pm sent mate, steering wheel upgrade is stunning piece of gear. Clutch is very light on this car as well compared to the Libo.

$73,000 base price plus options (and you're silly if you don't at least get a few, I'd personally spend the 8k on the BMW Motorsport seats, and another few k on the CF bits and awesome steering wheel), plus your LCT which is about $5k on the base price of the car (33% of the GST exclusive portion of the price above $57,009), plus stamp duty, plus rego and dealer delivery.

In the spec that I'd want it, its almost 100k

Bit fuckin rich especially considering the Yanks pay 40k for the same base car.

$85K on roads with black metallic paint and satnav/bluetooth
Seats, bigger brake package and upgraded steering wheel are my options I am considering as well. No change from $100k I am afraid but fark it you only live once.

Dave - I highly suspect you will want one after you have driven it.

Absolutely awesome bit of gear. Luxury as expected from bmw, but fast, dynamic and a bucketload of fun.

Could not fault the car.

Do it!
