That. Is. Simply. GORGEOUS. Could I check with you - are your brake calipers painted black or left in normal steel color please?
And your headlights - bi xenon? Awesome color mate! |

You have a beautiful new car. Congrats.
Interesting, my calipers weren't painted, and I thought LEDs were part of the M package.

On the BMW site they have 20" wheels and LED headlights as its own stand alone option for $2900, I like LED but not $2900 worth I opted for the 20" wheels for $1300 instead. Yes my calipers are painted black, I thought they all came painted.

In Canada the LED light pkg ($2900) must be ordered with the Tech Pkg (for another $4000) !!! It just doesn't stop adding up!! But I ordered them anyway.

Elias, could I just ask about the carbon black - does it look dark-bluish/purplish under certain lighting angles? I thought the pictures you took showed different hues under different lightings - but I wasn't sure if that's just your camera setting or otherwise.
Thanks in advance for your clarification! |

color is more dark blue to black. Thats the reason I chose the carbon black because of the different shades depending on the lighting and the angle on which the light hits the car. Hope that helps! |

Yes it does! Thanks so much Elias! I ordered mine in Carbon Black as well, but was having serious thoughts because I didn't want another pure black car (my present ride is an F02 in Sapphire Black, which we are keeping as the family carrier).
Now I can rest assured while waiting for the F13's arrival Thanks a bunch again - and congrats on the new car! |
