Wow, very nice. Is that your son in the picture with you? He must think it's awesome to have a dad with such a cool car!

bozola · 06-22-2008, 10:28 AM

Yes it is... I bought the car around noon.. and we went around 6PM to 'look' at them. The salesman played along and told us it was sold.....

After 10 mins.. I told my son it was sold..... TO ME!

3toM · 06-22-2008, 01:29 PM

So does your son get to drive it??

ptack · 06-22-2008, 02:37 PM

Excellent. Now add the shadowline grilles. That's my stock suggestion for most of the colors when you get the shadowline trim. I think having chrome only around the grilles stands out too much in those cases and looks very conservative.

We def need some interior shots!!

Congrats bozola. My 8 year old son is anxiously awaiting the arrival out my 1. I bet your son is anxiously awaiting his turn behind the wheel, legally or not!

Looks great, love the color. Thanks for the pictures, I learned something new today.

I saw the close-up picture (#14) of the rear end and notice a key hole under the 128i tag. I had to run out to the garage to see if I had the same thing. Pretty cool, looks much better hidden, but I wonder how many owners know the key hole is there.

I thought I studied the manual pretty good, but I guess I miss that one.
