Steve,

I love your car. How is your day going? I imagine your driving now. I really like the color too. Pray for me so that I may have the srength to endure another two weeks of waiting. Your post gives me inspiration.

Thanks! You can do it. I signed for my 550 on May 1st and waited till the 25th to pick it up, so I know what you mean. For me, it was a good time to say goodbye to my 2003 M3. The wait can be tough, but use it as an opportunity to learn about your new car and you will appreciate it that much more.

Sport Package is not standard on the 550 it is a $2,300 option. The wheels that I have on the car (style 124) come with the sport package.

Some of us want the spead but we don't want the rough ride associated with the sport package. I will spend 98% of my time traveling at no more than65mph. If I was racing for a living the sport package would make sence.
