WOW wholy macro!!! you wrote a book and took enough pics to fill up a museum! CONGRATS!!!! 
I guess that's what comes of spending so much time here and reading so much about our cars... hmm, I might bring out a hard-back version of this post later in the year... or maybe even a film about the life of my previous 520d... or may not!

I forget, do the regular and sport seat headrest include whiplash protection or is that only on the comfort seats?
With all the explosive devices on cars these days, including, front, side, and side curtain airbags, seatbelt tensioners, and explosive headrest protection, you'd think you'd need the bomb squad to come work on your automobile.

That's right! I'm surprised we're even allowed to drive up to an airport to pick up or drop off passengers! No wonder those bomb sniffing dogs are always going crazy when I drive by...
Don't give the TSA any new ideas.
