Just Picked up new 2006

Will have to get better pictures up tomorrow in the daylight. These 2 are from cell phone camera. Note the bow on the roof for my wife. Dealer experience was just great. No haggle internet price. No pressure for aftermarket stuff. 2 very nice key chains. LMAO. Salesman wants us to drive it for a month before changing any of the programming or key settings. A few interesting things on the 2006s after spending an hour with the car.

1. The horizontal surface of the painted rear bumper has a black scuffplate already on it. (The pic below stinks)
2. The turn signal flashers can be programmed (or not) to flash 3 times automatically with briefly holding the stalk up or down, just like on the new 3 series.
3. Bluetooth pairing with wife's motorola phone was easy and works great! Haven't figured out the voice command stuff yet.
4. Cargo net is nifty.
5. Driving car home was just a blast on interstate on/off ramps. And adaptive xenons rule.

Here are the real pictures

I haven't figured out a lot of "stuff" with the nav and phone and the park distance control. The whole family sang happy birthday to Grandma by hands free bluetooth.

Oh, and the bugs easily wipe off the painted bumper! :p
