I haven't been this pumped for a car...

Congrats on the new ride man!Tomorrow I fly towards the East Coast and begin driving a 2016 M4 home. I've not been this jazzed about a replacement car since my Supra in the early 2000s. The wife is poking fun at me, I''m having a hard time focusing on work, etc. Should be a nice upgrade from my 335 E92.
Nice! Will you Bootmod it before or after you get home?
I’m still not sure which direction I’ll go, MHD or BM3 or other. Funny you ask, I was exchanging email with Wedge even before pulling the trigger on this car, asking about a 93 map.
@Torgus - mulling that over right now, bought a set of VRSF downpipes earlier this morning. Just two words however - "mfgr's warranty". Still 18k miles left. I'm worried about leaving fingerprints behind.
@jyamona - yes DCT. I put 1k miles on getting it home, and absolutely dig it. As a hardcore manual guy from learning to drive on a 3speed stick in the early 70s through 6 years ago (E92 335 xdrive), the DCT makes me grin.

What’s the rush? How about just enjoy her as-is stock for a couple of months? Get used to her engine, transmission, brakes, handling dynamics, etc. And push her hard - any gremlins will probably make an appearance in the first six months for a warranty repair. Then having satisfied yourself that “she’s a keeper”, go ahead and buy that blonde wig and hire the cosmetic surgeon for her!
I find it difficult to leave any vehicle in a stock configuration, that wig and plastic surgery are, well, addictive... Downpipes will be a nice simple mod, add some grunt and change the exhaust note a bit.
