Car looks great! Monaco blue really looks good on E60's. Not to mention Interlagos blue on the M3! I'm guessing you ordered a US version so that you can take it back to the states sometime...as a diesel wagon would be rather enticing

Neat to see she drives a stick too! How do you guys like living in Germany?

Both are US specs, and boy do I wish BMW would sell their diesels to us lowly Americans! Would have got either a 530D or 535D instead. I'm gonna hate driving either of them back in the States; I've gotten used to the lane discipline and speeds over here and in the M3 people usually get the hell outta the way. Roads are a lot better too, cleaner in general, but gas is expensive. Germany is great...wish I could say the same about my job.....Took a bit of a sales pitch on my part to get the stick on the funfer...but she's getting used to it again.

As a non M-Tech version this combination on the E61 works really well.
The comfort seats are fantastic, but in beige as in your car they LOOK even more so.
Enjoy.
