I finally got it.... my '00 silverstone M5....
The 13 months wait has finally come to an end. I got my '00 silverstone M5 today. I went with the silverstone sports interior with the titanium-look trim despite the negative comments from many people and magazine review. Well, I have no regrets. The two-tone interior is sporty yet classy. It's a little different from the black and wood interior I have on my '98 540 though. Pictures and impression will come later. I need to go drive it now.

Later,
Kenneth

Welcome to the club. Your exclusive membership number is SSK13! Enjoy. And yes, it happens, you walk into the garage at 2 in the morning just to see if you were dreaming. Thankfully, she really is there. Aaah. =)

Congrats, kenneth! You have the exact same car I have -- silverstone/silverstone with the sportive all leather trim. It's awsome. Unfortunately, I had a "detailer" ruin the plastic coating on my aluminum-look trim, and need to have it replaced. I'm replacing it with carbon fiber trim; I'll also post pictures when I get it installed.

By the way, I have over 7000 miles on mine now, and I _still_ can't stop driving it!

It won't hit you. Not yet. The best part is when you drive into the garage in another car and suddenly see this magnificent beast there, calling you for a "quick" grocery run. Any excuse works. "Honey, I'm going to go buy some flowers now."

Oh the power of seduction!
