Congrats on your car, nice pics ... I have to agree with Fireman ... when I read chauffeur I cringed as the great engineers in Bavarian claim that the Joy emitted by the F series can only be felt when ones hand are firmly at 9 and 3 o'clock.

juztinl, mlai and chiver, I am still undecided on the tires and need you guys' help.
Please advise the tires (brand and size) you have ordered and prices. I need to pull the trigger soon if I need to order my wheels. Many thanks.

Thanks for your info, mlai.
Yeah, your wallet may miss a portion, but you will enjoy your stunning car with cool wheels. I wish I could have my car sooner.

Ans:
1. Yes, normal. Warning chime only for driver side seat belt. If your passenger does not buckle up - no warning chime. Crazy huh! for such a "high-end" car. Even the E90 had chime warnings for both driver and passenger sides..
2. Yes. just depress the PDC control button on the centre console to activate the PDC during low speeds..u can even see the activity when you stop...how close the front and rear car is from your car...

RC3 I only ordered the rims. When I was at the shop the only full set they had were the Dunlap sport maxx. All the other major brands either had the frond or the rears but not both. They said they will get more inventory the end of the month so I'll check what they have. May just consider the dunlops to save some $$
