My Ride: MY05 545i Jet Black with Auburn interior. SMG, Logic7, Sport Package, Comfort Seats, Navigation.

I ordered my car back in July, it is now built.

I could of pick up my car in Munich already and have the car back to me by Nov 16, which is my birthday.

I chose to pick up the car a month late because my new office building was scheduled to be completed this month, and I need to arrange phone lines, networks, moving...etc

Just my bad luck, our builder was having some diplomatic problem with the electric company and the city, so the building's construction got delayed.

I found out today that my car has been built. Now the wait is even more unbearable. It's a full month before I get to see my car, and another 2 before it will arrive in my garage. I am starting to question whether the $4000 savings is justifyable for all the wait I am so anxious.....

Do I read that screen shot correctly - you ordered a jet black 545 with Red and Orange Leather interior? What does that look like?

I am in construction and can attest to city problems. I hope everything works out for you. My 545i should be here end of Oct. You should attend a So Cal event so we can see you color combination. Very unique.

Thanks for the kind words guys,

Regarding the pumpkin interior, alohac got it right, it's Auburn. The real thing is actually not that orange. It's more like red-orange, as the web site describes.

27 days to go and counting down. I feel like a kid counting the days before summer break again
