Its still old, its the DVD based navigation that came out in 2003.
Older BMWs can be updated but still no where near as fast as google maps on an Iphone.

I have to admit, before I saw the pictures I was like, "meh", but DAYUM that is one sweet ride! Looks brand new, but better. And +1 on the original wheels
edit: I see cross-drilled rotors. Did you forget to add that to the list?

Theres a bunch I am missing from the list however I want to say those are OEM..
Most of the suspension was already replaced with OEM parts. The motor and trans are brand new and not because anything was wrong with them, it was because my buddy was bored often and had too much money/time.
Most of it is original, the front and rear bumpers were repainted. Front from rock chips and rear just because.
The chassis itself has 105k miles on it.
Yes angel eyes are on there as well.
I am replacing the interior LED lights as i find them to be tacky.

wow the gloss black exterior trim really makes the black look pretty. What your friend did was tasteful as fuck
Alcantara the seats are like the inverse of my BRZ. Leather inserts and alcantara bolsters vs alcantara inserts and leather bolsters.

Recently moved to a new house and my commute to work is less than 2 miles now. So its a bit of a daily driver but not so much of one.
Will keep it till I get bored with it or want something new. I came to terms with my illness.
