Big Al, welcome to the forum and more importantly, thank you for your service to our country!

You're going to absolutely love your car -- be sure to keep us posted on how much fun you're having with it...

(and if you want, you can post a comparison to how it drives compared to a tank, humvee, etc.)

Guys, I just got back from Iraq and just got a up close and personal view of my new 550i. I am adding the M Aero Kit as we speak and will probally be upgrading to some 19 inch Assanti AF 132 wheels once I return to the U.S. Here are some pics of my new ride. Let me know what you think. I will post some more pics once the Aero Kit has been installed.

Hey Big Al. Glad to know that you made it home safely. Also glad to see that you've joined this forum. Lots of great people and info here. I haven't been on Bimmerfest for a while.

Post some pics of your car when you get the wheels on.
