Default

Came in today which is a few days earlier than I had expected. Unfortunately, I can't go pick it up until Saturday...can't wait! I plan to bring it right to the tinter and get a clear bra put on. Anyone have experience with Sunguard films or Invincashield clear bras?

I got the car. Its great. A couple of little surprises and bumps in the road but overall smooth. I posted some pics in my gallery but I'm not sure if it will be in my sig.

First, the rear spoiler i thought i was getting was the one on the M5 but instead i got the regular spoiler...but I kinda like it and its growing on me fast.

second, the sat radio didn't work until 2 hours later when I turned the car off and then back on again...gave me a little scare. So far the treo is syncing ok. Reception meter not accurate on idrive though.

I love the color combo I went with. I had driven a 530i loaner while I was waiting for this car and I thought the power in this car might be overwhelming...it is sooo smooth, silky smooth. The sport package changes the ride completely! I love the M aero kit.

They tried to sell me some xzilon thing that means you never have to wax again but I didn't bite...anyone heard of the stuff.

Anyway, I am so lucky!
thanks for all the help from this forum!!!!
E60 rocks!

Looks great! Excellent color combo.

Isn't it cool to pcik up your new car and see only 5 miles on the odometer?

Don't be too naughty during the break-in period.
