I went into the BMW dealership this morning a bit anxious as I wasn't sure if they'll give me what I wanted. After some friendly chit chat the sales manager excused himself to see the dealer principle to discuss my request further. After waiting for about 15 mins, he came back...extended his hand and said "congratulations, you got yourself a deal". 5 mins later, I signed the order form and the credit card doc for my deposit. Then the dealer principle came and he said with a confident look, "you're gonna love this car". I think he's right.. The deals done!!! woohooo... 
The bad news is...I have to wait around 3 months for delivery but I believe it's gonna be worth the wait
I now have to prepare my E320 for sale. It's gonna be sad parting with the car as it has served me well. But time to move on to something more fun heheheh...
This is going to be my first BMW and I'm looking forward to it very much. Thanks to those of you who have helped with my queries prior to me closing the deal. It's appreciated

I had an e class before too.(new shape) ? served me well ? although a lil bland ? but it was faultless. The 5 is a bit more involving and I preferred the e class styling a few years ago ? now I thought I?d try the 5. I?m very impressed ? and I?m sure you will be too! Would like to ditch the runflats soon, as the e class ride seemed quieter in comparison.
Remember that waiting is also nice 
Get one of each.

Congrats on the new Bimmer. They are great cars. I look forward to every opportunity to drive mine. My son likes my BMW so much that he bought a new 330 via Euro Delivery.

Congrats on your new car! I guess we'll be seeing you here alot in the new 3 months. By the way, BMW cars are called "Bimmers," while their motorcycles are called "Beemers."
