I've waited almost four years for this car. Finally a new baby brother for my E60 to play with. Of couse, it's sometimes hard to keep up with the kids . . .

Congratulations! That's a beatiful ride. I've always wanted one as my second car. Don't quite have the dough yet!! And I don't think I could slide that one past my wife! Maybe one day.......

Thanks for all the nice comments guys. I"m lovin this car.

btw, the wheels are Champion RS97-19s. As for PDK, it's a great transmission - and faster by far than the 6-speed. But I'm a three pedal guy. I love the extra driving engagement and greater skill of the manual. It's the same reason that I come back to 5ers every few years.
