My Ride: 2008 535i: June 6th start build, complete June 17th, at NY Port July 5th, at dealer July 10th, took delivery Friday July 13- Plantimum Bronze/Natural Brown Leather/Light Poplar, Sport Package, Sport Auto, Active Steering, Premium Package, CWP & PDC. Dinan Performance Software 384hp & 421 ft/lbs.
The model designation on my door panel is "545is" I guess because I have the sports package or the SMG, anyone add an "s" to the model numbers on the back of the car? Where did you get the "s" and do you have pictures.

My Ride: '04 545iS 6 spd, bought new via eBay, 11/05; Blk/Gry, Cold, L7, PDC, BMW Rear seatcover for pets.
First "Bumwa" was a new 1971 2002. High performance 5s since 1987. Beamer motorcycles too, currently on an 07 BMW K1200 GT; also a Moto Guzzi 1000 SP III.
They seemed to have stopped that after the early models (my 87 535iS was so badged). They did carry it forward a bit into the 90s on the 3 series, but that was it.
Now, you have to know your blacked-out window trim and staggered wheel sizes...
Cheers,
Ray Hull
PS: The insurance companies still know from the VIN ;->
