I finally got the camera out and took some pictures today of my e60 that I got last weekend. I am absolutely loving this amazing automobile!

This is my 4th BWM. I had a 1999 323i, a 2002 X5 (you can see it in some pictures in the garage), and I traded in a 2002 325xi on this car.

hey klepper, I had a question about your rims. I'm shoppin for a 2007 530i sports package premium package, premium sound package..... are your rims the standard ones that come with the sports package or are they specifically for the 550? if not, do you have to order them as an extra option and how much would they run for? thanks!

THe wheels that you are asking about (style 124) only comes with a 550i with sports package. If you order a 530i with the sports package the wheels that you get a style 123. Both of the wheels are 18s, but the ones for the 550i sports are staggered (i.e. the rears are wider than the fronts). If you really want the 124s, you can order them from the dealership with the car and will cost between $2.5 to 3K with tires. Or you might be able to find a 550i or 545i sport owner who's to looking to upgrade to some afternarket wheels and they would sell them to you for a little less money. Personally, since they are both 18s I would not spend extra money to change them. If you are looking to spend that much money, I would suggest that you get some aftermarket wheels or even the M5 style 166 wheels. I hope this helps.

Looks great. The 550i even gets more fun to drive once you break it in.

I like that your BMWs match in color.
