What I ordered:
2013 128i (duh)
-Carbon Black Metallic (apparently a 2013 color only?)
-Black Boston leather
-Aluminum trim
-6MT
-M Sports Package (ZMP)
-No sunroof (slick-top!)

Super excited. This will be my first BMW and ED as well!
Be really careful for the first 200-300 miles until you heat cycle the tires a few times and wear off the slippery outer layer. It felt like I was driving on ice for a while.

Be careful on the Autobahn because your speed limiter is set to 155 MPH. Mine went to 135 MPH in a heartbeat. I would have pushed it further if it had more miles on it.

Take the warning triangle and first aid kit out when you drop off the car or they won't be there at redelivery. Tell your local dealer to leave the Euro plates on the car or they will dissapear.
