hey Gary I just got my car on Wednesday!!! Caught them while it came off the truck so she isn't even washed yet.
Nice mods so far. I'm still not 100% sure on how I want to approach this car. Will be eager to see some of your changes.

Alpine white
Carbon leather interior trim
Extended Fox Red Leather
Premium Package
Technology Package
Competition Package
Cold Weather Package
M-DCT Transmission
Enhanced Premium Audio
Smartphone integration
iPod and USB adaptor
Power rear sunshade
Rear park distance control
BMW assist
Anti-theft alarm
I caught the car litterally coming off the truck so I asked them to just PDI it and give it to me without a wash or anything. I've been SUPER busy with work so I haven't even been able to clean it up. Will do this afternoon and hopefully have some decent pics posted today.
So far I'm loving the car. 1,200 miles is going to be really difficult. It's more than just the power for me, it's the handling and just the way it drives.
Looks like you're having fun with yours too Gary!!!! I'm jealous yours is so damn clean!

Hey Gary, I heard retrofitting the alarm in the more recent M3's was very difficult. You might want to look into the RemoteKey+ module from EAS instead. It's not an alarm but it will give you the beeping plus a ton of other cool features. I'm planning on isntalling it just for some of the other things.
