And an admission - I got mine in 2 weeks or so after deal sealed in October '21 - was already on its way to dealer. So I "settled" with specs as they were coming, sight unseen; but ZERO regrets

Picked up my Thundernight 230i M Sport Shadowline with 791M wheels last weekend. It was a gloomy evening so these pics are terrible
My first BMW and I'm smitten. It's currently getting a full front PPF and ceramic coating. I'll take some better pics and share once they're done.

Congratulations! The 230 (especially with M sport goodies) is such an underrated joy to drive. Yours is an identical spec to mine - caliper color and all. Good taste! I tinted mine with 20% and love the look.

I don't actually have any "pretty pictures" of mine, but here's a video of my car - my SA put up on his channel recently.
I ordered end of August, car was delivered mid-November.

The quad tips look so good, I may have been converted. What's your setup?

Edit: Looks like Milltek catback

In the picture that’s a custom axelback with some generic quads. Ended up switching to the Milltek catback later on because I was getting too much drone with a downpipe and no proper muffler.

Had her just over 12 months now (picked up June 2022 - so she's an ID7/MY22 car)

Recent pics after she went in for PPF on new carbon exterior parts. Car was fully PPF'd from new, so made sense to get new bits protected as well. Still looks mega after 12 months!

Thundernight sure does look amazing!
