Just thought I would make my first post. Took possession of a 2008 535i here in Wiesbaden, Germany.
Platinum Gray metallic/Grey leather interior
Comfort Seats
Premium Package
PDC
Navigation
iPod adaptor
Cold Weather Package
Before I get flamed for no Sport Package...this was a demo car with only 750 miles on it. I really wanted to order new but the wait would have been too long and we needed a car. I had the opportunity at a rare 528xi manual but after driving the 535i it was no comparison.
Now I just have to figure out how to make up for not having the Sports Package...I'll definately get some new wheels but then I'm not sure what to do thereafter.
Will post pics soon!

Yeah, we need pics. Not to worry about the sport package - mines not, but it does make a big difference in the way it handles. I'm starting to consider the parts i'll need to stiffen her up. I'd suggest replacing the chrome around your windows with Shadowline trim.
Enjoy!
