My Ride: 2008 Sapphire Black on Black M5 - loaded sans soft close doors
Two questions
1. Where in Greece?
2. Did you have to pay a gas guzzler tax with the SMG?
Great pics BTW.

My Ride: 2008 M5 -- Exterior: Silverstone, Interior: Black. Fully Loaded. That just about sums it up! :-)
Very Nice!
The Auburn interior definitely fits well with the Black exterior.
/M-Aero Package is the way to go!

Nice car and choices Nice pics as well.
Be sure you get those piles of brown/gold stuff out of the way in time for the piles of white stuff
I used to get to Crete (Hania) now and then and leave by way of Athens back in the '90s . Always enjoyed my time there.

My Ride: 2006 530xi -- silver grey
Great pics, perfect interior color combo (auburn & anthracite)--just like mine!!
I just got the sports seats, but don't have the black spacer in between the thigh support and the main seat--mine is all auburn colored. I wonder if the comfort seats are just that way...
Congrats on your sweet ride!!

My Ride: 2006 550 SMG
The vacation pic is from andros greece, that is were my family is from. And yes I changed the badges to black and white, I know some people are against this, but I prefer it on a black car, its a suttle difference but I think it looks great. I still have to replace my front grills. I bought the black ones and got them painted jet black, I just cant figuire out how to install. Maybe next time I drop by the dealer I will have them do it. Anyway thanks everyone for your comments, this is the best car ever!!!
P.S. Yes I did have to pay gas guzzler tax with SMG $1300.00. SMG is the best tranny I have ever driven, I had manual for 15 years, and dont miss it one bit.
