Hello , I'm new around here

Hello,
I just wanted to take the opportunity to introduce myself. Well after 2 years it was time to sell my 135i. It was a great car and I had a great time modding it to get it to a place where I was happy with it. It actually got car of the month on bimmerpost , which was a nice surprise.
I picked up my 428i Msport on Friday and so far love it in every way. The styling, tech and build quality are superior to my last car and I see a lot of modding potential in this car.
Anyways I used to frequent 1er board quite regularly and will be doing so with this one.
I will post some pics of my old car and current one

Heads-Up display
Msport
Msport Brakes
Adaptive ///M Suspension (i think thats what its called)
Professional Nav (not sure if standard)
Sunroof
Xenon (pretty sure standard)
Harmon sound (not sure if standard)
Digital Radio (not sure if standard)
extended connectivity
5 year service package
There may be more i missed but all i can think of.

I wasn't fussed on Adaptive Headlights, Heated seats or the Automatic Cruise control option (hardly used it on my 135i).

Nice ride! Your first mod should be the BMS stg 1, after you've run the car in. Best $300 you'll spend on the car.

Gives you adjustable dampeners and therefore enables adjustment in the suspension and there is adjustment in the drivetrain delivery. Also makes the car 10mm lower.

Congrats on the new car. Good call on the Adaptive M running gear, it's well worth it IMO.

They do look sweet against EBII. I want to put them on my sapphire black but I've got to stay focused and do interior first, starting with CF interior kit and gear shift surround.
