The mirrors do actually add a small finishing touch to the overall look of the car and are not "over the top". I would definitely keep them as they are.
I was fascinated by the photo of the rev counter where the markings are on a raised section. I went out and checked my own car only to realise its exactly the same!
Hmm I'm still not 100% sold on the looks over the 35i especially if that had 296 19" wheels too. But the extra performance, std DCT etc. makes it a no brainer if you were otherwise going to order a 35i with DCT, which you were. Beige interior looks great too.
K, you don't have switches for the heated seats???, (at least not where mine are..on each end where the roof controls are) Heated steering wheel also? Y/N
