Fire Orange BMW M3 Sedan

Check out this Fire Orange BMW M3 Sedan with a factory six-speed manual transmission! The owner initially wanted Inka Orange but it was not available that time so the factory gave him a secondary option: Fire Orange. The end result is a marvelous looking F80 M3-build.

This car is owned by Chris Marino, General Sales Manager of Century West BMW, a dealership in America. Because of his love for BMW, he also didn’t hold back in this build. The car received the M-Performance treatment with anything and everything that could be had. Decked out with everything carbon-fiber, this M3 boasts a CF front aero kit, mirror covers, rear diffuser, exhaust tips and a lot of other carbon fiber parts here and there. To add to that, Marino also included an M-Performance exhaust gives this M3 a serious howl.

“I’m not a purist, per-se, but can appreciate the purist tradition and can see though those lenses. Accordingly, I had to make this a 6 speed manual transmission,” Marino told us. With manual transmissions becoming ever-scarce, Marino designed this M3 with a purist nod from the design phase. While not exactly evocative of the Inca-Orange 2002Tii that Marino had in mind, this M3 states its own case for being rare and collectible before it ever leaves the showroom floor.”

“I design many of our M-cars with the solitary thought that this M may someday wind up in a barn—not neglected, but appreciated and kept for decades only to be found and have the world-reminded of how amazing, unique and well-engineered BMWs are,” says Marino.
