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

What colour are you getting?

ekaz 06-07-2005 02:25 PM

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

Steved 06-07-2005 02:30 PM

Ah! Good choice. :thumbup:

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 :D

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

Looks awesome Steve. Fingers crossed that this one treats you the way the first one should have. Glad everything worked out!!

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'... :bustingup

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

Steved 06-07-2005 03:01 PM

I managed to get it lowered by 'just' 5mm. My dealer couldn't go any further since the car is being supplied by BMW UK and they needed to report back to BMW that all checks and settings were as they were supposed to be. I might be able to get them to take it a little further once I've had it for a few thousand miles.

Next step is to get the front windows tinted to match the rears, then I'm still considering the resonator mod.
