In a few days I'll hold my new E61 520d here in Italy, and I'll share with you the new arrival.
It's the model year 2006 and, because of a error of the salesman, the car arrived last week without PDC despite it was requested by me; after my claims about their mistake, the dealer proposed me to mount the BMW prism front camera w/back camera to view image on the nav screen.
As soon I'll get the car I'll post some pics about it.

configuration is:
silver grey, star spokes nr.138 w/runflat Bridgestone Potenza tyres, adaptive bi-xenon headlights, Auburn-Dakota leather w/maple wood trims, lumbar support, professional nav, bluetooth telephone preparation, 6-disc cd changer, manual side blinds, rear side airbags, automatic advanced air con.

Hi e61alex,

Enjoy the new car.

Thank everybody for welcoming me: here are the first pics, awaiting for this week delivery:

the front...

... the back...

... and finally a detail of the muffler (that seems to me very ugly).

As soon I'll get the new baby, I'll post new and more detailed pics, also with the parking camera retrofit kit mounted on.
About the muffler, since I don't like it too much, I've asked the dealer to mount the same terminal part as the 525d but as today nobody told me if it can be fitted in.
Let's wait...

Nice!!!

It looks almost the same as the 535d I'll pick up next week. Silver grey, auburn leahter and the same 138 wheels!

I managed to get normal tyres, it will be interesting to see if I got the spare.

Hmm... I think I have to go to the dealer today and have a look at it...
