After changing my mind many times about a 530xi I had on order - SG/Black then SG/Auburn then Monaco Blue Auburn - add equipment / take out equipment 
- and then finding out that my brand new 06 would be last year's model in less than a month after delivery - I called the dealer changed the order and got the 650i Conv - Titanium Silver/Black/Black - cold weather/Sport/Sat/L7/ - I LOVE IT - 
the car has amazing power - great ride and it is just a pleasure - saw it and did not doubt a second about - Sometime you just got to do something else - and I am not regrettng it !!!
Thanks for all the info here - It is amazing how much I learned about everything related to the E60 here - a truly incredible source.
Ah and dealt with BMW of Manhattan - not the best reputation - but my Sales Advisor was a true pleasure to work with down to delivery and follow up
Thanks again to all ...

Congrats xkgt
A 650CiA would be my dream.
If I only would be stupid enough to pay $156K for it.
The stupid part is the Finnish 100% car tax!
And the tax of 22% MoreValueTax (22% x 22%)!
Guess what I think about Socialists...
I just hope that EU legislation will free us!
