Rudy,
I haven't been here for a while and so much has changed! You in an auto car? unbelievable. Congrats nevertheless. I am thinking in
trading in my 545i SMG for 550i with sport auto too. Please give you driving impression comparing the SMG vs sportsauto ASAP..Thanks.

Looks like Friday (tomorrow) should be the day...
New hood was installed and painted and baked over the last two days. Car is supposed to be back at the dealer in the morning!
Today I spoke with the technician who prepped and test drove the car a few days ago. He knows me and my tastes quite well (and he always says he loves driving my SMG) and all he assured me I am going to love this new car!! He said as an automatic, it's just like any other new automatic -- you can't even feel the shifts. I asked him if he tried sport mode and he said he did and he raved about it. He said he had an ear-to-ear grin plastered on his face the entire time he test drove the car and just kept on telling me it's absolutely fabulous to drive! He pretty much guaranteed me that I'm going to enjoy this car as much or more than the SMG so let's hope he's right!
We'll know soon enough...

YEA! It must have been frustrating to wait these extra days. But tomorrow ...
I was in your beautiful city of Pittsburgh yesterday and today so I was hoping to help you pick it up.
Good luck with the hand over and have fun. We anxiously await your review.

Thanks for bringing some luck my way with your visit to our little town. (By the way, one of my favorite US cities outside of Pittsburgh is Chicago for sure... )
If you don't mind my asking, what brought you here?
