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?

cwohughes- I would try the dealership you got the car from.... I actually pitted Pentagon Car sales against Overseas military sales to get 200 Euro off the aero kit.

Sean81- Thanks for the advice. I will check with the dealership to see about the availability of the kit. I was hoping to buy from Quad-m because of the prices he offers.

Hopefully I will pick her up early next week. I'm waiting to clear customs.

I'm in Bamberg, I was just in Ansbach last weekend for a soccer game my son had.
Yeah, it's the dealership in Wurzburg, I was going to buy from Bamberg but I heard
many negative things about the rep.
Steve Dewar in Wurzburg is a straight up guy. I highly recommend the dealership there for anyone in this area wanting to purchase.
What are you driving?

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
how come the your car has markers as well or you ordered for US spec?

I would like to give a big shout out to Steve & Shelly Dewar, they're the sell reps at the dealership located in Wurzburg, Germany. They really made my wife and I feel special about our first BMW purchase. Once we took final delivery they presented my wife with flowers, gave us a bottle of champagne, and a 5-series key chain as a souvnier.When I walked into the dealership the vehicle was superbly detail and waiting to be driven (too bad it rained on the way home
), anyway the ride was outstanding, it gave me a opportunity to try out the rain-sensing wipers. The ipod/USB adaptor with cable worked perfectly I was pleased with the results.I'm attaching some of the pictures I took this afternoon. Has anyone heard if the M-tech kit is currently available for the 2008s? All comments are appreciated and welcomed. I will attempt to post more in my gallery.
