Thanks. The Head and Taillights were heavily camo'ed, but it had the same type of tube LEDS you see in the LCI E90 (duh) and I couldn't see the front corners. Definately a EU spec car though. I like that they finally put the blinker back on the top. (its an OCD thing)

There are a lot more worse things to be OCD on than blinkers.

Its the xDrive35i, and in Europe (the car was EU spec based on the orange tails) you order options a la carte. Unless its M-Sport, you can have the chrome trim on anything. (You wouldn't get it at all in the US on a 6 cylinder car)

I am told that in middle-east chrome trim is considered as more premium item as compared to shadow trim.

Not just the Middle East, I know folks in the US that prefer the Chromeline trim on their 3er over the Shadowline that's mandatory with the US Sportpaket. They claim it makes the car look more expensive. Never understood that.

Wheels are definitely 20", and they look really nice with the polished front and black inners. I feel like I've seen a similar design before.
