My Ride: 2006 550i - Sport package, Cold Weather package, Nav, Xenon lights, 6 speed manual
Mods coming soon...Still need to figure it out.
Thanks for the great site and all the information. I am sure I will be spending the next few weeks looking through it all. I just purchased an 06 550i today and will take delivery tomorrow. Fantastic car with low miles and a 6 speed manual. See you on the forums!

Welcome Sparks...I think, if you're like the rest of us here, you'll spend more than just a "few weeks" reading through all the information on this site... 
Enjoy your new car and enjoy the forums!
