At first I could not figure out your new avatar.

How about a new handle too--Realityman?

Most already think it is reality-man (although I am far from reality, that's for sure)!

The avatar is quite fitting. It's just fair warning that I usually have my head up my ass. :'(

Between those two colors, I'd go for white.

white-e60 looks very good in white,yes-it does catch more attention and looks bigger,it's also a rare color for e60.

I am about to order a 550i and i'm having a tough time deciding which colour looks better with the M package.
if anybody has pictures of each colour, it would help decide :

. ALSOO is ipod integration available on the 550?? thx

I say jet black, or better still a metallic black.

Pictures from the info page.

If you use the aux input for an ipod you will probably want a car charger with a 'line out'.

Don't get the Belkin one.

I'm swapping mine for the monster low profile one as it is 'clean' (no cheapo pre-amp).

Enjoy choosing and enjoy your car

White with auburn is the way to go. Absolutely stunning. My 740i was white and it was the best color I've owned.

If i were to order a new bmw now, i would order it in white. It's not that i'm not satisfied with my current colour, i was a bit missinformed when i ordered it.
