Incredible! I show this to my wife and I will get a new car in a year or two simply so we can enjoy the European delivery.

Excellent write up and photos. One thing though, Dachau should be "infamous" rather than "famous".

Fantastic! Felt like I took a mini-vacation just now!

I see you had a nice Canon with an L lens too - explains the nice pics!

Very nice photos and write-up. I enjoyed the pictures of the United signs...my wife and I are headed to Munich in three weeks, and we're on 906 and 903 as well. I hope we have the same luck you did with the flights being on time.

Which Canon body are you using? I've got a 30D myself, and seeing your pictures is inspiring me to take some good ones myself!

I have two bodies - a 20D for studio work, and an XTi when I travel (very light weight and compact for a DSLR). I borrowed a 5D from Canon for the trip, so the 20D stayed home.

Great write up and pictures! I enjoyed reading all of it and really wish that I had done ED. I've never been to Europe and this is my first BMW. Unfortunately I cannot be without a car for the 4-6 weeks that it takes for the car to come back here. Plus, none of my friends would have been able to come with me and I would rather experience Europe for the first time with a friend or two.

Thanks for sharing!

Great write-up and pictures, thanks for sharing. ED seemed to worth every bit. I'd seriously consider one in the future when the new the BMW museum is ready for public.

One comment on the "BMW wall" in Munich airport. Does BMW change that wall every so often per new generation? It looks like a E60 5-Series front end.
