Wow,we added the same options. Maybe this is the reason our cars were used less.
Any mod plans coming up?

I would say Advan is really good value for money. Forged Rays wheels are asking for 6000-8000 at 19'' and about same weight as Advan.
The heavy Work T1S is also asking for 4500,which is instock now.
Btw,where gets Advan instock for E60?

Congrats NY911
Mine was delivered to my home with 600km. Not too bad.
Since I'm new to Bimmer, I need some time read the manual and to get used to the electronics.
Cheers!

Looks like you really like the light weight wheels,

Should I get 18'' or 19'' to China? How much should I spend on this 400k hk-china car?
But my first priority is get whatever instock in HK now. Still have no time to check them out in HK, hope I could do this during this long weekend,meanwhile collecting some ideas from you experts.
