How did you get the M-tech kit on the car?

Do I want a spoiler ... I don't know... I wonder if in the UK it'll be a bit too much.

No this is my first beamer.. Im going from a acura integra type r to this !!! Finally haha
i waited 8 years for a new car. I want to get a coupe next, but probably not for a year or two...
If you were to spend 130 k would you get the porsche 911 turbo 07 or a gallardo if i can get for around same price??
i heard that the 911 is a perfect daily driver and is super fast... and the gallardo is nice with the design and the panty dropper.
They both AWD too..

The 335i has dual exhaust but not dual exhaust for the 535i? That is just wrong!

I was noticing that yesterday while driving behind one. But again the 535 is still an inline 6. What performance improvements does it offer in splitting the airflow?

none that i can tell. its just louder, just like the exhaust setup on a 545/550 vs 645/650.
seems more like a styling issue to me - coupes get exhausts on both sides. sedans don't (unless its an M)
