Don't be. We do need the plate on front, in CA at least. And in the city they'll definitely ticket you. Outside the city as well, if the cop is so inclined.

Really like the sunset orange and how it plays in the light.

Was deciding between this or Estoril Blue. But now that I've seen it in real life I have no regrets. Love the color and it suits the car. Even people who only like black cars told me it looks fantastic.

Thats pretty funny, I was torn between EB and SO as well. I have seen EB in person and it looks pretty sharp but yeah I agree.. this SO looks very nice. I can't wait to order!

I just saw one "in the flesh" and those are good/realistic shots of the color. It looks great...a bit more "tomato" than "orange", and still attention-grabbing. I saw it with a black interior here, but I can see the Oyster in yours and that is also my preference. Nicely done!

Looks great Steve. I'm glad I went for the same combo. Can't wait for mine to arrive.

Hello Steven, congrats on your new car!

Could you please let me know if your headlight version has de DRL line above the halos as well? Or only the circle halos turn on when you turn DRL's or headlights on?

Thanks in advance

I chose Msport for my Estoril/oyster color which I love as much as the SO especially with the orbit grey rims .We also don't require a front plate in our state of Delaware. I have a black frame on the front and a black plate with the BMW logo on it.
