Completely disagree on the wheels. These pictures make me extremely happy that I stayed with the 18s.

Agreed, I've seen the 18s several times in the flesh and they're just gorgeous. Also, I prefer the brakes to fill the wheels nicely over huge wheels that make the brakes look tiny.

I have to say I agree with some here, the 19"s really fill the wheel well better, plus, I really like the depth they have when you look at the 19"s from the 3/4 view, but I think the 18"s look better from the side view. That being said, when I place my order in about exactly a year, I think it will be for the 18"s when you factor in the terribly maintained roads here in PA and the added expense of 19" tires.

Looks awesome! Congrats!

Do you have pics of the black leather seats? We don't have any M-sports in the local Vancouver showrooms right now with the black leather seats, but my salesperson tells me it's the same seats as a Sport except the red stitching is now blue in the M-Sports... is that true? He didn't seem very sure... but I'm assuming since neither of us (Canada and USA) don't get the alcantara seats, then the black leather should be the same...

Also, were you able to opt for with or without foglights in your front kit for the M-Sport?

Hoping to place an order for one soon. ;O)

Thanks!

Sadly there is no blue stitching on the leather....it would have been really nice. For the US cars there are no fog lights on the M Sport. Instead it has extra cooling, they say americans spend more time on the race track. Not sure thats true. I am not currently with the car for another 7 weeks so I cannot post anymore pics..sorry.
