Hi all,
Finally got my name on a 2025 5BW that arrived today and I'll be picking it up in the next day or two! I've been on this hunt (or do you call it a goat rodeo?) since the middle of March and I just didn't want a black or white car. So the struggle was real and I ended up with Deep Space Metallic. Can't wait to have this baby in my hands! I test drove one in March and felt right at home in it from the first blip of the throttle. It really just feels like a slightly larger, more luxurious version of my modified 2003 Mitsu Evolution. I know - call me crazy but the Evo makes nearly 500 hp and weighs 900 lbs less so power to weight ratio is similar (not torque to weight though). But I was all about the BW driver experience/feel and this car just felt great all around (the BMW M2 I rented was horrible by contrast). BW 6-speed is great, steering feel is great. Its just the car for me!!
Anyways - its a manual, no CF, deep space, with PDR and sunroof. Oh, and the interior is sweet with the black and sky cool gray with carbon fiber seat backs. Its just beautiful.
If anybody wants to trade their tech bronze wheels for my black wheels, let me know. I'll throw in the difference in cost too of course. Or is that a dumb question because everybody loves tech bronze and won't part ways with them?
I'm in the South Bay Los Angeles area if any of you guys are around here. I have yet to see one on the streets.
