Hi guys! I just picked up a brand new 2009 528i today with just the Premium Package. It's Space Gray Metallic with Dakota Black Leather Interior. Hope to learn more as I'm totally new with the car. Thanks!

to the forum, nice looking e60...good call with not having the dealer mount your front plate

when you get the chance, update your location, helps with discussions and questions that you may have/be a part of

Thanks for the quick warm welcome guys! It looks like I'm going to like this forum already lol. Ya I'm still working on fixing my info on my profile but I'll get that going.

Still very confused about the car as I've always been a Lexus expert so I will definitely be needing a lot of time to learn more about this beauty and it's capabilities.

Welcome aboard. I also run with a 528i 2008. Is yours a manual or AT? Regardless, glad to have you aboard.

Again many thanks! hehe

It's an automatic tranny. It was a very random decision to get the 528i because it's suppose to replace the 4Runner when the lease is up in 18 days on that car. But so far I love this car! Never really got to drive a BMW for most of my young life, mostly just Hondas, Toyotas, different Mercedes models because of my friend, and Lexus.

So this is a new chapter at least for my car experience in life.
