Default Looking for lowest VIN w/ small surfboard+silver buttons and highest VIN w/ large surfboard+black

I am trying to find out when the switch to the new buttons and smaller surfboard occurred for the VIN List. Der Kimbo at 710 is the lowest one I know of to report the changes on his car. So, I am guessing the change was made around VIN 700.

Default I've got # 628 and I have the silver trim on the buttons...

Not sure if I have the new surfboard or not...

Default IIRC, you're seeing less than half of it in that pic.

the opposite angle is more impressive, if this is the same garage I'm thinking of.

Default Yes it is the new one. PS: You have the FASTEST color, buttons and surfboard.

Hardy har har. Now we will see a flury of posts from all of the slower colors.

The ongoing pseudo-argument about which color is fastest. (ie. we are all dumb)

I wonder if BMW will change the trim on the M3 one month after they release theirs. )

Surfboard=antenna on roof looks like a small surfboard on launch vehicles.
