My Ride: Ordered 550i ED on 9/24/05. Titanium silver, priority one seating (black), steptronic, sports package, premium sound system, active steering, comfort access, power rear sunshades, navigation, head up display, rear door air bag
I just don't know why -- but every time I see pictures of our cars, I love it. 
Take your next set of pics with sunlight. Black is the color with the most class and the sun
will reveal that. Congrats again -- enjoy!

I fall in love all over again everytime I see pictures of the E60 it's just amazing, and the even more amazing thing is that it even looks better in real life!!! Mr. Bangle you have a fan for life.

Here in Texas, they don't use salt like they do up North when we get winter precipatation. They use alot of sand, I do think it has some salt in it, though. But they usually only treat the bridges and overpasses and after it melts, usually within a day or two, the sand creates shrapnel on the road way. A nice sandblasting effect.
JDN and the other Dallas/Fort Worth E-60er's will have to be careful the next few days. Luckily, my 550 is not my dailiy driver, so I don't have to worry about it getting blasted. The blasting is worst on the freeway, which my wife doesn't drive for her commute, so both e60's should be fine.
Stay safe everyone.
Congrats again and sorry for the tangent...
Regards, Mike.
