Greetings to all E60 buddies from Houston.
Yeah, still alive after having hurricane/tropical storm Ivan chase us all around the country - but still having a great time..!!!
Was it possible that my 545i arrived at the dealer and me not knowing anything about it.....( 5000 miles away )............NO !!
So, one of my friends ( secret agent ) managed to get some photos of the car having it's pre-delivery checkup...and sent me an email you can understand my excitement...
so could the hotel personnel and guests after I yahooed to the top of my lungs while on the hotel lobby computer ...hehehe
And it looks like MY2005 specs!!!!!
Anyway here they are...more pics will follow when I get back home ( that'll be in 4 days...)

andy545

andy545,
I noticed that your car came with the redreflectors. So bmw decided to add them instead of us adding them?
I know in germ they come with it but not in usa. I am assuming you are in the states.

Congrats, nice looking ride!
Definately MY2005, it has the wood in the center consoles bottom.
Once you take delivery, can you check the window surroundings and let us know if they are somehow "painted/shiny"? BMW said they would be on MY2005, but I don't see a difference on yours.

Nice ride. Black/Black is my favorite color combo. I've had it for years but this time I decided to go with White to make things different (and it doesn't show the kids fingerprints as much).
Enjoy it!
