Hello from Calgary, Alberta, Canada. I picked up my 2005 Titanium Gray I Metallic 545i 5 days ago and reading e60.net helped make the choice of buying this car. So far i love the 545i since my last car was a 2004 Mitsubishi Lancer which is a night and day difference. The options in this car are black dakota leather, bamboo anthracite trim, sport package, premium package, dynamic steering, active cruise control, nav package, park distance control, comfort seats, rear heated and folding seats, auxilory jack, rear sunshade, logic7, auto dimming mirrors, xenon and adaptive headlights and its a manual tranny.

So far I changed the Run Flats to Nokian winter tires, acs pedals are coming in the mail, getting the front end 3m wrapped in jan, and 20" rims ready by summer (any suggestions?).

Wants are sprint booster, acs trunk spoiler, acs roof spoiler, m-tech kit, hamann front lip, trunk finisher, trunk led upgrade, led tailights, led interior kit, angel ibright halos, and hid foglights.

Initial thoughts of this forum are excellent, you guys seem well informed and well connected with e60's from all over the world.

to E60.Net. Enjoy your new e60 and the forum. Looks like you've already got all your mods planned out. Post some pics when you get a chance.
