OT: Pictures from the 745i intro at my dealership (WARNING: LOTS of pictures!)

Okay guys, I know that I posted way too many pictures here but I thought you guys would enjoy the pictures that I took at the dealership earlier tonight. There were also TWO M3's. One with Imola red/black and SMG2 and the other Oxford green/cinnamon with 6 spd. Of course there was a Lemans blue M5 with caramel interior!

I enjoyed seeing the new 7 but I was so busy taking pictures of everything that I didn't get a chance to really look at the new 7. I do have to admit that I still can't bring myself to like the rear end although I think that given enough time it'll eventually grow on me. I do think that the iDrive concept is pretty cool but BMW really needs to speed up their OS software! There was a noticable lag between response times!

Overall, it was a nice experience! What really got to me is the fact that they used wood trim that has NO clear coating on them! I've never seen a car before like that and it's a spectacular touch! I wonder how it'll hold up against wear, tear and scratches though.

Pictures!!!































Hope you enjoyed them as much as I did! There's lots more but those were the best ones.

Wow, the new 7 series's interior really looks better than anything else...can't wait till they show it off at our dealership (Alpy, got an invitation yet).

And that green/cinnamon M3...just plain beautiful!
