my 550i has been good. so she's going to get a vf engineering supercharger as soon as they are available. but, only if she promises no more 25mph + over the speed limit tickets.

Ouch! I feel your pain though, I'm awaiting my 20+ from photo-radar. Got me in the middle of two lights that are about 2 miles apart. Its a total speed trap but, maybe I should have had a V1 installed :'(

Regarding Christmas: 1 Aero kit, 4 172 style rims, 4 new nice tires, 1 M5 idrive knob.

Don't we have a chrome grill as it is? Or is it a painted chrome look alike finish? Sorry, I'm confused.
Not mine, it was a month early in the production and got the MY05 spec. 535's come with chrome grills, as do all six cylinders now though.

My car came with chrome grill, but I removed it because I hate chrome.


Black grill, with painted kidneys. Looks much better.

Heh, I also hate chrome and will probably switch mine when I get the chance. Grass is always greener... Plenty with black want chrome. We should arrange a swap meet.


As for my car, what it got for Christmas was a new home. I spent the time between ordering it and picking it up (today!) finishing the garage. I removed all the boxes and furniture taking up space, cleaned the cement, finished the drywall, painted it a nice slate blue (and even have some color-matched Alpine White paint for the door trim), and installed a garage door opener. I will of course have to clean the cement yet again because I made a mess with the joint compound when finishing the drywall. This was a LOT more work than I expected when I started the project.

My car would like a pair of long range driving lights - to make up for the lack of inside high beams in the USofA - for driving on the near empty roads west of Kansas City.
