get a real exhaust, and make him jealous. meistershaft sounds way more aggressive than RPi 
love the color combo, I have aluminum in mine, and silverstone/blue leather. great buy man!
I'm actually about to install my RPi scoops but want to get them painted first. not sure what color either...

car looks great man. Really nice pickup. I don't hate the wood to be honest. If you're gonna change I'd get it painted piano black, so sexy on silverstone leather. Good luck with it though.

Oh, and I personally love the way those wood inserts look, I'd leave it alone - it is perfect as it is

My Ride: 09 M5 (E60) Interlagos blue, Silverstone interior, with cold weather package. Adaptive Xenon headlamps and adaptive brake lights, hud, comfort access. Comfort seats, basically fully loaded.
Hahaha.... Thanx guys for the wishes, honestly every time i look at it my wife gets jealous, it truly looks amazing in person, pic look like shit. Vlad and John i agree with you guys about the wood trim, i dun really hate it, its just that i had a different pic in my mind. 
Neway i guess we'll leave it alone for now.
As of for John brabus, I'll just scare you with my meistershaft exhaust and let you get a ticket leading the race.
btw.. you got me freakin confused on the color for the rpi scoops, i was thinkin more of a matching color to the oil cooler underneath from RPI.
Also i ordered my hid away plate from ninosport thanx for the hookup.

I test drove a space gray 2008 fully optioned out. I will admit I do like the interior door panels more. The shifting felt so much smoother (didn't bmw improve the smg tranny starting in 2008)?
What have you found different from your 2006?
