Thanks Puck.

They are 158s - 17", with 225/45 tyres. I love them, they look chunky. I also love the standard wheels on the 330 too.

It sure does Ledzep. I am so stoked that it lived up to the hype in my mind, and that it still manages to amaze me as it beds in, and I feel more at one with the car. I have got to say I felt right at home within a short period of time, to me the sign of a good car.

It has been hard, but I have been following the procedure strictly. I want to make sure that it gives me it's best for a long time to come. But the engine is oh-so-smooth and it is so easy to find the revs climbing...

I can't wait to see your car Costa. You have picked an interesting combo of options and she is going to be a beauty. Hope they suprise you and it arrives early.

Congrats JamieA ... that's a beautiful car you have there..... those night shots are awesome .

Let's see how long it takes you to get past break-in period .... good luck in controlling your RPM's to stay under 4500

Enjoy the twisty roads .

LOL, thanks Thrill, it sure is hard.


And thanks once again to everyone for their well wishes... it is funny when you are surrounded by non-car people and they just don't get what you are going through when you get a new toy, so I have to rely on you guys to understand my excitement.

Congrats Jamie! A 325i with manual is an excellent choice.

But I think you should have got a black colour instead.

Thanks Hornet. I think an auto is a horrible thing to do to such a great engine.

I originally set out to get a black one, but the colour is just not practical for me with the heat - we get 40 deg C + days here, and how easy scratches etc show up. I don't know if SG will be much better but I thought it would be at the time I ordered it.

Nice car Jamie A. Enjoy the ride and coming summer.

Jealous - Just ordered my winter tire/wheel combo today. Forecast says possible snow on Turkey Day.
