Hi All,
First off, thank you all for the wealth of valuable information in this site! I've definitely learned a great deal about our E60s through this Forum!
I've been browsing for a while now, and just wanted to intro myself with some pics. Sorry for the poor pic quality -- it doesn't do this beautiful day we're having in Vancouver any justice!
For the locals, the pics were taken up at Burnaby Mountain.
Hope you like them, and all thoughts/comments/questions are welcome and greatly appreciated!

Nice pictures. The mods look nice.
Do you have the sport package or just an ///M aerodynamics kit? The sport package only comes with shadow line trim in US models. The chrome trim looks nice with that color.

Great pictures! 
I like that color very much also. Can you tell how difficult is it to keep good looking compared to a black car? Dirt, swirl marks, scratches...
It's quite dark after all...

Thank you all for the feedback so far -- much appreciated!
Richard in NC -- Hello, from a fellow Richard in Vancouver! I have the prem-pack, but not the sport-pack. It's lowered on HR Sports with the full M-tech aero kit and Hammann front-lip.
Anzafin -- although this color (Platinum Grey) is quite dark, it's actually very good at hiding swirls, fine scratches, dust etc. I've had a couple black cars, and it's nothing like that in terms of showing swirls, scratches, dust etc.
B M What -- the pics were taken today, I just haven't bothered with updating the time/date settings in my cam.
