Thanks a lot guys for your warm welcome!

Honestly I don't know so much my car (picked up in the we and done only 400km...)

so.. Specs 545i Eccelsa dark grey (i don't know the name of the color) 18'' 124 wheels
wood trim light brown (don't know the name..;-))
Light brown leather seats with many funny buttons and regulations
Steptronic gearbox
Phone + Motorola handset
TV + professional navi system
sunroof
a lot (really a lot!!) of funny and "stupid" optional like electric sun shade

as soon I can I post some pics probably someone in the forum can help me to undestand a lots of things

I have a lot of question (for some I've already seen the reply in the FAQ) because my BMW dealer don't know so much this kind of car, here in Europe, expecially in Italy the gasoline version is really rare (tax matters) so BMW E60 it always mean 530 or 535...
I really love his V8 burble!!

So lets start with my question (if mod prefer I will open specific post, just tell me..)
- IPod interface: it's an original BMW add on or optional? my dealer don't know nothing also don't know IPOD!!
- How can I know the water temperature of the engine? no indicator...
- Software update and version : How can I know if is up to date?
- Bluetooth and mobile phone : I've paired my Nokia 9300i (I can see it on the monitor..) but I can't do nothing more.. it's my fault? I'm not so a informatic lover so probably I'm not able..

Questions for European owner...
There is someone that produce a "sport muffler"? to increase the burble on the V8?
Do someone have the K&N or Sparco AirFilter?

Sorry for my question bombing and my english....
Thanks to all in advance

Ps.. Yes.. Forza Juve!!!
