Thanks for the info re RHD cars there were definately 24 that came to Australia.

As this car is supposedly unrestricted.....haven't had that confirmed by BMW yet, what does that mean the likely top speed is now instead of the 155mph???

I'd watch your mirrors like a hawk for the ever so militant Victoria Police :whistle:
