Every time I go out to my parking lot I see a couple of E39's and I say to myself I can't believe BMW used to make such boring looking cars.
Then I see my black beauty (which still looks better even with the coat of dirt).

Different cars for different things. For driving hard and sporting around we have a Porsche, for general crusing for just the two of us (my wife and I) we have her MB SL. Life is fun here where the Police drive BMW's Audi's and MB's! oh, and taxi's are also made from those three

Just a thought! a 545 without sport package is not a 545~
But a 525 without sportpackage is a 525.?

Congrats
The wait is a killer but worth it! You could spend the time updating your signature with your specs.
Love the 116's! I think they even look good with a bit of break dust. Kinda adds a 3D effect.
The sport package plays no roll at all when accelerating from 100 to 140 on the autobahn! It's all 545

[/quote]Thanks, I plant update that tonight (that is if I get home at a resonable hour). I did not want to put that in until I actually had the car or it was at the dealer.
One of the reasons I chose the Autobahn picture instead of a car pic. The breakin period will be the next test!
