Congrats! I'm looking forward to seeing more pics. I've not seen the ceramic controls and wonder how they look.

Sounds as though you got a good deal. Would you be willing to share the name of your dealer?

Absolutely!!
Dave Walter BMW in Akron Ohio. I deal w Shujaat Siddiqui (General manager) directly. If not him ask for Eric (specify "older Eric"; as there are two of them there and I don't remember his last name). I have nothing but good things to say about them. Always willing to go the extra mile ( sometimes literally). Even after we moved to PA from OH, I make the trek out there for all my needs/wants.
(Mention my name (Providence), it may get you some favors)
Good luck.

chrisny · 05-28-2014, 09:23 AM

congrats! the 469m's will look great with DG

stewy604 · 05-28-2014, 09:47 AM

Looks great man...nice addition with the 469 wheels, I love mine!

Socal2025 · 05-28-2014, 09:56 AM

It's amazing how a simple wheel replacement changes the entire car look. Congrats!

I know, right?

midlifecrisis · 05-28-2014, 07:31 PM

Congrats, you're going to love it! I've had my 35d for about 3 weeks and I think the drivetrain is perfectly matched for a vehicle of this type - and the highway mileage is almost unbelievable.

providence · 05-28-2014, 08:11 PM

delivery complete!! I cant stop staring at this damn thing!!!

opasha · 05-28-2014, 08:33 PM

Haha, I know exactly how you feel! Very nice pic, man!

r33_RGSport · 05-28-2014, 09:20 PM

Congrats, I have mine for 6 months already and I still cant stop staring at it.

midlifecrisis · 05-29-2014, 06:19 PM

I picked it up at the Performance Center and the indicated MPG when I got home to NJ was over 34! ...and that included some local driving and frequent downshifts to keep the engine speed moving around during break-in. The on-board computer might be a little off, so I plan to confirm it by manual calculation on my next trip, which may not be for a while.
