FPG BY-TOR

I’ve been driving my M2 for a few days now, and I must say, it has exceeded my expectations. The car offers a fantastic experience, though I believe the Harman Kardon sound system could use some improvement, which I plan to address next spring. The manual gearbox is a particular highlight, offering a tactile and satisfying feel. While I have a list of upgrades in mind, I’m holding off for potential Black Friday deals. As a dedicated fan of the band Rush, I’ve named the car “BY-TOR” in homage.

Dang, those frozen colors show off the front cheeks (the bump out behind the front wheel up to the mirrors) that I sometimes forgot are there. And the hips really pop.

Great to hear you are enjoying the car. Just wait until you are passed break in and you can go full send. These really are incredible cars and I'm grateful I was able to get one.

I think FPG and Skyscraper enhance the box flares about the best I have seen.

Your care looks so good. I love the silver wheels. Have you considered using bimmercode to remove ASD? I hear it makes a huge difference because it uses resources to make the fake engine noise. When my M2 comes in I’m going to try that.

Thank you. Yes I will code out ASD when I return to the states in December.
