I remember a while back, you knew how the F10 looks like before public appearance since you do their advertising/posters or something of that sort (sorry, don't recall what).
Do you happen to know how the M-Sport Package and M5 will look like? Have you seen them?

Just got my MB E550 Cabriolet on Saturday. I have the AMG Package with summer rubber, wheels, paddle shifters, sport suspension, sport mode button, sport body kit. I have to say that it handles great, quick turn in, no body roll and it sticks in the corner. MB is getting very BMW-like in the handling department. The exhaust sounds fantastic, something that BMW should learn for their non- M cars.

Are you coming to the Bear Mountain meet on June 12? I'd love to see how your new ride performs in the twisties.

Congratulations pennetta! Do post some pics... I have decided to get the M3 sedan over the F10. I took my wife out to the dealer yesterday to look at the F10. They were closed but she took one look at the one on the floor and asked if that was the 5 or the 7? She then said it is a sedan, not a sports car and that my E60 at least looked sporty. She also said I should go with the M3. God I love her! ![Twoup](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/twoup.gif)

Spy pic of M-sport package:
http://f10.5post.com...ad.php?t=391423
Those wheels are absolutely drop dead gorgeous. The front bumper looks like the one on the E92 coupe m-sport, which is good with me.
Can't wait to see this unveiled.
Anyone know how much m-sport package usually costs?

Congrats. The E550 cab is a beautiful car and to me, the new E is a better looking car than the F10. Maybe the E550 cab with AMG package has more aggressive suspension tuning than the new E350 I drove for 4 days in So Cal a month ago. That car handled like a pig in the canyon roads but was super comfortable and composed around town.
