Nice ride!
Looks like it needs a bit of lowering or maybe it's the angle of the picture. Look forward to daylight pictures.

JDN - that's actually my garage

I put on the SSR's last night. I left my notes at home, but if my memory is correct the 124 rear's weighed 64.5lbs each and SSR rears weighed in at 56lbs. The 124 front were 61lbs and the SSR's were 54lbs! So a little lighter and hopefully nimbler.

In changing out the rims my 9 year old son kept asking, "Dad do you know what your doing"

Activated the Sirius this morning and that's awesome, the iDrive is great - don't understand the fuss...the daytime driving lights are on which I don't want - do you have to have dealer turn them off?

Was so excited to drive to the office this morning that I left the house without my briefcase, so I had to go back - just another 30mins in the car

Asked the dealer just the hand wash and not to do anything else, so I plan on Zaino this weekend, needless to say I am over the moon

Here is a pic from this morning and will post more later...

Cheers

Ran by the dealer at lunch and had the daytime running lights shut off.

Got alot of great comments on the rims

Now I just need to play with the iDrive
