Yeah the OEM one. Had bought it second hand, but we insured the package so hopefully all is well. Bummer though, was a good price.

My question is what's on the side mirrors? Icicles? Never driven in snow in my life, so at first glance to my untrained eye it looks like 1,000 bird shits, but I can't tell if it's ice or slush or what's going on.

I really need to come out there for the super bowl and hitch a ride to work with you one day. It's a good thing you're a doctor cause I may have a heart attack and I may need to bring an extra pair of pants and undies as well. hehehe. Would love to go for a snowy ride in an IS one day to hear and see and experience that.
definitely!! let's just not discuss your undies plans too much! lol

I hit the 5000 mile mark, and so far the score is zero launch control event, one coffee spill, minimal stereo usage, 18 snow days, and not a single episode of breaking wind. I see cars for sale with "never seen rain or snow" or "never been tracked", but not "never been farted in". Perhaps TMI?
lol. nice summary!!!

Think I may potentially fly to South Carolina and take the BMW Driving School 2-day program in our cars instead. =P Same change of pants and undies will be needed though.

I want to sign up for a drivers education at limerock, the day i am planning on attending has a restiction on the of cars of (at or lower than 86dBa). Do you think i will have any issues? Does anyone know or have access to a measuring device for the PE? I honestly have no idea as to decible readings or measuring the voulume of sound. Any help or suggestions are more than appreciated.

I see you already hit up the other thread about this. I didn't know limerock had that low of a limit. It seems like it is right on the edge. Have you tried calling the track office? I wonder if they would give you any kind of help.

I havent called yet but its something i will inquire about when i do. The closest i have found is the 1 coupe M review on Edmunds, they have the 1M full throttle recorded at 77.5dB. I cant imagine the Perf. Exhaust is much/if any louder than the 1M.

My car sustained its first wound, idiot valet backed the car into parking spot and kissed the concrete wall. I was livid when I saw the mark seeing how I always go out of my way to make sure my car is kept in pristine condition.

Man, glad you got her home without incident. Stash her in the garage until it warms up later this week - it's mayhem over here in 'Bama as well.

They said they note the condition of every car they take in so they'll check the file for that day to see if my car had any marks written down. I wouldn't be surprised if someone retroactively changes the paper.
