to 5seies.net. A full LED interior is a great first mod. I've got one thanks to member brabusw209amg (John) who sells every lighting upgrade you can think of. It really brightens/transforms the look of the interior and doesn't cost much. To me if you are really looking to spiff up the car's look, M Tech body kit and a set of killer wheels will have a huge impact.

They don't have them!!

The car will restrict the amount of revs you can give it when cold. This is displayed on the rpm counter around the right hand side edge (uk) and on a cold Uk day will start just above 4k on my Diesel. Once she is warmed it dropps bit by bit till you can go to the limiter!

I wondered how long it would take someone to bring up the HPFP...I mean here's a guy all excited about his new car and the first words you have for him are "watch out for this big problem" :thumbsdown: I swear...if it's a post involving the words 535i...someone is gonna throw the words HPFP out there right behind it...enough already

To the OP...congrats on your new car...you are gonna love it! Mine has 35K miles, and never had any hpfp issues at all and yours probably won't either
