TGray5 and I arrived around 8:30 at the Delivery Center. The place was hopping but mostly for German customers. I guess with the upcoming easter holidays, today and tomorrow will be busy.

We waited about an hour and a half before our names got called. Agent99 and BillP arrived straight from the airport around 10 as well.

The delivery went without a hitch except for TGray's 545 CD changer freezing up. But after a quick trip to the service bay, everything is a-ok.

There were many E90's all over the parking lot and we saw at least 5 E60 M5's and some of the new facelifted 7 series. I have lots of pictures but I can't post them from this public computer. Hopefully, I'll find a hotel with a decent wifi connection.

The car(545i) is a dream boat. We also had the week 9 changes incorporated to our 3 545's w/c were a complete surprise. BirdsEye view on the Nav is awesome.

Tomorrow, we meet at Dingolfing for the factory tour and then to Rothenburg ob Tauber for the nite. My wife and I drove to Nurnburg this afternoon and all I can say is the car is solid at 125 mph.

Big thanks to Franco and Keith at Santa Barbara BMW and of course, to Mr. Jon Shafer!

I met Uboat at the delivery center but he made a quick getaway before we can get pics together. Agent99, BillP, TGray 5 and I (and wife) didn't get out until 12 pm just because we wanted to savor the moment.

What can I say, picking up a Euro-delivery is a great feeling in itself. Doing it with three of your "bimmer" friends was icing on the cake.
