Crown Spk Wheels
Convenience Pkg

Welcome and it looks good to me! Does the R56 come with limited slip, I didn't see that listed?

My MA got with me a few weeks ago and told me my order would be an '08. Because of the changes in the packages and the pricing we revised the order. I only accepted packages if I specifically wanted every item in the package, if not they went a la carte. I ended up with a MSRP increase of $250 over my original order. By making the full deposit in August, I got the production slot that I wanted and also got to tweak my order. That being said, Now I am excited!
