Hi all

Thank you guys for making this waiting period a little bit easier for me
And thanks for all valuable information also... and still, further information will be needed in the future, i'm pretty sure . Sofar, the car has been like a dream.

Anyway, in case someone's interested, here are some pics. I sent a pic of my loaner, 525iTA earlier, so I'll skip that one this time.

Very special color combination! I like it a lot, very classy!

Congrats with the new car! Thursday will be my turn finally to post pictures of it.

May I ask why you put aftermarketwheels on the car. Didn't you like the original bmw ones???

Yeah, what's wrong with you?!


Just kidding, love the colour combo, very, very nice!


(my guess, being in Finland, he kept the OEM's as winter tyres.)

Probably because he has to drive 8 months of the year with the winter tires and oem wheels and 4 months with the summertires (and aftermarket wheels)...

Nice thinking Fred
