Smile New owner IX MR Silver

This website seems to be very informative. I am a newbie to this site. I picked up my new IX MR on Wed. and cannot believe the performance. I have owned m3's and audi's in the past and there is no comparison between the two. I am still in the break in period so I have not really pushed the car yet at all. I will post some new pics on here as soon as I can.

Whats up Fireball?

congrats, but people need to get their roman numerals down.

1=I
2=II
3=III
4=IV
5=V
6=VI
7=VII
8=VIII
9=IX
10=X

Heh,

I was a little confused about an Evo 4 MR as well.

On a side note, did you guys every notice that 4 is often IIII on roman numeral clocks? There was an article on straightdope about it, and apparently the shorthand IV notation (subtracting 1 from 5) is fairly recent...

Take care,
