Today is the day- 2023 40i tanzanite blue over tartufo

Orient330iNYC · 08-12-2022, 09:33 AM

Unfortunately my CA was off and they processed the car but no paint damage that i can see. Full decon and hopefully a light correction coming up!

JParsonss · 08-12-2022, 09:36 AM

Looks great. Almost as nice as Merino Bay Blue

JJacksonIII · 08-12-2022, 10:42 AM

Wow. Love that color. Post more pics when you can!

GuyOh · 08-12-2022, 11:52 AM

Congrats! More pics!!! Love the black rims!

jdloyd01 · 08-12-2022, 11:54 AM

Great looking ride

Orient330iNYC · 08-12-2022, 12:48 PM

More pics coming, I need to wait for shade to do the exterior decon and correction.
I've started on the interior modifications, first up is dashcam, v1 hardwire. First impression taking apart some of the panels is how much nicer the materials are, the panels on my x3 had no sound insulation and fit a little loose. Running the wires is going to be interesting

Please post a Cold Start Video of your 40i M Sport Pro Exhaust. Curious how loud it is.

I think you will be disappointed. It was pretty quiet. I'll try to get a recording, but it was nothing like an m40i exhaust.

Noooooooo boooo

What a gorgeous car!! More pictures please...

Orient330iNYC · 08-12-2022, 10:19 PM

the correction and decon took longer than expected and i ran out of daylight. did manage to get my V1 and dashcam hardwired, not sure if i am going to leave the concealed display where it is. also installed the euro wide blind spot mirrors.
some observations:
DHP is awesome, i am able to maneuver at low speeds very much like my X3. the sliding sensation will take some getting used to.

random pics:

Bmwjay85 · 08-12-2022, 11:05 PM

First pic ive seen with headlights turned on. 😬

Congratulations and drive in good health

awesoM · 08-12-2022, 11:56 PM

Looks awesome. Starting to have buyers remorse with my 2022 I picked up 3.5 weeks ago

GeorgiaBMWFan · 08-13-2022, 06:28 AM

That's the nicest looking '23 I have seen. Great spec - gorgeous - well done and congratulations!

Orient330iNYC · 08-13-2022, 07:48 AM

i will say i was a bit surprised that tartufo was darker than i expected, i thought it would be closer to the cognac.

i also realize that photos do not do it a justice.
