'18 F22 230i Sunset Orange

Picked up my new 230i from the dealership a couple of days ago. Life is good!
Colors are Sunset Orange over Cognac. Pretty unusual combo I believe but it turned out really good, I love it. As for options I picked everything except sunroof, lumbar support and additional 12V outlet.
It's been rain/snow/filthy weather since I picked it up so I only have the pics I took at the dealership for now.

Congrats on your new car OveN,

I have a 2018 230i Xdrive in sunset orange on order and am hoping you can provide some details on your car.
- there are no badges on your car (did you remove them?) so I can't tell if it is an xdrive or RWD model.
- can you post a picture of the rims/brakes? I'm interested to see the m-brakes on the 230
- I wasn't sure if the M front facia would have the fog lights but based on your picture it appears that they are included. Did you have to order them or were they standard?

Thanks!
-I deleted all exterior badges from factory. This is an available option (at least in Norway). The car is RWD. 230i is not sold with xDrive in Norway for reasons I don't know nor understand..
-Don't have any pics on hand right now and will be travelling for the next few days. I have the Jet Black 719 for winter and bicolor 719 for summer.
Below is an official BMW picture of Jet Black 719 with M-brakes.
-In Norway the fog lights comes standard and not possible to remove/delete from factory. Apparently the fogs are deleted on cars sold in certain areas of the world (warmer climate) due to an additional cooler that takes the space of left or right fog light. There is a separate thread on this topic on here.

Hilsen fra U.S.A.!

Great photo of the cognac interior! First I've seen with the Sunset Orange exterior.

That Cognac interior reminds me of our Ekornes chair! Wonder if I could "sell" that combination to my "co-driver" ?
