It got delivered to dealer yesterday and I was invited down to have a look (it was actually being reversed off the transpoter as I drove into the delaer), looks absolutely stunning inside and out.

Collecting on Tuesday...can't wait.

Personally i feel it's well worth it as is invaluable when parking to be able to see all round the car. I often forget after a spirited drive just how big the car is.
I only have the reverse camera but really wish I had surround view

Me too, coming from a E92 M3 it took me quite a while to judge the size.

Wife still managed to smack the garage wall despite having the reverse camera though...

Experiencing some 343M envy looking at that pic! Could always relegate the 345's to winter duty?

They are a fantastic looking wheel, the dish in real life looks superb pics (even though they look good in them) don't do them justice.

They are an expensive option at over £2,000, however I felt they (along with the sun protection glass) really set the car off and were therefore a must for me.

I was originally considering black ones and the dealer offered to powder coat them for me for £100 a corner, which I very nearly went with. However, I am so glad I didn't, they are absolutely stunning.

Looks stunning. Is the interior Silverstone?

Yes it is, with piano black trim...it looks awesome.

The downside is I'll have to make sure I have a constant supply of leather cleaner and conditioner to carry round with me wink
