Man, I came back in my office with goosebumps. Went and told two co-workers with 330i's that were considering it. I'm still a little wired and can't wait to head out for lunch!!! Also, I'm expecting it to be good on the highway too?????

You're probably not going to like it after tomorrow. Please sell it to me, as I need one for my new X5. 
Once you live with it, you won't ever want to remove it. Just wait until you take it out when you bring your car to the dealer for service. You'll think your car feels like a snail.

My Ride: 2006 550i - Silver-Grey - Sprint Booster
Hey guys, one more question. My car has a ways to go before the 50k service plan ends, but the service rep was trying to get me to purchase the $1600 plan to continue the service. Is it worth it? Is there anything left out that I would still have to pay out of pocket. FYI - my car was used when I got it. They put on new brakes, brand new runflats, etc. I'm just wondering if I should go without the extended service plan.

BTW, I've never taken my Sprint Booster out for any service at the dealer (including a transmission replacement last month under warranty), I'm not sure why C removes his, unless it's for the reinstall and moment of JOY afterward!! How about the rest of you guys, do YOU take out your Sprint Booster before a dealer service??

Never drive your E60 out of warranty, if not the warranty your SA is trying to sell you, make sure you have SOME warranty before your manufacturers warranty expires!
