So the Owner's Circle site still shows that my car is 'En Route' but supposedly my rep was promised the car for Friday. He says it will be ready for pickup at some point depending on what time he gets it in and how fast they can prep it. I'm assuming that since I'm in NY it's a quick sprint to get it here from the dock so if the ship hasn't come in yet (was expected on Monday) they can still manage to get it here within one day. Or maybe the site just doesn't get updated right away. I asked my rep if he could try and get the prep guys to "forget" the front license plate mount but I don't think he's gonna be able to pull it off Guess that's where friends in the body shop business come in handy

Wow, cool news!! I hope it gets here soon!! He should be able to keep the front plate off as that's what I had my sales guy do too! He had them leave the bracket in the trunk for me and all was OK!

Man I bet you are peeing your pants right now I know my last day I was in a frenzy for sure

We have a good idea but I don't recall seeing a 2008 Black Sapphire Metallic 535xi // Black Nasca Leather // 18" Star Spoke Wheels // Sport, Premium & Cold Pkg // Bamboo Anthracite Trim & Headliner // Comfort Access // Head-up Display // Navigation // Logic 7 // HD Radio // Ipod // Sunshades combo.

An all black interior will look quite sharp but be a bear to get a really good picture of. Enjoy it! As I have my 550i for a total of 3100 miles in 1 1/2 months. And I'm going on a road trip again this weekend!!!

I can barely contain myself. Congratulations, we will all start reading your posts tomorrow since you will be an official member, anything you wrote before 12pm tomorrow means nothing!! Except the one where you said I should be evicted...I'll remember that one. We all expect a respectable avatar ASAP Maybe this one???

Looks AWESOME! Congrats man! How about some more pix???

And, when you're ready to lower it and fill in that gap that the XI leaves, let me know. I have a great guy on Long Island that did my install and charged me half of what others wanted.

Congratulations DS and welcome to the brotherhood!!! A man modding and his wallet are soon parted. Ps. While you're out enjoying the new car I'm shopping at the Mall of America with the wife contemplating suicide.
