My Ride: 2010 BMW 550i. White with Black interior, M-Sport, Sport Auto transmission, value package, comfort access keyless entry
Just picked up my first BMW. An Alpine White/Black CPO 2010 550i with 28K miles. The M-Sport package with 19" wheels really attracted me to the car. I would've been happy with an equally equipped 535i, but I had to have this car after seeing it at a local BMW dealer on the showroom floor.
I know next to nothing about BMW's, so I'll be lurking here hoping to learn from you all.

She's a beaut! Welcome to the Forums! You can learn much more than you ever envisioned by perusing various sections and digging in. One wee lil word of advice: up the limit of your credit cards, because once the mod bug bites (and it very well may if you hang here long enough), you will be HOOKED!

Thank you all for the warm welcome and nice comments about my 550. I'm sure I'll have questions once I get more time behind the wheel.
