Glad you enjoyed the experience. Look forward to seeing some photos. I am glad you didn't get up to speed on the Autobahn - there's lots of reasons that I won't get into here why it's not really advisable to max the car out with so few miles on the clock. Also, the car will thank you for it in years to come.

I always maintain that ED is not really worth it for the cost savings. Although I actually saved a few $k off US MSRP, some hard haggling based on US invoice would have reduced my final savings to under $2k. By the time you add in all of the costs (flights, hotel and the wait...) it's really a wash.

Next time, make sure to exploit the experience a bit more. Drive the car around Europe, BMW insures and registers the car for 2 weeks to let you do exactly that. See some sights. Drop the car somewhere other than Munich. Take your girl to Paris or Venice or Vienna. And there will be a next time.
