Get a Short Shifter and a clutch stop. Those helped me with my learning.

Transmission issues, power top problems with the vert, clutch issues like you said, few oil issues, etc.

If anything, I wouldn't buy a first year car.

can i see some pics of your car??? inside and out... its kinda hard to get ahold of the sg to begin with....

what options do u have?

You can buy whatever you like my friend, would never take it personally.....unless you lived next door.

Don't blame you for wanting the combo, its exotic looking and rare (classy as well).

Would you believe, the only pics I still have are the ones from the dealer before I picked it up? Weak I know.

19s, premium pack., heated seats, xenons, aluminum trim.

Here you go......

looks hot, can't wait. this will be the longest 6-8 weeks of my adult life. did u pre-order yours or was it on the lot?

i configured mine exactly like how you have it but adding navi and park distance control. i'm really not crazy about the pdc dimples on the back bumper, but i also dont trust myself parallel parking around town.

if she was hot i probably would have gotten shafted like i did at Park Ave BMW from a stealer there...

Yeah, my buddy just ordered an 05 Imola Red ZHP 330 coupe and he just called........."It's been 3 weeks, where the fuck is my vin #?

He's been tracking it on BMWs website.

I ordered the car, really wanted a custom color actually but at the time they weren't accepting them. I'm happy with the color combo though and it saved me a few bucks.

Appreciate the compliments, front looks much better with the painted reflectors (definitely worth getting).

not gonna distinguish a 325 from an M3, but you think that they'll distinguish the C6
