I totally hear where you're coming from. I just happen to think form should equal function in every possible way with a car in this league. Why compromise when there are alternatives at $60k+ that drive just as well or better and look better doing it? My cliché response would be, "I'd rather just get a P-car."

I can think of worse fates! ;-)

IND has produced and will sell a grill with a strip of paint down the center, making it appeared split. It's the first thing I'm doing when I get the car.

Yuk, but that was the 60's look. Lots of chrome, fins and ugly grills ala the Edsel.

I have explored the possibility of putting Eldorado fins on my M240i, and it seems quite feasible.
