Smile 135i Newb

Whats up 1 addicts? I just ordered my alpine white 135i yesterday. It feels like the worst part about this car is the wait. Should be getting mine around the end of May. Anyways, Im from Westchester, NY and this is my 4th car with forced induction, although it is my first BMW. Looking forward to some bear mountain and LI meets this summer.

Thanks guys. I just ordered the base model. Alpine white exterior with the black leatherette. No need for all the other options as I had them in my last car and hardly ever used them.

Question as far as the Dinan sortware goes. If you have it done does it void the manufacturers warranty on the powertrain? Also can the software be removed without the dealer knowing that it was ever installed?

I guess I have some research to do on my break. No idea what the difference is and I dont want to jack chris's thread.

Dinan is covered under warranty. I ordered my car from world wide cars of spring valley and they do it on site at the dealership.
cant beat that!
