Hey guys im so exited to get my 535i.. Looks like i will have my baby before the TX/OU weekend here in dallas,tx this coming weekend ! 
I ordered the m-tech body kit, which came out to 3400.. Plus that spoiler (not the ugly trunk lip one) 540 painted installed.... Plus the clear bra on the front side, and tint... They said they should be able to get the kit and bra on same day... The kit should allready be at the dealership by tomm. I got a 1500 dollar discount of Msrp also...
Equipment/Spec:
Black Sapphire Metallic/Black Dekota Leather/Bamboo Trim/Anthracite Headliner.. (Wen people ask me what color i say black on black on black on black)
Sport Auto Tranny ( with that really nice small shifter and paddle shifters)
Comfort Access
Heads Up Display
Ipod/Usb Adapter
Navigation
Park Distance Control (for the wifey, hehe)
Premium Package
Sports Package
Logik 7
Rear Sunshades
Im keeping this car, plus i had a integra type r 2001 for like 7 years now.. First bmw too ! Im 24 now so i need to get me a family sedan for when i get married haha...Cant wait till i get that vishnu piggyback though...
When should i do my first oil change? i heard its good to do it like at 1500 and just go ahead and pay for it? not sure on that..
Ill take pics soon as i get though.. Im going to do like three coats of ziano car wax... ill take before after pics and start a new thread ...
im been going crazy cause they freaking took a month off so it slowed production time! finally ... hope it takes like two - three days to get to the dealer... what yall think ?

Hahhaha congrats! I like crazy kids getting family sedans early and planning for the future. 
Excellent choice! How much was it after your negotiation? sounds like the cars pretty well equipped.

Wow, you are young. Well, this car is powerful so I guess that's part of the reason it attracts young ppl too. I'm not sure if I would put the Vishu thing on it if you plan to keep it long. to me, 2 years is a definite, 4 years is a maybe and beyond that, definitely no.

Humm good point. Bmw's have really good resale value, so i hope i get good money back when i do get tired of it.. i have to put vishnu though
i need power.. thats why i didnt get the m5 which would have been like 30 grand more after options for the 08... You think that the car will get ragged out with the chip ?
