My Ride: '04 BMW E60 530d High Executive

Hi guys,

I just came back from a trip to Prague (very nice city btw), and I also visited the BMW plants in M?nich and Dingolfing . On the autobahn I spotted the new 3 coupe and X5 , the only thing that missed was the BMW badge.

The coupe should not be a rare sighting since they are at dealerships over here. Good X5 pics though!

Nice shots, when we were there X5 was still covered with black tape, none is out yet officially.

X5 is made in the US so no big deal but here in Europe they are not yet realesed. Thx Ralph-NL

Here in Europe the new 3 coupe will officially be presented at the Paris Car Show on Sep 1st, no dealer has one at the moment.
As one can see in the official catalogue, only 335i and 335d will have the twin exhaust, the car in the pic is a 325i. Only cars with either nav or bluetooth kit will have the shark fin antenna.

I really like the new coupe, will take a second look when the car is at the dealer.
