congrats. how did you do these: carbon rear lip spoiler and black grills from the website?

How much was the deal?

thanks.

[ciwhamc]

I had to order the m Performance parts at the dealer. They had the price sheet released last week.

Quoted 49k

[sfheat]

Got it thanks. Will they give you a good deal off the list price? Will they keep the original?

[ciwhamc]

Hard to say. It sounds like they are not that willing to deal on the price. But you never know.

You sir , have very, very good taste. Can tell by your car selections and color/optioning on the 2. Pretty much just amazing. very similar to my build. I think you will find yourself very at home as the interior is very similar to the classics you are accustomed to, finally they have brought back the driver slanted dash. Got the chance to sit in a brand new mineral white one at the dealer, and it the car really does feel like it "wraps" around you.

[ciwhamc]

Thanks for the compliment. Yeah the seats remind me a lot of my 540i 6 speed they came with the e34 m5 seats. The worst part about it is that I have to wait to get it.

Nice colour combo - love the Terra interior. Congrats for having the balls to go w something other than wall-to-wall black (blah, blah, blah).

+1,
this is what it looks like on alpine.

[ciwhamc]

Looks Great. My last 3 cars were black. I am so tired of it.

My 135 was Alpine and I got many compliments on it. Something about that contrast is just amazing. Esp because it comes stock with gun metal wheels. Then topping it off with the 2 tone interior. I am hoping for a full blown photoshoot, hi res, when you get this.

[ciwhamc]

YOU CAN COUNT ON IT!

There is a place about 1 hours south of where I am that I love to take my cars at dusk for photos. It's a ritual by now.

Congrats !! June will feel a long ways to go. I know, ordered mine 5 days ago and it's rough waiting.

[ciwhamc]

It's horrible. I want it now.

[Dr. Indiana Jones]

Terra works equally well if not better w MG too believe it or not...

[ciwhamc]

Just got my production number about a month early. :-)

[valentinbmw]

Awesome, i wanted so much that combo but in the rush of getting the car sooner i went for the standard alcantara hexagon.

[ciwhamc]

Just went in to production. Estimated completion date of 5/26. Oh the wait is worse now.

The stock wheels look SO much better on white.

Congrats on the order!

[bladeomatic]

Congrats on the lovely build. I'll now go to feeling sorry for you as you painfully await that long boat ride. :-)

Plus I am on the west coast so a little longer than you east coasters.
