sick!
how much did it cost?

jthorst75 · 12-09-2009, 09:48 AM

I bought it at Tischer BMW before they put it on sale (go figure). I think they have it now for $555 plus $20 for paddles and I bought the alcantara trim cover which is $54. It was spendy but once I saw it at the Frankfurt auto show I just had to have it. I also bought the alcantara shifter/boot and e-brake too to complete the package.

looks like its cheaper to get the performance wheel. by 130 bucks.

I could have sworn I've seen the M Sport wheel listed for like 350-400 though.

BrokenVert · 12-09-2009, 12:48 PM

Wait, the M Sport wheel is more expensive??????????

Correct me if I've done my math wrong, but yes.

Edit: I forgot to add the $20 for the paddles on the performance wheel. But you still are saving $110 for the performance wheel.

My car is actually a US spec car just with euro headlights installed. So no euro here; I couldn't afford it in euro anyways.

That looks really good! I believe the yellow piece is so you always know where the center of your steering wheel is when you're on the track.
