I finally picked her up today and I am REALLY happy with the purchase! The car drives great but I am still getting used to all the functions and features. My sales guy said he ran my vin for the Ipod adapter (there is two interfaces) and he said my part alone was $370 not including service....anyways... I'll look around and maybe the guy from Newport BMW on here can hook me up 
Going back to the dealership to take care of a couple of bugs like the voice command for some reason it doesn't activate, my garage door won't sync, and I don't know if its an option, but I read....well my g/f read haha....in the manual that if I have my keys in my pocked and touch the keyhole for 1 second it should lock the door....well it doesn't work.
No pics yet, been driving
Definitely will get pics tomorrow!

The only way the key in the pocket control works is if you have comfort access. That was a $1000 option when I bought my car. I don't think you have that option.
ooo gotcha....I have comfort seats though! haha

Look at the back of your key if you have a little lid that you can lift to change the battery then you have comfort access if not then you don't have comfort access and the key gets charged when you put it into the ignition hole and start the car.
Nope don't have it....O wells don't really care....we americans are getting so lazy we don't even want to push a button if it costs us $1000!!! haha

Here are some quick pics I took today before I went out for a little drive
A couple pics of the interior
Also got a couple of quick Q's about somethings I've noticed
1. At a cold start, the car seems to shake from left to right and a weird clunking noise coming from the engine. Its a MT, but I don't think that should make a difference.
2. Every time I go in the car, the A/C automatically turns on, how do I change that?

Looks like someone needs a meet & greet (to display his new baby). Anyone else down?
