My dealer called me that my car arrived at the showroom today.
It'll be ready on Wednesday but I can't wait to see it in person so I'll head to my dealer within a few hours.
Offcourse I'll take some pics so I was wondering if you guys want to see some specific pics of the car?
If so then let me know
It has got all options except ACC and active steering since I don't like both.

Nope, it's Carbon black but it actually looks more blue than black in the light.
Thanks for your compliments!

P.s. Delivery of the car has been postponed to tomorrow (Friday), the dealer made a mistake with the registration of the car (Gotta love BMW dealers).

After more than 400 kms of pure driving pleasure I have to say this is one of the best cars in the world.
Took some quick pics of the car this evening, the car is quite dirty yet so I'll take some better ones somewhere next week.


Say Hi to my girlfriend

Lovley choise you have made!!

I?m thinking of replacing my E61 525i with a car like yours! Fun to see a car with almost the colours that I have been thinking of, same interior but orientalblue and polished alu. You wrote in the first message that you had not selected ACC. But at the images it looks like you have the extended version of ACC.

Is your tyres RFT or normal? My dealer are not shure if the data that says that RFT is option for 2006 is correct.

Nope, I don't have the active cruise control, I don't like the BMW version, however I might consider it in my next BMW if they come up with a ACC version that works like the one that's on the new Mercedes S which works from 0-200 km/h

As far as I know all '06 E60/E61s come standard with RFT's and so does mine.

Oh, ACC was cruise control! I was to old in my thoughts and was thinking climate control...

Did you choose the panoramaroof? I'm considering folding mirrors and panoramaroof, but not the comfort locking.
