I'm not sure why that one photo attached twice; man is she something. Manual transmission is just unreal. More later.

I love that color combination! Your car looks like it is dripping in salad oil - deep, wet finish.
You will have an added treat when your 166's and Michelin's arrive as it is a whole new driving experience.
Again, congratulations!

Ohhhh Man! That looks good!
Congratulations.
I expect delivery of a Black/Auburn/Aero 550i early in June and now I'm even more excited. The shine looks great and the 124 wheels look great too.
I've been thinking when/if I'll go to the 166 style wheels, but man, yours looks great as it is.
Congratulations again,
Fill us in on more of your observations.
