Gorgeous car. Like Julie said, I think SG rides the best line between capturing the lines of the car and not being ostentatious. I might be biased though .

...Man the front ends on these are slopped together, just spent 30-45min aligning the fenders, hood, bumper. Can't really see it in the pics but BMW should be ashamed a 70K+ car arrives with misaligned panels like this.

Welp out to piddle with it some more. I'll post up some additional pics in a day or two.
Sorry to hear about the front end, but at least they got the right tranny in there! At least you could fix those fenders yourself! A tranny replacement is a different animal!

Thanks Everyone - I'm sorry for the delays in responding, busy couple of days at work. I'll get some pics up tomorrow/Sunday.

These *are* very special cars aren't they? With all my Audi background you just can't compare with the 335s as the M3 is just so different, unbelievably better in every way. Hard to explain, heck even I never saw the justification in the M models... I do now. Love it.

I'll post up more, front was an easy fix. Found a small dimple above the tow hook I'm going to see if BMW will help on(can see it in the pic slightly) but everything else is perfect. Have a couple funny stories from PCD as well... will update. Thanks everyone for the help and support... feel like I'm at peace again in the car world =)

Yeah, I noted the dimple even before you pointed it out. Overall, the paint on mine is not as smooth as I would have expected, either.
