Something's wrong with your car, it seems to be missing a pedal

All joking aside, AW looks hands down the best with all the MPerf bits, congrats!

127000 USD??!! wow... I'm not sure I could afford a car in Taiwan. Almost double in price. In the US or Canada you are in 911 territory. Ouch.

After everything is installed, will look like the AW I took some photos before...
From Bimmerpost Member's recommendation decided to install the FCT charge pipe once I get it next week...

Looks really good. I think the white is the only color those stickers would look good on.

in fact, I'm so bored got many accessories for the M2 before I pick it up... damn dealer takes too long and since Taiwan rains a lot and M Performance umbrella takes forever to ship, got a portable one first. Also grabbed M Performance keychain, wallet, shoes, and bags and other imitation M stuffs. Damn I'm bored single and must grab a pair of sunglasses first...

LOL, my boss is a male and didn't give me a bonus for the last 16 yrs I've worked for him. No biggie, I'll get it back in the long run... In the meantime, taking my break for a few years with pay so I can find a nice GF...

Just got bored ordered FTP Charge pipe today in special anodized blue inside, black outside.
Friend gave me a Bluethooth dongle for my M2 also so I can start using M Performance Drive Analyser app... before deciding if I need gauges

Performance most likely decided the the following first... still waiting for my USA friend to reply...

Downpipe
Dunno if I need catless or catted downpipe yet,
Catless downpipe if no CEL code since cheaper and more HP than catted downpipe,
