Over three years ago, when I made the switch from the E39 to the E60, people asked me how I liked the new 5. My standard answer was always, "BMW took a perfect car and perfected it." Today, I went to the BMWUSA website and saw that they are using the tagline "Perfection, perfected." in conjunction with the E60.
You're welcome, high-paid BMW advertising agency...where's my cut?

Imitation is the highest form of flattery, Rudy. When do your new wheeeels arrive?
I suppose I'll take delivery mid to late July -- I'm not going to do the Performance Center delivery this time because it'll add another couple weeks to the delivery! (I plan on going down to the Performance Center sometime soon anyway...)

Hard to say for sure -- production is set for the first week of June (or maybe the second week, I don't know for sure just yet.)
