Congrats! Much nicer colour IMO. I had a simular colour on my old Touareg, looks good and it's not as hard as black to maintain...

My Ride: MY05 545i Jet Black with Auburn interior. SMG, Logic7, Sport Package, Comfort Seats, Navigation.
congrats
I would have replaced with another 545i just like you, if they offer to buy my car back. As you may remember, I had my transmission replaced at 1,600 miles. No issues so far at 2,200, but I am taking it back to dealer tomorrow for software issues. My radio and Idrive come on by itself and drains the battery. I smell a new 545i or possibly 550i coming up soon if they don't fix my problems.

[/quote]I was gradually cleaning put my garage to be sure the 6er would get proper treatment (as opposed to my wifes A4 Cabrio always garaged) and working to a 1 March delivery when my SA called on 24 Feb and asked if I would like to get it now
I said of course and gave him 4 extra hours to get it ready so I could finish the garage cleaning post haste. Even put my wife to work on it as well. The 6er slid right in, simply amazing 
Now all I have to do is remind my wife why we do not want to "collect' more junk.
