Hi Everyone. I'm new to here and i just pick up my 06 550i today. Very very happy now.
trade my 04 Touareg v8 for a 06 550i(32K miles), White with grey Interior, sport package, Navi, comfort seats and comfort access. pay $44K + fee. How do you guys think? Is that good deal? They told me white BMW have higher resale value, is that true?

What should i mod first? K&N filter?

Will upload some pic tomorrow.

It depends on location. Demand for white seems to be increasing but in some locations, it's more in demand than others...

I personally think white is the best color and would have gotten it had it been available but this is what I was told by my dealer but what do they really know anyway, usually are useless and dead wrong so they probably were wrong about that too
