[quote name='bleudyno' date='Aug 13 2004, 12:03 PM'] Man, I'm pretty excited about my new car.? I find myself surfing the web everday looking for any parts for the e60.? I want rims but i probably only want to shell out 3500 max for 19's maybe 20's.? I want nice rims but i don't want to sacrifice ride quality.? As far as body kits, I think i will go with ACS front lip, sideskirts, and rear spoiler.? Thinking about just keeping the stock rear since i don't really like the ACS rear that much.? Any lowering kits out yet?? Probably want to lower the car just a tad.? Man, i cant wait!

I put my order on a 545i SMG last week at Irvine BMW with a week 37 build. Where did you order yours? I am hoping to pick it up Early November. It would be great to get some of the E60 from Orange County together when we get them.[/quote]
I just put my deposit for 04 530 at crevier today. She is still swimming!!!

We here in the forum will try to get you through this "expectancy" period. Makes a great place for prospective owners to get further pumped up.

Here's a link to the interview...

Now I understand why I prefer Dave... [/quote]
That was a good read. Doesn't really make fun of SMG style transmissions though, just that he prefers manuals. [/quote]
Do you really care about Leno?
I don't care about his opinion.

Just checked Owner's Circle and my status is officially, "scheduled for production" and i am now officially excited. I can't wait to get my 545i in my hands. I still gotta sell my current car. Anyone interested in a SLK230? haha

I'm not old enough to like Leno. I'm only 40.

I don't ever watch him. But I do have to respect a guy with mega money who pours a bunch of it into cars. It makes me respect Leno, Nicholas Cage, Seinfeld.

Welcome Bluedyno,

Great taste in your color combo. I thought I would be one of the only few Jet Black/Auburn/SMG in L.A. But I was surprized that so many people have this combo too.

Your're lucky for getting the car sooner than I. I ordered mine 2 months ago, but won't get to see it until Nov. 5 (by choice 'cause my October schedule is booked up). Then after that, I have to wait another 2 months before my car arrives in my garage.

Congrats.
