As the title states, I want to know if it is at all possible to order a M3 with the Black leather w/ red stitching, as in the Matte Black M3 special edition? I just looks so sick. Anyone out there know if this is possible?

Thanks
A custom detailer will do it for you also. I don't know of any though but I did have a friend get his merc stitched a couple years back.
You can order the Black/Red interior ala Frozen gray style but I don't think it has red stitching.
Yes you can but you'll have to go the Individual route and BMW N/A will have to approve it. Shouldn't be a problem though. And I agree....looks fantastic.
If BMWNA approves it (it will go through Individual) they'll charge you a lot of money for it. A lot.

how much is a lot? and how do you know this?
From reading other threads it sounds like BMWNA doesn't approve all interiors as they are "untested" or can have "safety issues" in the North American maket. They have been know to deny a lot of interiors do to those reasons. What exactly does untested or safety issues mean when it comes to interior? No idea.

My dealer told me that individual paint starts at $5-6k and individual interiors tend to me more expensive than that and it all depends on what you want. More than likley the interior will be more than $5-6k.
Individual interior (color) cost me less than two grand. As far as stitching, you can get any color you want for $2500 and an extra 6-10 weeks lead time. I opted out of the stitching simply because I did not want to wait that long.

You can contact Individual directly and ask for their prices, you do not have to talk to BMWNA.

interesting. Could you PM me the contact for this?

so they quoted you $2500 for the stitching? or are you saying they charged you $2500 for both the individual color AND the stitching?

Yes, it's possible. "Ringmeister" in New Jersey got black leather with red stitching. There are some pictures here.
