Thanks !

I'm quite happy with the entire 'package'. It's great to see that the previous owner of this car was also a car enthousiast. The car really looks like new. Not a scratch on it!

The body is complete stock, as well as the steering wheel. It has a factory installed M-sport package, which is available in Europe.
It roughle contains:
- M-bumpers and side skirts
- Carbon black exterior color (which is designed for the M-sport)
- Black roof liner
- M-sport suspension
- M-sport steering wheel (there it is!)
- Alu Cube interior
- Sport seats
- Shadow line trim (although mine has the optional High-gloss Shadow Line)
- 18 inch M135 wheels

True, but that was based on the silver E61 in the pictures with the 20" wheels, and I think that (now looking at that again), the car was slightly on an angle, towards the driver's side. It really looks (IMHO) like there aren't any tires!

That said, your black E61 really does look the business on 20s. It makes me want winter to end so that I can get my summer wheels/tires put on the car!
