1 - Congrats on the beautiful car. Im jealous. Need some interior pics.

2 - You cant go Chevere style on H&R's. Just do it right the first time and get KW's ASAP. I was one of the people who wasted money on H&R's with the plans of KW's.

3 - Get a smaller pic for the Signature.
1. How much am I looking at spending on the KW's?
2. How is the ride as for as long term? I have a 37 mile commute to work everyday. That is each way.
3. Where is a good source to buy them? or the H&R's?
4. I will change my sig later and post up some interior pics.

ANSWERS
1. KW Variant 3 coilover for the 7 series should run you between $2,500 - $2,900
2. I think the KW's on the softest setting is perfect for me. In stock form, the 7 series is tooo soft for my comfort level. The KW's increase the firmness a tad, and make it handle like its on rails.
3. Try to buy them from Derrick at D2 Autosport. Let him know Sam from Sleek Motoring in Northern California sent you.
4. Hurry up with the interior pics and the modding.

As for options. It has the everything but the sports package reclining rear seats and self leveling rear suspenstion and the heads up display. My favorite feature is the butt massager. That was nice on the long ride home from picking the car up. The i drive is a lot different than in my 5 series. This is a bit slower. I dont really like the navi either but it may be better if i can figure out how to use voice command.

I hate the fake butt massager feature and I never used the voice command. Its easier just to do everything manually. The butt massager feels like it just slowly lifts the butt cheeks side to side.

When you going to order all your aftermarket stuff? What have you decided on so far?

I am still trying to decide which wheels I want. Thinking of going back to Klass KF100's but in 22's, or 360 Forged spec multi or mesh 10, or the wheels that Chevere has but not want to steal his thunder. I would like the KW's but with this economy I am not sure I can swing 3k for springs so it may be H&R's to start. I want a trunk spoiler but I need options. angel eyes are on my list. Of coarse I will be doing my audio install. and sueding my headliner.
