I feel the same way. Now that I am older I just want a few practical Items for my e90 (trunck mat, luggage net, mats, ect. One Item that I did add/change were the wheels and tires.
I replaced the 17" v-rated sp run-flats with 18" BBS LM "knock offs" and sp-spec michelin pilot sport tires. What a wonderful difference! They grip like a MF and are slightly more comfortable than the 17" run-flats. The steering is slightly lighter and I am getting 1 to 1.5 mpg better fuel economy (lowered the unsprung weight by @40lbs with the switch) this has been the best, though not inexpensive , decision I have made on any BMW that I have owned.
