Hey, the dealer just notified me of the arrival of my 528i. Mind you it hasn't been prepped yet. When I bring it home I will post more and better pictures. Quad-M any word on the M-Kit for the 2008's w/pdc. Thanks

Nice - I didn't realize you could get the brown with the silver / grey colors. I assume that if you order the car you can override the standard combinations? I've had black for 10 straight years and always liked the various black/brown combos.

Congrats! Car looks great. Can't wait to hear some feedback from you, once you get it. It's so weird knowing that the 528i is back.

Hormazd,

I want to thank you because you helped me out immensely when it came to choosing the interior colors. I really wrestled with it and I think it came out pretty good.

To answer Greg530 question about the wheel well reflectors. I'm a Soldier stationed in Germany, when we order with American specs it comes legalized for the United States.

Also when you order over here you can put it basically together the way you want. The options I have are Prem/Sport pckg, Nav, Xenon lights, Comfort access, Hud, Pdc, ipod/usb.

Future mods will be the M-Kit and OEM 167 wheels. What do you think?

Does anyone know where I can find the kit?

Thanks in advance.

The red rear reflectors came standard even though it's a U.S. spec vehicle. Thanks for your replies.

it's a great looking car, congrats! Love the interior, would be exactly my choice of colors too.

So if you can order and pick up in Germany with US spec, theoretically it should be possible to get a diesel. Then have it transported back when your service is over. Or does that sound too easy?
