Wow...that 335 in the middle is especially striking....wait that's mine. Yea...I finally made it to Bimmerforums! I'd like to thank all those who made this possible...my parents for not aborting me, the US government, whose steady paycheck made this purchase possible, and all the bad guys in the world who give me job security.
Only 150 miles till the break-in period is up. Damn.

...and how could I forget you Blue3352006...without your insistance that I test drive a BMW I'd now be driving a Honda S2000...I chose wisely.

My daughter tells me I'm tone deaf, but I didn't think I was color blind also. I know my Monaco Blue E90 325i looks black in certain light (actually, almost any light, other than bright sunlight), but I didn't think sparkling graphite was so dark. Pics below.

In certain light conditions the graphite appears quite dark in photographs...especially against a bright background. I'm guessing I need a minimum number of posts before I can attach a photo? Schize!

Now this photo definitely looks like sparkling graphite. The others looked closer to Black.
Good pics. Where are you taking them ??

As a fairly decent amateur photog myself, the photos of the cars are way underexposed cuz the bright sky and background blew out the meter. Photog didn;t compensate.

We fired her...not only were they a little overexposed but the shots of us standing by the cars didn't even come out. For the camera to work properly, you have to press the button ALL the way down. I didn't clarify that in my instructions. Sorry. Chicks and cameras...sheesh!

David Ly was my salesman. Very professional. I believe he does internet sales exclusively but I'm not sure how the dealer biz works. I picked it up just before New Years.

The Orange Orb you're seeing is the Sun. Enjoy it while you can.

Looks like we have the start of a big group photo in the Everett area(I'm over by Snohomish).
I bought mine from Eastside too. Worked with Jay, he's a pretty cool guy. I was hesitant to go there because of the horror stories but overall it was a pleasant experience(as much as possible for buying a car).

We are all game here. Post something in the PNW arena also and see what happens.

Where were you? I didn't see the sun....hahah
Of course I was inside at work most of the day so I probably missed the 15 minutes of warmth.
