...and loving it. Hadn't posted pics yet, so here they are. Steel grey with blue/black interior. Located in Orlando.

My only gripes are:
- no front bumper plugs included - plan to order from Ron or http://www.geocities.com/esklut/BumperPlugsNew3.html

- water (condensation?) in the left side blinker cover

- thick, greasy goop coming out of the front and back corners of the door panel, builds up over a week or so

- speed of wipers at medium is too fast

- cheesy ass plastic lighter plug - going to replace with a stainless one I saw somewhere

- head unit controls / display - sorry, it looks "clean", but the info provided sucks (hated the head unit in my 328ci too )

- stereo sound quality - wasn't expecting much, meets my expectations

- gas gauge!!! (ugh!)

That sounds like a lot, but nothing I loose sleep over. The car just keeps getting better.

I plan on making the following changes, in addition to those mentioned above:

- Ron's pro clutch and clutch stop - the quote "feels like a truck clutch" rang true to me... too much throw

- Z8 spray nozzles - pure decadance! ;-)

Glad I found this list - you guys / gals are great!
