Yes, I ordered it with the Black Grille, Steel pedals, Diffuser, MPE and LSD. The dealer had to install the diffuser, MPE and LSD.

While I had aluminum trim in my MINI Cooper S and really liked it, I don't care for any of the aluminum trim options available in the BMW. The M Performance CF and Alcantara is nice but expensive and a bit "boy racer" in my mind.

Too each their own of course, just asking.

It's funny you mention the M-performance interior. I'm not really a fan of that upgrade either, but I alot of people seem to like it so, to each his/her own. I don't mind the CF on the dash, I just don't like that Alcantara section, with the M performance lettering. I saw a picture of a M2 with this upgrade and thought they made it worse, and should have left it alone.

I wouldn't get wood trim either, but not because i hate it, just not on this type of car. I had it on my E36 M3, which was the luxury model, and wanted the interior of the regular m3.

To the OP, congrats and nice looking car.

Great looking car.

Gray was going to be our original color choice, but decided to go w/ the Estoril Blue (as it was exclusive to the M240i). The car looks great in any color.

Happy motoring.

Yeah, it was between Estoril Blue and MG for me too. Really like the EB as well.
