Got 1t!
I'll post more pictures when the weather improves. But here it is!
Its already kind of dirty, I could have waited till Saturday to take it home.... Well no, I couldn't wait till Saturday to take it home. But between having to break it in and the cold, snowy weather we've been having here, I wasn't able to have too much fun with it since it went from the BMW Calgary garage to my garage.

Lost your team but got your car. I'd say it was a good week.
Congrats, it looks amazing. More pics please. Did you get the engraving?

Haha thanks for all the comments guys! I'll be sure to post some more pics once I can snap some, I tried to take a couple more this evening but the garage lighting wasn't great so I'll wait a bit.
And yes, its helping me forget the woes of last night's devastating loss

Black leatherette with Gray Poplar trim. M sport Pkg, and I had them install the aluminum Performance pedals as well (got them to throw them in during the PDI).

This car makes me love blue cars. I've never been a fan of blue, but it looks soooooooo good on the 1er. This car, exaclty as you have it, is a future classic.

Thanks for all the great comments guys! Yeah I'm in love with this color, it just suits the car so well I think. In the pickup bay there was an Interlagos blue M3 sitting behind my car and the colors were actually really close, its hard to get a real sense of the Le Mans blue in the pictures, but its just so rich, its a beauty.
raisemyrent> The pedal caps, I just asked them to include the install on the PDI and sort of treat it as something in lieu of floormats or part of the discount. Bizall> I like the 'ette, my last 2 cars had leather and I always made sure that I treated the leather on a regular basis, but eventually it does crease, and thats my only issue with it. Even in a certified preowned E46 M3 I was lookin at in the showroom you could see the lines just from wear and creasing. I think about 70% of people would think its leather unless you tell them, but if you examine the grain closely, you can tell its synthetic. But the texture is still quite nice, and you know that in 5 years its going to look exatly how it looks now. I see you got the leatherette too, good choice, I would probably get the leather if I wanted the Lemon (almost got it...) or Coral interior (but no way I'd get it with a blue exterior). mtla4> Yeah, everyone was right, the gray poplar, it photos really brown. But its actually quite gray, and on cloudy overcast days (which is all I've seen my car in thus far), the low light makes it look just black. I like it, I like both the GP and alum, and I originally ordered the glacier aliminum but switched so I could get the car earlier, and I'm pretty comfortable with what I ended up getting.
