My Ride: 2008 M5 -- Exterior: Silverstone, Interior: Black. Fully Loaded. That just about sums it up! :-)
Hey tachyon!
You had me going there for a moment....
I think it was the "front wheels don't turn" that made me suspicious!
I've got the 1:18 scale model from the dealer. Titanium Silver Exterior with Black Interior.
Looks a lot like its "Big Brother"!
Merry Christmas Everyone!!!!

I took delivery today of my new E60. It is a completely European spec car delivered right here in the good 'ol USA. It's made in China, however, so the reliability is questionable. The driver's side mirror already is about to drop off. 
Here are the specs (as far as I can discern):
Jet Black
Gray leather interior
6 sp manual transmission
Comfort Seats
NAV
Shadowline trim
Style # 123 wheels
It does not seem to have PDC or CWP (nothing on the bumpers to indicate such).
I cannot tell if it is a diesel or not, so I'm not quite sure which model this is: 530i or 525d
Acceleration is awesome and it handles everything you can push at it.
Straight line handling is fantastic, but cornering is more difficult as the front wheels don't turn.
Needs snow tires.
Merry Christmas to all.

Meant to ask: Is the steering wheel OFF CENTER? (OEM, ya know).
