Love the color combo! Painted reflectors, drop and paint those fangs or whatever they are called. Perfect.

Thanks guys!

As for the auto vs. manual...

I got the paddle shifters so I can shift when I want, but not have to when I don't. Best of both worlds IMO.

Did you get the heated seats for when the temp drops to 95?

At least that ZF 6-speed is a good auto. The car is no slower with it, which is not typical at all for torque converter auto boxes. I like rowing the gears personally but my car can be a chore in low speed maneuvering--I've never unintentionally killed the engine more times than I have with this one. Throttle input is laggy and imprecise from a standing start, which can make it very easy to either overcook or undercook the revs to modulate the clutch smoothly.

If this car was a few thousand less, I'd be driving one right now.

Any intention of doing any minor modifications to your new BMW?

No plans for mods (not really my style) except tint on the glass and maybe some truck nuts.

I drove my co-worker's 335 Coupe and was amazed at how quick it was!

Congratulations on the purchase! Save up for speeding tickets

I keep having to check myself!

I use CC on the freeways mostly, so I should be good.

I was on a back road and went to pass someone and it was lightning fast from 60-100. Scared me a bit!
