Under some delusion that everyone out there may be interested in some pics of my new 545i, here they are. I must say this is my favorite car of all time - it is perfect for me, and I love it.

It is such an understated and powerful car, in my humble opinion.

Here are some select pictures. You can find all my pictures here and my cars website (yes, I am a sico) here.

dflan: Very nice site! Maybe you could put the options you have in your sig or on your site so we could see how you loaded up your baby. I'm not sure where Stow is, but I grew up in Cleveland Heights and Cincy.

That's an absolutely outstanding vehicle. You have every right to be proud and obsessed with it. I share the obsession. Your pride of ownership is obvious in the appearance. Thanks for sharing the pictures and the web site. I never tire of looking at these cars.

dflan: Thanks for all the really great pics of your car! And it's really wonderful for me to be able to see an interior with the color and trim I have ordered, but not yet received One question - it appears that the rear center console (where the airvents and the controls for the rear heated seats are located) has the anthracite trim (instead of the plastic) - was it delivered with anthracite trim there or did you add that later?

Thanks for the replies everyone - good to see a bunch of people with a shared passion! I have updated my signature per the suggestions, so you can see all the goodies I have installed.

Sam: Stow is about midway between Cleveland and Akron - right nixt to Hudson. Are you still a local?

Guest: The picture you saw of the rear console has some light glare on it, so it only looks like the trim extends there. In reality it is the plain black plastic in the back.

seeing these pics makes me want to get the 545 instead of the 530. i keep debating over hp or better gas mileage.
