Thanks for the remarks
The car came debadged from the factory. Overhere it is an zero cost option, which I always take.
We don't have a sport package here, really. At the time I was ordering the car, there was a special package which included individual color and individual leather and all the stuff I wanted, so I took it.

As far as the exhausts, I don't really have much to say, I'm afraid. They cut off the diesel pipes and welded on the 4.4 mufflers. That's it. According to my dealer it makes no difference whether you have the origianal diesel mufflers or petrol mufflers (performance wise). But it looks sooooo much better.

My next mod is : Hamann pedals and foot rest and maybe the Hamann interior kit (clear carbon coated...you can see it on their website...looks very, very cool). but I need to see it first on a larger pic (which I can't find )

Cool motor, especially the rear pipes, well done.
BMW should have done the diesel's rear like this as standard.
Phenomenal engine.

Very nice. First cool looking 3.0d I've seen. Always had a problem with the silly standard exhaust. Tell us how it rides after adding the chip.

Love those front Euro clears... and the carbon black is a great color - looks like midnight blue from some angles, and saphire black from others.
Very nice!!
