Bike Guy:
Hey, yet another Alpine White 550i! What options did you get? We ordered ours this past Friday, but it will not get here until mid-June. What production week will your 550i be? In terms of the rear deck spoiler, I personally think that the car looks better without it, but to each their own. Here is a link to a catalog with multiple pictures of the spoiler. It does not look bad at all, but I would rather keep the lines cleaner.

I think the spoiler is a dealer installed option, so on top of the actually price, there will be an installation fee, plus painting fees (if not already pre-painted).
Good luck on the wait!

My girlfriend came home today and she was thrilled about the new VW Jetta (she drives a VW Golf).
The Jetta looked so nice 'cause the grill had a large VW logo
Sorry girls...

Typical women stuff... whatever the car is, "but I must have a wing on the trunk"!
My girlfriend came home today and she was thrilled about the new VW Jetta (she drives a VW Golf).

Just get'em what they want. My wife likes cars that I wouldn't drive to a funeral, but she's happy with them and that is the name of my game -- keeping her happy.
