I just got a call from the dealer and my 550 finally made it. I'll post pics tomorrow. I can't wait to see the M-kit in person.

Not a bad way to kick off the new year. Sounds like you ticked everything on the options list too; best wishes keeping it in low revs....

Hey it will be a great day for you tomorrow. Good luck sleeping well tonight.

Plan on spending several hours at the dealer ... it took us almost 90 minutes to go over everything about the car and get BMW Assist and Sirius set up.

And guess what? Day One is not even the best day. Every day is!

I finally got my car home from the dealer and took a few quick shots in the dark. I'll post more later. The car blew my mind on the drive home. All I can say is WOW!

Looks great 550i Sport! I'm sure you'll not be very active on the boards as you spend some time bonding with your car!!

Enjoy it!

Yes kscarrol, the 124's are chromed. I'll take some better shots tomorrow and put them in the gallery.
