I can't wait to get the car, but my experience is car people are not very keen on the new grilles, young / old / bmw owner / non bmw owner....but my point back at them is "point me toward a better family hauler with a manual" and they can't.

CT5V Blackwing is the only other option.
Or in my case point me towards a better coupe with the same combination of daily driver utility, performance and price range and that doesn't require me to have a mullet. [Mustang, Camaro]. I'm going to cars and coffee Saturday with it along with my SPY M3 friend and we'll see how the reception is. It will be interesting to see if people tell us how hideous they are to our face instead of from behind an anonymous keyboard.
