Of course. All I can do is ask, but it could happen that BMW Switzerland says the stripes are exclusively for the F1 Team Edition and won't sell them. But I will ask if there is any interest.

The active cruise control is amazing, very relaxing on long highway trips. It is a bit slow though, it holds your speed down until the car in front of you really, really changed the lane. Furthermore, I think the distance in the lowest setting of the 4 available ist still too long, because cars jump in the gap the system lets open all the time. Other than that, it is perfect. For an E91 it makes absolutely sense. On very sporty cars like the M3 / 135 I am not that sure.

I personally think that has something to do with BMW quitting F1... ;-)

On the other hand, in a few years this possibly could be the other way round with the F1 Team Edition holding its price very well because of the very limited production run.

My M3 Fully Covered and Bonus protected in UK was £350 or under 600 CHF, quotes here are from 1900 CHF upwards... aghhh - who do you use ??
Zurich, but I don't think you will get much cheaper than 1900 CHF!!! Driving hot cars is a bit expensive here in Switzerland. ;-)

But if you are finally here and have some time, we could take on a nice tour on the Klausenpass, Sustenpass, Grimsel and Furka - the most beautiful mountain pass route in whole Europe (about 350km of just mountain passes and nothing else, 4 in a row). Of course if the weather gets nicer again, because 370hp and 550Nm of torque are a bit lively in the snow. ;-)
