Alan,

No pics yet. Hope to wash it and do some at the w/e.

IMO the spoiler is a must. Think its a con that BMW sell you a sport package and then charge extra for the spoiler, but hey whats another 130 quid!

Not sure about retro fitting, but don't see why not

You would be able to say goodbye to the rx8 i'm sure.

Ok thank you all for the info. I'll probably start the leasing process...anyway i was just wondering does te dynamic drive worth the extra almost 2000E?!? I think this car would be a kiler on the road...at least on long journeys and while overtaking with a little remapping not even the 545i could keep up...at least theat's my opinion. The rx-8 would have no chance even at starts from standstill. I expect the huge torque would compensate in the 80-120 and such times...

IMHO, particularly in the sport version, the car's handling is so firm that you can hardly feel any rolling even without DD ...

I love DD and think it's worth the extra money.
