Indeed,as you can see on the mirrors, their shape is different from the other models.
The E60/E61 got this new mirrors starting sept.2009.
the production line for e60 ended in dec.09 and e61 ended somewhere in march/april?!?

I got my own e61 end of december 09, one of the last ever produced and "she" has also the new mirrors.
The addition of the black underpart is quite refreshening and if you order it with high gloss shadowline trim you will get this also painted high gloss black to match the shadow line trim.

btw:
this is my girl:

I love AW e61's

If you keep adding any more mods, your's will soon be more black than white! (It does look great though )

How about adding some nice white rims and white roof for your carbon black 550?

I thought about adding another mod last weekend, but my girlfriend stopped me.
I wanted to swap the badge with a nice Nordschleife adhesive, bu she insisted that it's a no go to add an adhesive,what a bummer!

But as you said above, you are completely right, the sticker was black

that said, I will paint my car all black tomorrow











..not!

Congrats Sim, a beautiful Touring!
You also have some interior pics?

How do you feel the suspension in comparison to the E60 - is it harder in the rear?
Is it more or less stable at higher speeds or in turns?
Do you have any rattles and squeaks from the interior plastics at the back of the car (and possibly panorama roof) that the E60 did not have?
