I finally had a chance to take some pictures of my (still clean) new ride this morning.
Carbon Black 550i with Sport Package. Love it. I love the heavy feel of this car,
the handling is amazing, the steering is perfection
Took me a while to set up my seat, the lumber support is very stiff.
Any way to completely switch off the screen while listening to the radio?
Even while off, it is still on and at night it kind of glows a distracting way...
I'm sure I will have more questions, but so far - so good.

Looking good! I don't think you can completely turn off the screen...you're stuck with that glow.

Congrats snowboarder550i ,

A very nice 550iA.

What brand of tyres does your car have?

And what is the "thing" behind the shift in the last picture?
