Hi All,
Just wanted to introduce myself. I just picked up an 05 4.8is this past Friday. It has a silver exterior with a Cream Interior. Picked her up with 38k miles on the clock, CPO warranty and service for another 12k miles.
I was previously in the BMW world with an E46 M3 for 2 years, then I had an FX45 for about 9 months, and most recently a Lexus LX470 for about a year. The itch to get back to BMW was irresistable and after one drive in this monster of a truck I was SOLD!
The looks, sound and speed are just intoxicating. The brakes are outstanding as well, and I just love the fit and finish. The interior is really unique and as one friend and BMW mechanic put it, the color is nice and obnoxious ( in a good way). It offsets the dark wood and black interior pieces very nicely!
I will try and get some decent pics up soon!

Oh, and I know Avanti from back int he day, and it was just a VERY ODD coincidence that we both just got these.
