Thanks for the positive comments guys. I believe the wing mirrors colour are to do with the contrasting roof as remember looking this up when putting the specification together. Didn't have to specify it separately.

The BMW dealers do make those videos as I am in the process of buying a used 35i and the salesman did a similar video which is a nice touch :thumbsup:

Indeed. I had a couple done when I was looking at the M4, but to go outside specially and do a couple just after the car has arrived (without being prompted) in the wet was a nice touch. I'm trying to cut myself down to only watching 5 times a day now :D

Btw. Do I manage the first 15 plate pictures on the forum ? Lol.

It's a VO or Pure Traction thing (it's unclear in the literature I've read which)

Both go hand in hand but the silver mirrors would look rather odd, even more so than usual on this colour combination. However considering it's only the 35is that has the different coloured mirrors I would assume it's a VO thing otherwise they'd possibly have to add them to the other VO E89s in smaller engine variants if it was due to the pure traction interior.

I love it :thumbsup: owned mines a year past Sunday there and it still fills me with excitement and I smile from ear to ear every time I drive it.

Got my new 35is in November, but as I'm one of those sad people who only use their Z in the summer months 8) it will stay in the garage tucked up for a few more weeks yet, I did manage a couple of short runs when I first got it, so I've had it 3 months and its done 150 miles, but the waiting to start using it with the roof down is killing me just the same.
