Much like Jack Baruth’s Lime Green Audi S5, this BMW M3 is painted in a one-off manner, although whoever ordered the car didn’t reach as far back as Jack’s 1970′s era lime green.

The M3 is painted in Dakar Yellow, a hue available on the late 1990′s M3 and M Coupe models. Costing an extra $5,000, this M3 is also festooned with all sorts of carbon fiber crap that will make your vehicle faster by exactly 0.00 seconds. Either way, we applaud the buyer for not getting an M3 in white, black, grey, silver or blue, and exponentially cooler than the lame Frozen Gray paint.

Famed BMW tuner Will Turner (of Turner Motorsports) has just been the first to waste money take delivery of the first Frozen Gray M3 coupe in the U.S. The $77,600 sports car, hardly different from a standard M3 except for the color, wheels, and mild suspension tune, is one of just 30 production Frozen Gray M3′s planned for production. In the Photo Gallery, you can see several other special touches that come with the FG package, including a body-colored license plate frame, special ID tag, and the paint care warning sticker. Either Will is going to keep this one for life or flip it in a week, so lets keep our eyes on Ebay.

For the record, you could buy a used M3 coupe, put these wheels on it, and paint it this color for significantly less.
