I immediately swapped out the tail lights for the OEM LED ones and have since also retrofitted the CIC iDrive. I rarely have anyone in the back seat (or the passenger seat for that matter) so having a coupe suits me. I'm not really a fan of the arse end on the E90 but did consider getting one for a while there.

When you're shopping also be aware of the myriad of options these may/may not have come with. Things like folding mirrors, heated seats, comfort access, EDC, rear sun blind, sun roof, electronic compass, extended leather (and the various interior combinations that come with that), voice control etc. I was fortunate enough to find a great example that was nearly fully loaded. If you want to know what it was optioned with at the factory, use a VIN decoder like the one below. Pop in the last 7 digits of the VIN and you'll get a detailed report of what's in the car.
