I'd absolutely love to start the M3 collection (and add an M2 when that comes out) as those are the cars I can most relate to. Were these all made by the same manufacturer?

So, it's a high time to start building your collection again. That year will bring couple of the M3's and M4's so you may collect them.

They are made by several manufacturers, like Paragon-Models, AUTOart, Kyosho, OttO Mobile, GT Spirit, etc.

I would like to see you collection pics.

Great customs! YMB surprisingly suits the E92, and I think that E24 with that color is also something interesting.
White Alpina is gorgeous. Love it!

Can you disclose your method of repainting your models? What kind of primer and paint do you use, how many coats, etc? I'll be very grateful since I'm thinking about some changes on my models.
My M635CSi is currently being repainted but I commissioned that job to my BMW Dealer's Service - I hope that they will face up with the task.

Great collection! I also use to be on DX as m_power but since moved on to Diecastsociety.com. Maybe I'll snap a few quick updated pics of my collection and post up

Mani59 · 04-07-2015, 01:10 PM

Very nice collection; I have seen you on DiecastXchange I think (although I don't have time to post much anymore!).

boi222 · 04-07-2015, 01:51 PM

CARBON1230 - any ideas when the f82 m4 will come out in 1:18 ? there was a thread about this in the M4 forums but it losted steam and no more updates..

I must look at that site - I've heard something about it but never registered there.
Pics of collection are always welcomed.

Raj59, you're another person here with a divine BMW collection.

It was supposed to be available in February and actually it was ready, but BMW didn't approved that model and now it's being improved by Paragon-Models. It's said that first models will hit dealers in autumn.

nbennettksu · 04-07-2015, 02:20 PM

Awesome collection. Your wife must be happy they're out of the house for the time being...

70 size hole and fiber optics.

OP: superb collection. Thanks for sharing!

Pure · 04-08-2015, 07:34 AM

You have a great collection of cars and should be proud of that. Thank you for sharing.
Poland is a beautiful country, plus there pretty girls like singer Gosia Andrzejewicz.

Greetings to Poland!

Jamesons Viggen · 04-08-2015, 11:39 AM

Nice!

We have a lot of models in common. I spotted you have the UT dealer edition E36/7 M Roadster in silver. This was super rare in the us and took me three years to secure one.

This was about 16 months and 50 cars ago:

positiveions · 04-08-2015, 04:13 PM

Nice collection. Too bad, most dealers in US don't carry diecasts in their boutique anymore.

Law · 04-10-2015, 01:15 PM

Absolutely fantastic

PLCZ4MC · 04-12-2015, 01:46 PM

Everything is good. Just wish they have a Z4M Roadster too like they do with all the other models. Only the Z4 has Coupe only : ( and not a convertible.

CARBON1230 · 04-12-2015, 03:01 PM

Jamesons Viggen, fantastic collection!

It's a pity that they didn't make the roadster version. Likewise, there is only X6 M and no X5 M on the Diecast market.

However, maybe it's worth trying to custom Z4 roadster using parts from M Coupe building the Z4M Roadster?

Patrys@BimmerTech · 04-12-2015, 03:13 PM

Wow! Fantastic collection!
I am so glad I found this thread today. In the morning I thought I would look for some nice miniatures of BMWs to decorate our new office

Where can we get a couple of them for a reasonable price in Poland?

CARBON1230 · 04-12-2015, 03:20 PM

Thank you!
It's hard to say where a general place where models can be found for reasonable price is. PM me if you have any specific models that you are looking for and I'll try to tell you where to search.

Really awesome collection and nicely displayed. I would think any dealer would be all over this kind of exhibition on their dealership floor. I know my local has a space reserved up front in which they usually show a couple of classic BMWs, but it would be awesome to see this kind of display there..

Agent-GHQ · 04-15-2015, 11:54 PM

Dayum... That's a sik ass collection!

I hope AutoArt do a proper E92 with ZCP and black interior in alpine white. 😊

Autoart isn't likely, but there is this:
