I'm in Dallas, and when I last spoke to my CA, he was somewhat vague and projected middle of next week for me to pick up at the dealership.

Stopped by Classic on a whim this morning and they had two new 550i SP's, one non-SP that looked like they had just come off the truck...

Cheers.

Went to see my potential car today, 550 LCI sport in carbon black on black. The dealer delivered one other so far, in carbon black as well. If all goes well with final pricing I will pick the middle of this coming week. The NY auto show lighting did nothing for the color, carbon black looks fantastic. The blue is definitely an edge, not a dominance or overwhelming. I also would go with black or nat brown interior, I think the cream is to light, IMO. Turned the ignition, sounds pretty nice...nothing to compare to though except my 530 and.....I will update ASAP, good luck to all. Is anyone getting the rim/wheel protection plan?

Anyone (528/535) heard anything yet? I picked up my loaner today and was told that our cars were supposed to be approved/released on Friday (April 13) and moved out of VPCs today. No confirmation as to whether or not mine was moved or is even scheduled to be moved.

I did get the loaner though, which makes me think my dealer thinks my car will be here soon. '07 328xi--pretty nice, good power, great brakes, and handled the terrible weather here nicely. Feels less 'solid' than my previous E39, and of course felt much smaller. Still a performer at heart though.
