Hey guys, i'm new in the forum and just thought i'd introduce myself. I'm in the Air Force and currently stationed in Germany, so you know I had to take advantage of the military discount and get a E60. I placed my order on the 10th of August and it'll be in my driveway on the 10th of October. I can't wait to get it but they said it takes some time because they'll have to build it the way i want it. Anyway, it's a 2007 525I with all the packages. I just went to the BMW factory yesterday and bought a set of 128's with tires so I can put them on the day my E60 comes out of the factory. Can't wait! I'll post some pics when it comes out. Oh, seeing all your rides made me realize that i'll be spending a lot of money into mine also

Welcome and congrats on choosing a great car. You will find this forum very helpful - and yes being a member and seeing the mods others have done will wind up costing you money

Most importantly, thank you for serving our country! Stay safe.

Does the military discount work with only active military personnel or does it also work for retired ones?

BTW, how does the discount work? Through the dealer?

Thanks in advance for the info.
