If all that black s**t is stickers you can whip them off and it’ll look decent - wheels, spoiler and quad tips are nice IMO

Must be something wrong with me then.... I quite like it. And I've never been a fan of the E89 :?

Proof that just because someone sells it, doesn't make it ok to stick it on your car.... :sick2:

Little bit too 'fast'n'furious' for my tastes.

The silver trim around the lights is probably the worst mod I've EVER seen. :thumbsdown:

If all the embellishments are easy to remove it would make a decent low mileage car. I like the black roof and the carbon mirrors. No iDrive or Sat Nav will also effect the value but if you could get it at the right price it would be worth considering.
