It's official, I went to Knauz Auto Park in Lake Bluff today and ordered my '06 MCS Chili red with blk roof, black bonnet stripes, Premium, Cold Weather, LSD, DSC, anthracite dash, Space grey cloth, HK upgrade, fog lights.

I'm still thinking about Xenon headlights... not sure if i need it since i live in Chicago and its always well lit....


Its supposed to get built on the 37th week, so hopefully I'll get her in October sometime! Thanks to everyone who posted in the threads I've put up so far, you've all given me a lot of great advice...


Now i just have to find another garage spot for my 1976 BMW 2002....

Congrats, TrippleBeem! Love your specs! I encourage you to order the Xenons because you will suddenly crave taking roadtrips, and when you go to The Tail Of The Dragon in North Carolina/Tennessee with all of us every May, you will want those Xenons in the forested areas!

**Hint, hint!**

Hey Ryan-

You should consider the rear fog lamp. It is a feature not found on many cars, looks better than the plastic blank if you don't order the lamp and it to completes the row of toggle switches. Athough they are expensive I'm also a big fan of the Xenons.

 

GET THE XENONS!!!

would have never ordered them myself, but bought the car off the lot and it happened to have them ... what a difference from standard halogens

 

The xenons even look good when they are off.

 

If you go with Xenon, it is better to have the Sport pkg. Since the Sport pkg include Xenon, DSC, fog, and Heavy 17" run flat. And your config already have DSC and fog, there is not much difference between adding those individually and the Sport pkg. I think it is always to have better more light than less light, also most Chicago suburb area wasn't well lighted.

 

Congrats! And Yes - get the Xenons....you have just about everything else - why not.... They are pretty cool looking...

Francisk, thanks for the GOOD ADVICE! I've decided to get the sport package, and opt for the 500 dollar Web spoke wheels, definitly worth it! They appear to be 2 piece wheels, and they look oh so good! Good call!
