I live in MD too and have been running no front plate for over a year. I commute from Rockville to Silver Spring daily on Rt. 200. No tickets so far and I haven't been pulled over for no front plate.

Great ... I rarely use the 200 but I'm close by to your area. I'll horn if I see you now need winter tires

In MD, cops and state troopers don't press you too much for front plate, especially on SUVs. However, I've had GTRs and M3s in the past and occasionally got pulled over. All they do is say you need to have a front plate and write you a warning, never a fine/ticket (at least in my experience).

What's going on with the pic uploader on the Mobile app? The compression is terrible and causing the pics to be blurry/jagged/pixelated. Is there a way to fix this? I have more pics to upload, but they look terrible when I upload them.

Did you need to put spacers on to get those tires to fit? I have the same set coming today and I can’t find a solid answer on if I need spacers or not.

No spacers needed with this setup. Ride feels great and no rubbing.

Awesome in those colors, congrats! Where did you buy it and what sort of deal did you get?
Deal is:

12k miles @ 36 mos
MF: .0000128
Residual: 57%
MSRP: $81795
Final Sale Price: $73700 (after discount, incentives, fees, taxes, etc)
Drive off: $3500
Payment: $928

I'm in MD, so we pay ALL taxes upfront (6%), so no $8xx payment for us unless we put down MSDs, more money down or get more money off the vehicle.

I got 10% off MSRP and $2750 in lease credits, which are applied after taxes, not before taxes.
I'm in Maryland also. Where did u buy?

Congrats! I picked up mine this past Friday.

https://x3.xbimmers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1680001

I will say the DMV area is a tough market to crack. If you can make the 4 hr drive up to NJ or PA you can easily get 12% off MSRP before incentives with buy-rate money factor. Lots of brokers posting on leasehackr website.

Very few dealers in the DMV will do buy-rate, and if they do they won’t discount the % off msrp that deep. (i.e: 8% off msrp per-incentive with buy-rate MF).

If you ask for more off MSRP they’ll start marking up the MF.

While I didn’t get 12% preincentive with buy rate I was lucky enough to get 14% preincentive with marked up MF that ended up being equivalent to 12% with buy-rate.

I think with the combination of it being the last month of the year, and the fact these cars aren’t selling well (compared to the m340) I was able to get a great deal in the DMV.
