2) US models will be dinged with a bright orange side marker. why why why..
3) Brakes should have been 6 pistons instead of 4's in the front.. Still nice. think it would look sweet with yellow brakes..
That paint is noice..
1) The N20 will likely remain roughly the same for the next three plus years, but the N55 will likely get a bump in power soon. Of course if you plan on going aftermarket, who cares?
2) Aftermarket painted blanks will be relatively cheap soon
3) Why? I have six piston fronts on our 135i that don't feel any better than my old 1 piston sliders. I'll settle for functional four pistons over six pistons done for style.
