Congrats! My last ride was a 330Ci - gone but not forgotten.
Yeah, the extended maintenance price hike was June 1.

BMW parts/service prices across the board are supposedly going to see a 'significant price increase in late '07/'08' according to a local (reputable) dealership. Makes the extended maintenance seem more worthwhile.
Incidentally, looks like twinkidneygrill is still offering extended maintenance for 5'ers for $1,645.
