Default Hello from Kentucky!

Hello all,
I’m newbie here but have owned several European cars. I’m half German so…. I have had several e46’s but am new to the e60. My child just turned 16 and she loves the German heritage, so when she said she wanted a BMW for her first car, I jumped at the chance to find her one. I’ve learned a ton about coding and programming and have done a bunch to hers. We found her an 07 530xi. Black with black interior. I’ve had to replace the shift solenoids and that when I discovered coding. Shortly after, her ccc went out and I replaced and coded it successfully for the most part but that’s for another day. The pic was after I detailed it. I was installing the mechatronics unit so she was on jack stands. And before I restored the headlights. They look new now. This should make her a great first car. It runs and drives as a BMW should! Anyways, I’m again addicted to the BMW’s lol.
