very nice, congrats.... I would have loved that car, just out of my price range.....for now.

Can you give us your review of the two cars? Hell, I would like the car for the suspension changes, more power, and also bigger and better choice in wheels.

I will write up something more proper, but if you must know, this car laughs at whatever you throw at it. Just to give you an example, my 135i had the BMW performance suspension which is leaps beyond the stock M-sport suspension, and this car makes the other one look like an amateur. It's hard to describe, but it corners flawlessly and effortlessly. Ride is sharp and stiff, but then again, the performance suspension was somewhat stiff some I'm very used to it.

Quite frankly, as a purist I can appreciate what the ride brings to table stock, so as far as performance goes I will probably do very little and not anytime soon. I would never touch the suspension, by the way, it's amazingly accurate/sharp.

Cosmetically, I'm definitely doing the shadow line grills, the carbon fiber bmw performance spoiler, and possibly the carbon fiber mirror covers.

I'm also considering having the wheels powder coated a very dark gunmetal or gloss black, but way down the road.

thank you buddy. And yes, I only mod tastefully and I can certainly appreciate what BMW has already done for me, so no need for drastic changes.
