First Pics....

I took a few quick pics on my way home from the dealer last night. It was 10:30 and I was rushed, but this is what I got.
After the 150 mile drive home, I must say that the car exceeds my expectations. It is like a 4 door M3, but with a more comfortable ride. Not soft, just different. The power is amazing. The car has a lot of nice touches like the turn signals that flash only three times for a lane change.
Did I mention the power. Anyway, it already needs a wash. I will post some legit pics tomorrow.
