HI all, I finally did it! I just drove home in my CPO 2008 550i! It's arctic white, with black interior, anthracite headliner, bamboo anthracite wood trim, and nasca (ventilated) leather. I'm so excited! It's got literally every option possible (sport, premium, cold, etc). The HUD is awesome at night, and I'm loving the comfort access. Not sure if I'll use the lane departure warning or the night vision, but they are cool to have. The only problem... it's night and I can't take any pictures! I'll try to post some tomorrow.

My black kidney grills are already on the way, now I just need a recommendation for window tint in San Jose!

Thanks to everyone who has helped me over the last year find my dream car. I held out for what I wanted, it took a while, but I got it!

Awesome man!!! I just picked up a 545 myself. First car I test drove out of the E60s was the 550 and instantly fell in love with the v8, but I found a great deal on a 545 smg with low milage so I jumped on it.

Enjoy your car!!
