My Black '13 F10 M5

I feel that San Diego is about the only city in the U.S. where you can truly enjoy an all black car. It never rains there and the biggest impediment to keeping it clean is just the dust. I miss those days back in San Diego.

And yes, although it did rain last week it is a huge rarety out here..everyday is about 78 and perfect.

Bought it as is and didn't even know it had the welcome lights until afterwards. I do like them, although a bit showy.

Do the welcome lights come with any particular package, or are they an aftermarket add-on?

It comes with the base car and is a box you click for on/off in iDrive, under Menu then lighting options.

Yeah, it's pretty cool. Although, I'm a geek I guess. We just picked up our new X5 today and you have choices of a few colors like orange, blue, white, etc...

I am the same way with tech stuff.

Good to hear re: the X5. Getting a new one in about a year.

Haha good idea for New Years!
And
no kidding, cool. I will have to mess around with my I drive settings.. I was unaware of that.
