 40k overpriced.
UK price for M3 = GBP 56k. AU price = AUD 157k
UK price for Macan Turbo = GBP 59k. AU price = AUD 123k
