You might as well goto the dealer from now and camp out, because your NOT going to get any sleep tonight. 
I think I got about two hours of sleep the night before I got mine. Cant wait to see pics of your car. My two choices for mine were black or white. I think the E60 in alpine white whith Aero-kit is incredible. Looks like you optioned out your car very similar to mine. YOU WILL LOVE IT!!!

Alright! It will be a great day for you. 
Good luck sleeping tonight. 
Plan on spending 90 minutes with your sales guy to go over all the details and to get BMW Assist and Sirius set up.
Your color combo should be fantastic to see in person ... and we will want pics as soon as possible.

Yeah it should be mid 60's here in NY tomorrow... what a perfect day to pick up my new car!!! Its just funny I have been calling up all of my buddy's and using the "I just saved a bunch of money on my car insurance by switching to GEICO" line the whole time... I really did switch and save money.
Thanx everyone for the kind words... I dont see myself sleeping tonight... maybe I'll be here till 4-5 am? By then I'll surely NEED to sleep. Anyway... I'll try to post some pics tomorrow night of the new ride!!!
