The noise coming from under the hood and out back are intoxicating. I upgraded the knee pads to the GM suede pieces which definitely dressed up the cabin a bit. Found one in transit at the beginning of August and picked it up a couple of weeks ago.

Congratulations! You are going to like it even more the more you drive it. My previous car was an E82 (135i) with a tune and a bunch of E92M suspension upgrades and Koni adjustable dampers.
Upgrading the knee pads in the 1SS from the hard plastic is a must. I first purchased a set of suede knee pads and then found a take off set of leather knee pads from a 2SS here on the forum. I like the leather on the doors, but the suede on the center console. Although I'm now thinking of using the leather on the center console in the warmer months and the suede in the cooler months.
