Is the Nardo Gray a wrap or repaint? I'm assuming wrap, but if it's a repaint I'd be very suspicious of that car's history and the quality of the repaint job. Hopefully not an issue!

Good luck with your choice. I think you'll enjoy either car! đź‘Ť

It’s funny you say that because the guy actually is someone who sells and is in the airplane industry and he specifically told me that it was a $9000 paint job that he got and it’s way better than a wrap that would’ve peeled off after a couple years. I attached the photos of what it looks like to this post.

And I haven’t test driven it yet b/c its literally at Tesla right now getting some kind of computer update fixed so I know it’ll be in good health if they just had it hopefully.

As far as the history I looked at the Carfax and he also runaba company where you can rent luxury cars for the day so I know they had to keep it really and in good all the time Because I would actually see customers leading reviews on Google saying how much they enjoyed Printing it for like their spouse’s birthday and would have a picture of the car. The mileage is only at 25k So the way I drive it would probably fall out of Tesla warranty By age instead of miles because I probably won’t put another 25k on it in the next year and a half.

My plan the whole time was to get the red caliper, the black rims and Nardo grey paint. I know a lot of Tesla owners don’t care for that stuff but to me it makes such a dramatic difference in the aesthetics of the car that it’s totally worth it . And I feel like especially where I live it’s becoming such a popular car to drive that so many of them are looking like little clones now
But the fact that somebody 20 minutes from me was selling it with all that already done, With less miles on it and at a way cheaper price despite it being just a standard range plus kind of seemed like something That was meant to be for my first Tesla.
Also main reason I was replying again was it’s actually not a truly Nardo grey color he told me it’s the exact paint color that the Kia Stinger has if you ever see one of those driving around and I knew what he was talking about right away, they always look really sharp when I see one Despite being a Kia

Edit: Also last sidenote after looking at all these websites that are literally in business to market cars all over the country like: cars.com findmyev.com , vroom.com carvana.com CarGurus truecar.com , edmunds, autotrader etc…..lmao I can list them off by heart at this point it’s a sick joke…
But in the end I actually wound up finding this guy on the OfferUp app.
Surprisingly there and on the Facebook marketplace, at least locally, I found the best deals for private sellers and people who took care of their model three like it was their child.

Appears you have found the unique M3 for you. Will stand out from the rest, that is for sure. Believe TSportline did a gray wrap on the owners M3P about a year or two ago with black rims (P already has red calipers), looks super nice.
