in_d_haus said:Nice car! love MGs. I can only speak from my experience. The P-car events up here have, maybe, 25 people turnout. They are constantly approaching us (BMW) to help fill out spots to rent the track.
This was not a CCA event or even a regional type of event. I know there are big national and regional events that get great turnouts but a local event? Maybe down there in Cali this is the norm but Seattle, we get about 100 cars.
Also people in the BMW group seem much nicer and more approachable than other Marques, the P-car guy even snub each other... and we won't even talk about the 'vette guys.
As I mentioned, this is my experience...
Way to go JP, rank on the plate surround to the general manager of the dealership...JPinTO said:...and removing the tacky plate surround would give it a very clean, classy look.

Well, I agree. The only thing positive that can be said about the plate surround is that they are easily removed. At least Cutter doesn't sticker up the car...but I do prefer the clean, practically badgeless look. I've removed the "330ci" badge from the rear of my CIC.in_d_haus said:

Sticker thread
I like my surround, it goes well with the chrome trim on the car. It also has a plexiglas cover over the plate, keeps it clean.
I've always thought people who debadge cars are trying to hide something.

AC Schnitzer, with the ACS Carbon Fiber rear diffuser. But from what I hear, they don't actually sound that great ( though they look cool as hell).JPinTO said:I love the exhaust! This car looks beautiful! Wow!
What kind of exhaust is it???
