Lol! I figured because of the first name thing. I live about 20 min from Life College, the big Chiro school here. I always mess with my Chiro and call him by his last name :-)

Having seen this in real life, I prefer the new one.

I like the 14, but there is one thing I like about the 13 more. During the day time, the 13 looks meaner and cleaner with the large halos. The 14 has small halos with an eyebrow which isn't nearly as pure a BMW brand statement.

Right on, you beat me to it! The new lights look better at night time, old lights look better on day time.

Actually, it is a comp... Look at the sticker in the window... It just has 343 rims instead of 601... I thought the same thing, but it is a comp

You're correct, my apologies. I ran it through the VIN decoder and it does show 7MAA.

I got to see them drive it in, with the DRLs on. Those things are so bright, and look fantastic.

Yeah...those are just HOT all the time! At night they just look even better! Was sitting in front of my house with my dad in his new Benz a few weeks ago and the words "this is a really nice car" had just come out of my mouth and that very second my wife comes around the corner really slow (very menacing approach) in her F12 M6 and those lights left me speechless. I said "sorry dad but THAT is a hot car"-lol!

2014's are 'light' years ahead, in looks and function.
