My Ride: '07 E61, blue exterior, grey interior, sport, premium, nav, other stuff
well, after checking out the site for a while, (lurking is such an ugly word...) I pulled the trigger and got a 07 530XiT with sport, premium, nav and a bunch of other cool stuff (toys as the mrs calls them) 
. Drives like a dream - but then you guys know that already. Blue exterior with grey interior, and sort of carbon fibre vice wood. Of course as soon as I get it home, the battery in the remote (comfort access) needs replacing and the rear tailgate window does not want to open. Based on what I have managed to search it may be the cap on the wiper is not sealed 100% and allowed some water to get into where the switch sits and due to sub zero temps it has frozen. I will be using a hair dryer later this morning to sort that out and hopefully that will sort the issue. The owner of the dealership I purchased it from is ready to help sort out it out. Pics and report on my findings to follow...she is a dirty girl!! BTW also came with 18" fancier (you guys can be the judges) rims and new Yokahama snow tires (Canada the great white north).
Looking forward to lots 'o driving and then come the mods...yuk yuk
see ya all later
