Very nice. I can't wait for mine to get here. Oh the agony of waiting.
Good luck with this one!

Exact same as yours except I chose the comfort seats. Other than that, you have my truck! Now give it back! j/k
Even the running boards..

Ah! Good choice.

I drove one with the Comfort Seats that BMW loaned me for a month and they were really nice. Very 'comfortable' But I live on very twisty roads and I found the Sport Seats ultimately better for the journey's I do. We drove 2000 miles to Switzerland and back in the BMW loaner and I couldn't fault the comfort seats on a long journey.

When are you getting yours?

Hey! Those are pics of my 4.8is. But the steering is on the wrong side. j/k

Congrats! Steve. I love the color combo you choose, exact same as mine. Good that BMW gave you a new truck.

Glad the seats live up to the name. Mine should be here the end of this week or sometime next week. Already planned the window tinting and have the V1 and stealthone waiting...
I like that drop, anyone know wher I can get it done around Chicago?

In case anyone asks, those pictures were taken after 1 treatment of Zymol HD-Cleanse, Meguiars Qwik Detailer with a Clay Bar, 3 coats of Zaino Z-2, 1 coat of Meguiars Liquid Carnuba and 2 coats of Zymol Titaniam Wax. Either I'm very thorough or 'very confused'...

Do you have it lowered already, or is that stock?
