Oh man, I LOVE THAT CAR.

I've got to tell you, I've never liked white cars before the E60 with the aero package. Alpine white is the best color to really show off the lines of the car. But after 25 years of hating white cars, I just didn't have the b@lls to buy one! Looking at yours, I may regret my decision.
Funny you say that--I bought my '08 in Alpine White for the exact reasons you express, and absolutely love it, but would have bought Carbon Black in a heartbeat if available (528i).

Little question. Why does this car with m pack comes with the standard gear lever instead of the m short shift?

GOOD question; i have been wondering about that myself
But its not a big deal : a short shifter cost 60 euro or so aftermarket. I can alway put it on if i want. For now i kinda like it.

In the US, the short-throw only comes with the 550 Sport. Maybe it's the same for Europe?

Pmmeke: Lovely car! Those 172M really goes well with white ... but the M-sport pkg includes a M-sport gear knob, so I believe they either forgot it or someone nicked it...
