I wonder how long it will take me to get used to the Pep Boys vent behind the front wheel on new BMWs.

Also, maybe I'm dense, but...

Horsepower increased to 335hp (35hp gain).
Sport Display now shows increased power figures (400 hp and 400 lb-ft) to reflect increased performance.
and...

The M Performance Rocker Panel Decals give the car a sportier look, even from the outside, providing a hint of the car's hidden performance.
ooh, you can see the rocker panel decals EVEN FROM THE OUTSIDE!

I'll guess close to $60K. The prior "is" and even older "ZHP" where not limited in numbers, why this one?

Yeah from what I can tell they plan to install those items at the port. It so, I think the price for this package will be quite astronomical since you're basically paying for parts and labor.

Not going to bother cleaning her until it stops raining nearly every day.

Next Friday will mark one year together.

I woke up Saturday morning to find frost on the roof (in NY). The thermometer (of questionable accuracy) on the garage is showing 30F.
I thought memorial day was supposed to be the unofficial start of summer.

I'm in the middle of my spring/summer detailing of the 1er now. I'll post a pic or two this weekend when it is all shined up.
