745i on order!
Wheeee! 
My father just ordered a Black saphire on Black leather, fully loaded 745i.
It is going to be here some time in August...can't wait
He'd better let me drive it occasionaly, otherwise I won't be cleaning it for him, Noooo Sirrr! :angel:
Just sharing

Guys, thanks for your support and not-bashing-design!
Dave, right on the point! No written contract, I'll probably drive it as much as he does and I'll be the sole soul responsible for the up-keep of the vehicle. There's pain and there's gain, so there
Nate - I'm taking spring, fall and winter terms, all year-round studying. Paying for my one year of doing nothing in Australia, heh
in_d_haus - same in Toronto, 5-6 dealer ordered 745i's/Li's. With quite few options on them, for some reason (no ventilated seats, etc).
Doesn't matter As long as my father likes it, since I like it already.

Btw, just drove my small bimmer... it's waaaay underpowered
I really should stop driving cars that can and do spoil me rotten :banghead:
You know how I feel when i get out of the S55 AMG...rost12 said:

I have driven my car many times after an E39 M5 and it doesn't feel bad. Slower, but I have never been annoyed at the speed :dunno:Nick325xiT 5spd said:

Nate - it's not just the speed, it is everything else too
Btw, BMW drivers suck!
I've just gone on a long driving/breaking-in session in the seven, met a few E38's, two M5's and a bunch of E36's...not a single glance in my direction, not a single smile or wave :bawling:
Except for one CLK 430 cabrio who decided to race me :dunno:
I didn't play along, needless to say.
But I can attest to rev-happiness of this 4.5 liter banger I really had to be carefull with my right foot, this car is definitely trigger happy
Oh, and I've found some bugs
Voice command thinks there are no addresses in Navi's address book, but there are and you can get to them with i-Drive...
And at a stop sign/red light transmition seems to put itself into neutral, and when you release the brake it re-engages itself. So if you let go of the brake and hit the gas fast enough you'll get a small lurch forward. If you let it engage first and then apply the gas it's all fine.
And one more bug - Saphire black get's dirty reeeaaaal fast :yikes:
Gotta hurry up with ordering those micro-fiber towels, heh.
Welp, gotta go study for now but I'll continue posting my positive/negative experiences if anybody's interested
