Ok so after some time trolling the site, and plenty of shopping around I am now the proud owner of a 2011 1LT Black on Black. I have been an avid "import driver" for many years wich is strange since I am from Detroit MI originally! My last few cars included a 2003 Nissan 350Z, and a 2006 Mitsubishi IX. Both had a fair amount of after market parts as I cant seem to leave ANYTHING stock!!! I was on the fence to get a 2011 BMW 3 series, but once I drove the Vette it was game over! I bought the 1LT with the intentions of doing "some small stuff" but we will see. The new rims are being inastalled as I type, (Black Z06 Style 18-9.5/19-10) the exhaust should be here today or tomorrow (Loudmouth II) the short throw shifter (MGW) is on back order, and Im pretty sure a kenwood Nav is in line next! Well after tint! Im trying to knock out all the "little stuff" now in hopes to leave it be. That never goes well once you get the bug! Lol!! I know "this thread is worthless without pics" so Ill put a few stock ones up as soon as I figure out how! (Got it now! That should be easier!) Ill post up new mod pics as I go, and thank the vendors. This site seems to be pretty sweet so far, and I look forward to mixing in. Thanks
