Import fees, taxes etc all said and done and on the road plated I paid about $33k Can.

But again I converted my money when our dollar was at $1.10 US in Nov.

^^ sounds like a good price you paid man, I was looking the other day on the trader to see what they are going for and for a clean one with lower K it was in that range.

The E66 is the car I would like to end up with as I just really like them (most people don't like them I guess cause of the "out there" styling but I love em

) but I'm going to wait untill I can grab a facelifted one, as the only thing im not a huge fan of on the pre-facelift ones is the rear lights, and I like the valence that they added to the rear on the newer ones as well. I would guess that in another few years that they will come down to roughly the same pricepoint. I want white on white personally but would settle for black on sattle brown

I hear ya, I'll probably going to drive this thing around until the warrenty is up in 2009 and then sell it. Hopefully wont lose to much since I got a good deal on this one as it is, then maybe get a 2005 model.

I was looking for alpine white with black interior, but it is really hard to find. I dont want white interior since my buddy has it in his benz and the seats are messed up with black marks all over them from peoples pants I suppose.

Ive grown to like the rear end of the the pre-facelifted E65/66, but again I might just change the front end to ACS kit and some rims for sure. Not going to do too much to the car since I luv how it looks already

I saw an E32 rear ended pretty badly on hwy7/yonge today, hope nobody from here

Mine is actually sliver with black interior, but you will see me more often ripping around when the weather gets better.
Heres quick pic.

Nevermind the small ass 18" rims

, those are gonna be changed when the weather gets better. Still wondering if I should get 20's or 22's??? Scared of the potholes in the city as they might bend 22's easy. Of course gonna some tint for the windows, not too dark. You recommend any shops?

here is a pic of a 745i we sold at the dealership with stock 21" rims... the rims sold the car it was georgouse

Nice ride, but I think I'll be getting the OEM 128 21' sliver rims.
I'm not a big fan of chrome rims, but those are the style I probably will be getting.

If not those a nice brushed face rim, Asanti AF120 or 128 22".
