I do not know how or why but this looks smaller and to me 10* better than the M4. Especially that rear quarter panel shot. Maybe something with the lines? At any rate what a great looking car here, congrats.

I thought 'agent's(especially secret ones) are supposed to be low key. . . not get noticed by EVERYONE EVERYWHERE you may go!

White with black accents never loses its sexiness!

Looks good.

Nice looking car. Does not need lowered, which would spoil it.

Personally I'm fed up with white cars though. Think the same car in Estoril Blue would be off the chart.

This. I understand that cars in Australia are inherently more expensive but why waste money on all those performance parts on a 428

Not a fan of that combo, I guess "I'm not at all flashy" kind of a guy.

Well, to him, it is obviously not a waste. The 428i is still a great performer, maybe not as quick as the 435i but still a great car. Everyone has a preference as far as cosmetics of a car.

I personally think it looks great. The suspension sits perfect to me. The white with black accents look stunning. Nice job!

M-performance parts really make the car stand out in an aggressive way. Enjoy it!

Surprisingly the M performance parts aren't costly at all!
You just need to know where to source the parts from for a meager sum.
I have very good contacts !!

car looks sick.

I just wish the splitters were more aggresive looking, like on the e90/e92, or even the f30

edit:nvm, just realized that thats paint

Thanks so much ! I did think of painting the roof black but after nearly 1 week of 40+ degrees C in a few cities in Australia I decided not to.
I had my roof professionally CF wrapped and the drip mouldings and shark fin painted gloss black. $300 US. If I change my mind later I can just peel it off
