Good idea, thats my plan when mine arrives, get a weekend toy!!  You MUST get the performance grilles though, a must on an AW BMW.  Wheels look great - they suit the coupe so well, my 269s turned up today.

My car is due on June 1st.

How are you finding the RFT's?

Well I was convinced the first thing was to ditch the RFT's, Mrs M has them on her 320d touring which is a sh*t ride (Edit: the car not the Mrs), but I've got to say I'm surprised by how good they are, their Bridgestone Potenza's, easily live with them till they need changing (PS3's ??).

I was using the Active Cruise Control for the first time today, 40 miles in traffic without touching the Brake or throttle, you dont trust it to brake to start with, it really freaks you out  :laugh:

The straight 6 is superb, sounds great, doesn't feel like turbo at all, looking forward to opening it up. I'll have to see how far the £75.00!! to fill it up gets me.

The only thing I dont like is the big fugly wing mirrors, spoil the whole look of the car.

Just seen the grilles in the BMW Performance brochure, look nice but I think they have changed the front slightly in the face lift model, may need new shape grilles.
269's are  :happy2: not sure about the yellow brakes though.

Oli:
They do a performance black grille for the face lifted saloon, I already have it!  Im sure they do one for the coupe.  Oh and they don't do the performance brakes for the 3 litre cars!
