Pulled the trigger saturday. Soon will say goodbye to my awesome E60 550i Sport, but very happy to soon be welcomming:

550i with M Sport Package
Alpine White
Black Dakota Leather w/ Anthracite wood trim
Convenience package
Driver assistance package
Premium Package 2
Sport auto trans w/ shift paddles
Integral active steering
4 zone climate control
Side and top view cameras
Head up display w/ 6WA extended black panel
Smartphone integration
BMW apps

Only left out a few items, ITS LOADED !!

This is the 3rd 5er in a row I've ordered from the same Client Advisor, and 4th BMW out of my last 5 cars, so I've got something for these wonderfully balanced sports sedans.

My CA had a production slot he modified in my presence, Priority 1 SOLD, its in status 112 tonight. Build is scheduled to be complete in week 16 production. From order to delivery its typical for 7 to 8 week cycle from Dingolfing to San Diego via Oxnard VPC, so this sets me up for early June delivery.

I've loaded the production # onto MYBMWUSA website, I'm already obsessing.
