    Car is sick as hell though. Nice work.

          It seems as though all the video clips of the car you shot where taken when the motor was still cold, hence why its very loud. Is there a vid of that exhaust/DP once the motor is warmed up?

          Not to knock you but that sounds like my 135i with performance exhaust and stock DP/midpipe when cold. Not much different.

            Wow, what a car. Big ups for going with AST 5200s, great suspension.

            This car is going to be stupid fun, but I can't help but think I'd rather have driven it stock first, then do the mods one at a time.

              it all looks great, but I have to wonder if that intercooler is really better than stock.

                  Depends on Rank and if your collect cola for overseas or flight pay and HDP or tax free every month like I do.

                  It can be done, might have to scrimp every now and then but being frugal isn't too tough.

                        the work isn't being done at the dealer, been doing it at home, and at my buddies bodyshop.

                        like posted here^ the car is a black car, with a wrap.

                        owner is an officer in the Army, special Forces and is always gone on different "missions"
                        said he has been saving for quite some time.

                        the car still only has about 40 miles on it, so I really haven't been able to "test" it out, I drove a few of them in the schooling I did in Leipzig, awesome!

                          not knocking anything. it is what it is, no cats, and no rear muffler. Its a shit ton louder than stock, and the mid pipes are in the works

                          the vids of the sound are for the owner, he hasn't seen the car since he took delivery of it, and I have been trying to keep him updated.

                          I will try to get a vid of it warmed up and a little of the blow off valve whistle- I just don't like it idling too much in my yard- neighbors already love me.

                              incredible build, but I would have wanted to enjoy the car in its stock form for a little while at least to get to know the car.

                              It must be nice to have that kind of money to throw at a brand new car.

                                Damn, I wish I could buy a brand new 1M and dump a shit load of awesomeness in it. Is the guy wanting to do anything anything else to the car or is this it?
