Here is my Jet black 325 6 spd with sport/xenons

I love it but its hard not to open 'er up until 750-1000miles.

Safari, it's gorgeous!!! It's all shiny and clean and shows off how awesome black can be. Congrats on your beauty.

[roburado]

weiweiwei,

I'm not sure is it does. I hear that it is not an option in the US. I didn't even know that I was getting the steering wheel came in titanium. I was never asked if I wanted that colour. I thought it was going to be black.

booyah I do have the 330 auto but in SA the logic 7 does not come with the 330.
navigation is pretty accurate almost down to the metre, ie you cross a road and on the map you see the car's icon cross the road on the map. We don'thave the traffic info thing in SA so detours based on congestion does not work so I'm not sure how that is.

Wei, check out this thread. It's not an option at the time of purchase, but may be able to be installed post-purchase.

Cheers Blackpanther

Yeah...A3's old now. The new model A3 looks miles better than mine now, but the E90 blows the A3 new or old away.

To be honest I didn't specify for the steering wheel to be in Matt Titanium trim too. It just came like that. OH I took her out last night to test her eyes. Those Xenons are fantastic! Well classy, expecially when they come on automatically too.

The engine sounds so deep and healthy...
The inside is like being in a library.
I could go on and on and on......Thank you BMW for coming up with such a dream car.

WOW! WOW! WOW! WOW! is the word of the moment.

Yep mark, like a dream come true.

BMWaustin, not sure what wax or cleaning products to use yet. I heard that the zaino prcoedure is too complicated, so I would appreciate some advice too.

Here you go, this is what I ordered, it fast and one of the best in business

Hi Guys,

I will replace this post when I have taken cool decent pics of my E90 but for now here is a pic I snapped this morning when I left gym.

[chrisbin]

Great pics A3ndy! Altho' mine will be a 320d (for tax reasons ), I'm now convinced I've made the right choice with the 162's and Silver.....lovely!

Olivier: Unless I'm mistaken you can cancel your order for that car. Tell your dealer to sell your car to someone else, change the color on your order and see if there's an e90 out there in the pipeline that isn't sold yet in the color you really want. It's your money. You'd be amazed at how quickly the dealer will change your color when you cancel your order. Besides, he can always sell your car to someone else. There'll be plenty of takers. Inventory is still limited.

Good luck.

Hi Mark,

Cheers for the compliments. I've got a Canon EOS 300D (it's called Digital Rebel in the US). Check out this link: http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canoneos300d/

The camera is really superb. The images that I posted are scaled down to 1024x768 from a colosssal 3072x2048. It's 6.3 Megapixels. I think there is a later model that has replaced it, the EOS 350D.

Here's my car!!!!! Just picked iit up today. I know, the pics are horrible, but today's been crazy. I don't think I've ever driven so much in one day before, not even on a road trip . I've got a terrible driving headache, and my muscles are so sore from all the riding around today , but it was GREAT! The car finally made it to the garage at home where I snapped 2 pics. I'll take some better ones outside tomorrow or sunday, providing it doesn't rain, PS the interior is black, but the flash makes it look grey.

Congrats sharp!

Congrats! Did you go with Jet Black or Black Sapphire?

Thanks guys! I went with the Jet Black. The dealer had a black sapphire and it really looked nice if you're into metallic paint. Don't get me wrong, metallic is great, but I'm just more of a solid color guy. The pics posted now are pretty rough, but I'm hoping to take some nicer ones tomorrow outside.

Believe it or not, I really think the wheels look nice. I was probably worried most about how they'd look in real life as I've only seen a few pics of the style 156. I know everyone was complaining about how ugly they were and how BMW did a really bad job choosing them for the regular standard 325i rims, and so I was really afraid they'd look bad, since I didn't get the sport package. I mean, style 162 is by far the nicest, but my standard 325i ones look really great, too! They aren't as sporty, but they really compliment the car nicely, I think, anyway.

I don't think any picture does the car justice (even the professional ones). I went out on a wing and a prayer ordering the car without driving one first, or even seeing one in real life, but believe me, this car far exceeded my expectations! Unbelievable!

[Jason]

Congratulations on finally getting the car sharp Can't wait to see nice pics of the jet black!

[spikes111]

Nice, you finally got the car eh sharp1183? So you did wait for your salesman to take delivery I guess? More than I woulda done

Great to hear about the 156's, I'm feeling the same way about not ordering the sport package. I see the pics and think too small, but when I see them in real life they look perfectly normal.

Congrats. Mine's going to be hear on Tuesday!
