Proud to join your ranks
Modded F97 comp was totalled Sunday evening when a guy ran a red light on the local highway. I ordered this evening a F95 replacement in Tanzanite with Silverstone fully specced out. Glad to join your ranks and look forward to all your insight on mods. My first will be IND reflector delete, full 360 expel PPF, tint, Stealth hitch, MSS Springs, and another SuperSprint downpipe. Will share the build here as it progresses....

Cars are definitely repairable or replaceable, unlike our bodies.
My old F10 protected me as well.

Thank you all for the warm welcome. I previously thought the 5 series was too big, but after test driving a F95, I find it fits me well. Can't wait to take delivery of this F95 in a couple of months.

Thanks. So my full buld is a F95 comp in tanzanite and Silverstone with carbon interior trim and 818 rims. Every available option except the M driver's package (DME should be cracked by the time I head back to Europe where I'll need that). Supersprint high flow stainless 200 cell/inch cats downpipes ordered today. Stealth hitch ordered today. Front and rear reflector deletes, carbon roundels and free floating carbon wheel caps, 12/15 future classic spacers, and MSS springs ordered yesterday (thanks , Ben) . 360 xpel and ceramic tint installer are identified and on alert for vehicle arrival. Just got my production week from the dealer today. Week 5! So by mid February the fun should begin.(oh, and I recovered autotecknic CF paddle shifters from my totaled F97 ready for reinstall) Can't wait for February to get here.

Didn't know about PCD until I read a few posts here recently. Called my dealer back this week and said I wanted to do it. I fly down to the factory to pick her up on 5 March. Let the countdown begin!

Bought her outright, all mine! Will take her back with me overseas in a few years when I return to Italy (if nobody runs any more red lights, that is). Leasing complicates taking vehicles out of the country usually.

It was hella fast with high flow cats running an ethanol blend on a stage 2 BM3 tune and handled curves like nobody's business with those springs dropped an inch and 15mm spacers all around. She'll be missed, but this F95 should prove to be an even more comfortable and luxurious DD (B&W and massaging seats, drool) . I just hope I can make it as fast as the F97. That would be nirvana. MPG be damned.

Yeah, I almost went all black again, but it was just too dark and didn't show any contrast. The Silverstone just seemed to make the curves pop. I have a 2 year old, so I'm a little worried about keeping it clean, but we don't eat in the car. I'll also have the leather conditioned immediately. Hope it wears well. I too was thinking of all the colors that light Grey would act like a silver screen enhancing all the LED colors. The night drives on YT with that interior are spectacular. Speaking of you preference for purple, I'm in a 5 series rental right now, and I ran through all the colors 2 nights ago for my daughter. Purple was her favorite. On basketball orange, I think it looks hideous, but she was happy. Can't wait!
