Hi all, Finally I got my car in garage 4 days back.
It took about 20 days to clear RAM fix. Outside White looks good, looks like it can become dirty too quick and noticeable. Interior ivory with ambient light is stunning in night times, dark light or when there is no sun. When there is too much of sun, ivory is not that good, I think if I get some tint it will get better in sun as well.
I got 540xi and the driving experience is very nice, I love it. It is taking some time to setup every thing and I will post some updates. Here are some pics. I can not take outside as it is cold in mid west end now.Name:  03DB4CF1-0774-4239-B58D-1AB778196629.jpg

It can be done but it will cost a lot more than the ~$6xx they cost as an option on the build.

Sorry Archie, I didn't see this early.

PCD is a "shouldn't be missed opportunity" IMHO but is sadly only one day. It's a lot of fun for you and a guest. I won't get into as others have documented this experience ad nauseum. The factory tour after delivery is an eye opening experience if you never been on a modern production floor. The museum / Zentrum was also kool and free too.

I’m curious why you write B58 not 540 ?

Obv, G30 is the chassis code and B58 is the motor code.

B58(C) to be even more exact.

I should probably change my screen name too.

And what’s wrong with just saying 540?

Nothing. Just chose to be different and use the chassis and motor code.

My Honda S2000 is an AP1 F20C.

Made me look something up, guess I am smarter for it now.

Enjoy the car-Looks great

If I were you I would look into IGL leather coating (or Gyeon Leather Coating) to keep the seats looking great with a tiny bit of maintenance. The time to do it is before they get dirty.

Not sure where you are located but if you go on IGL's / Geyon's website you will find an installer- I don't think they sell this directly to the end user.

Thanks. The Clean Garage is 15 minutes from my house. I'll have to see if they sell Gyeon or IGL. LOVE our seats (massage & vented) and the Mocha looks amazing IMHO.
