Will this package be available in the US?

BForbes · 03-30-2009, 06:27 PM

It already is available a la carte. I look forward to seeing the BMW tune kit thats coming.

amdmaxx · 03-30-2009, 06:57 PM

I'll take the suspension, wheels, shifter, exhaust, seats and updated N54 Turbo please.. Keep the steering wheel (I dont race), run-flats and keep it under 40k..

Good read. I wish they would stick an airbag sensor in the performance seats and give them to us already!!!!

I dont know Max. It will most likely be under 45k...ha. It better DESTROY anything but an M3.

I already have the CF rear spoiler and just ordered the rocker panels. They break up the drooping belly line a bit, which looks really awkward from some angles. Not a fan of the wheels, I like the stock 261M wheels better.

Im thinking that I will slowly amass the perf parts over the next couple of years. But im not going for the 269s. Im leaning towards the 313s. Now if they will just get unbackordered.

This is nothing more than an ad.

Mark, everytime you post all I ever see is your sig and then I dream of that time long, long ago...Damn, just damn! Nothing like those corners where the adrenaline starts to pump, and time stands still...it's you, the car, and the track...that picture sums it up...the back stretch is for sissys!

There is one here in the showroom in Charleston. Cant remember if they have the seats which are the sex, but brakes, wheels, exhaust...etc.

Love the car... but I just can't stand the saggy rocker panels.
