mfatuation's Santorini Blue BMW M3
mfatuation's Santorini Blue BMW M3 We got a call from Matt Stellas (aka mfatuation) shortly after Bimmerfest requesting a paint correction for this very special Santorini Blue M3. Apparently during transport back home to NJ, the car wash wiped down incorrectly. Take a look at the exterior paint correction. We also opted for Auto Finesse Illusion due to its show car status.
