I am a first time BMW owner and thought that the BMW 545I would be the best enry point for me. Attached please find a couple of pictures of my E60 at the dealer just before it hit the slush of Upstate NY. My SA was awesome and I would reccomend my dealer to everyone. I will try pairing my bluetooth to an Orange SPV E200 phone and will post the results within the next week. In the meantime enjoy the pictures.

PS This is a great forum and I learned alot in the past few weeks reading all the posts.


Will post a few more when I get a nice sunny day.... Man I love this ride....

Actually I went into the dealer, and stated what I wanted. He did a search and found one with all the options and exactly what I was looking for on a boat on the way over on 1/10/2005, that was being delivered to a dealer in Michigan. My SA called the Michigan dealer, did a vehicle swap, received a production number and started tracking. Here are the details of my ride and also dates of birth arrival and delivery:
