Finally! I took delivery of my Space Gray 550i this afternoon. I've only driven 10 miles so far, and have lots to learn. This is a complex car indeed; manual required. No pictures to speak of yet, but I did snap a quick one before dark. The 167's look great, and I'm very pleased with my selection.
Thanks to all for your suggestions and support. Let the fun begin!

Congrats. The space grey doesn't look much different than silver grey. I'm sure its better. Any thoughts?

Mandatory US DOT reflector. I don't find it objectionable, others do.
