I didn't want that issue on a brand new car so it just so happens that they were unloading this car that same day. Part of me is happy because I really like the mineral white in person, but on the other hand some of the options weren't my choice. oh well, still love her!

Sorry to hear that but yes Mineral White looks great!

Looking good! One question... film-tinted sidemarkers or sprayed?

Awesome, did you cut off the original tips and add new ones? Any pointers to what kind of tips you decided on?

So far I've known only Supersprint's tips for oem muffler.

yep they needed to cut off the old tips and extend the pipes coming from the muffler. The tips I got were these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/281322588638...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Thanks topaz, it looks really good, quad tips make the car aggressive and I too don't want to alter the sound too much.

You need to post more shots of your rear!

I have a 50i as a loaner and now and all I can say is WOW! It get about half of the MPGs my 35i gets (have the E70) but it's superfast and very fun to drive. I'm dreading picking up the E70 already...

Good one with the wheels. Looks menacing and nice.
