Got rid of my E46 and bought this beaut...
Loving it so far, it's damn quick and handles lovely.

Love the chestnut interior as well. Comes with all options minus rear heated seats and heads up display.

Here she is when i first got her:

Small upgrade...

I have a titanium trim so it doesn't stand out as much as it would on a gloss black for example.

Color matches license plate cover... car is dirty so the plate is clean and white but car isn't. Will be washing shortly.

Yeah i really like it, and its not the type of red that really blares in your face.

Wonder if there are any gamers on here that will like my plate :D

Just buy the replacement housing, and you can have whatever you want illuminate from under the door (can be BMW logo or M logo, whatever)

Was only about 35 Canadian.
