2017 M240i xDrive Mineral White Build

Picked up my 2017 M240i (auto) that was a super deal with the 18's coming out. I decided to put some money into the car from the start

Dinan Elite
Dinan Mid Pipe

Front BMW Splitter - Painted to match. I left the very bottom lip black.
Rear BMW Carbon Spoiler

Thoughts - Stock this car needs nothing. But I wanted to make it a bit my own.

Dinan tune and pipe is an awesome upgrade. The additional power suffers a bit of turbo lag if you just stomp on the pedal. This can either be really fun or a bit late to the party. But more power is always welcome. The automatic is a must for me as I use this car for stop and go duties sitting in Boston traffic. I've done manual in the past. The auto is fast and precise enough for me.

The splitter and spoiler is just to highlight the M on the back. So far this thing is a hoot to drive and understated enough for a guy not trying to look fast and furious to squirt through traffic like a F1 driver.

Did you lease or or buy it? Curious as to the deal you received. I also just picked up a 2017.

White car driver -

http://www.foxbusiness.com/features/...ays-about.html

I like white. Here is my Harley... I had a white X5 in the past and a white 04 330xi.

The best deal is to purchase. Not sure on the lease.

Talking 2018 M240xi on the way....

I've not seen to many M240i posts on the site so I thought I'd add one...... I ordered my M240xi 11/4.... due mid January if im lucky. I went with the x drive as I hope this will offset any advantage the limited slip differential has in the M2..

I think I paid to much. $24,684 on a 24mo lease 15k mi/yr. $30.6K residual.
