Anyone else on the Elektra?

Looks like it's coming into Jersey on Wednesday. Can't wait, however I am really going to miss the E90.....just put the summer wheels back on today and damn it's nice.

I was dead set on the new M3, but I got the M5 for about $50 less per month.....no brainer.

I got the car through a leasing company that ordered it through Open Road in Edison, so I should get the car within a few day of arrival in the States.

Hey bud...

Looks like we are neighbors. I'm in Collegeville as well... Down 113 towards Skippack.
. Damn... And I thought I'd be the first in the area with an M5. I haven't seen ANY in the c-ville area.

What's your build? I'm doin Euro delivery in June and so I have time to change my colors. I'm torn between space gray and alpine white.

PhilT3....we are! I am on the Oaks side of c-ville. You may have seen me in a Space Gray M3 with matte black wheels.

I went with Sakhir Orange with Black interior and the 343s. PM me and let me know how the ED went...would love to see it when you get it. My vote is for Space Gray, but I am biased.

BTW...I picked up my car on Saturday in Brooklyn. Will post some pics soon. The car is beautiful and damn fast, but I have to admit I am really missing my M3. Hopefully this wears away once I get through the break-in.

Here are a couple pics I thought I would share. I am really happy with the SO paint.

Second pic shows the E90 I turned over. Both cars are parked outside the lease company in Brooklyn.

Thanks

I used Worldwide Automobile for this car, but also used Best Buy Leasing as well for my previous cars. Both are good to deal with.
