Hey, neighbor, welcome aboard, freed0m.? 
I placed my order at the same dealership as you. I will pick up mine pretty soon. How long did it take from the ship arrival to your pick up? Let's exchange an info from now, say service, good SA, etc. There are another members around here. Soc_fans, and anybody else??

I would not call the Cayenne S the dark side. The Cayenne S is a very nice car. I wish I had one. You can call Japanese built cars the dark side, but Porsche - they are awsome cars!

Both are awesome but both are rivals of each other... hence Dark Side "Luke, I'm your father..."

You guys are hilarious! That's why I love this E60 Forums... I have been lurking the E60 Forums to pick up advices, owner experiences (good and bad), and purchasing tips (The Rizzo Method", I really feel that I got an excellent deal for this '05 545i comparing to sales qoute from Mountain View BMW, East Bay BMW, etc.
It would be really fun for local Bay Area, CA to get together to share and learn new information. I am brining in the 545i to a shop for Xpel clear bra installation in a few days ($700 for the hood, fender, mirror, bumper and 8 mil headlight kit installed w/ lifetime warranty), I'll post some pics of it too.

Welcome. You'll never tire of this beast.
I have totally gotten a lot of use out of my snow tires here in Chicago this year, with an unusually large snowfall to date; but now I'm just dying to get back into my summer tires. Hurry up, April!
