Folks-

I've been waiting 5 years to take this picture. I bought a 2006 325i and made the mistake of having my iPod adapter installed between resetting the trip gauge at 1681 miles and actually reaching 2006 miles. This caused the trip odometer to get reset to zero so I had to take photo back then with the trip odometer reading 32.5 miles. I was determined not to make the same mistake with this car.

On Sunday morning, I was successful! Enjoy!

-Steve
