[QUOTE=bimmerfile;19153107]I have them as well, but in Canada and northern states, they are really only 3 season mats.
So, for the winter, I replaced them with the new 2016 2-Series DigitalFit mats from WeatherTech.
They fit great and do the job better than any other floor mat for snowy, salty and muddy shoes and boots - and look pretty good as well.
Pricey, but worth it.
I agree of course and I did buy them for my wife's new Subaru but the dealer had them installed before I went to see the car and didn't have the heart to tell them to pull the mats out?

I like the WeatherTech as well. Got them for my wife's RAV4 and the fit and the way they work is fantastic.

Looking at the OP's Mineral Gray m235i gets me anxious again. My guy just landed at the Port of Charleston and will be off loaded today. Then for the Port Install items, that should take about a week, then off to Spartanburg for PCD in March. Long wait, but then again following the Galveston Highway cross the Atlantic, actually from Bremerhaven, has been interesting. It took much longer than it has for my previous two Mini Coopers. About twice as long. Anyway, it's on USA soil now, so I can breath a little easier now. No storms, no ice bergs, just smooth sailing.

OP: Nice car, looks a lot like mine, options are different, but that look is great.

How did you get those wheels with a M235i? Did you order it that way? Didn't know dealer allowed that

Excellent Pictures

Those are some of the best photos I've seen of Mineral Grey, it often looks pale and washed-out in pictures. Well taken too.

I have a Mineral Grey M235i hopefully arriving in March. I had a real quandary over colour: I had "decided" that I would have Estoril Blue before I actually drove the coupe (I had driven the soft-top). I then managed to get a coupe for a 48 hour test drive, intending to place the order if the test drive was OK.

The test car turned up in MG. My current 330d is grey, I wanted a change and fancied the EB. But as soon as I saw it... it looked so cool in MG. I love the way it blends with the wheels and mirrors and complements the black grilles, trims etc. I'm very happy for my car to be 'low profile' so I just fell for it.

I know I love it 'cos I drove one for two days, but then I see pics on the web and wonder about EB after all. So thanks for the photos, nice reminder.
