Belated Pic of My New E70

I picked up my new E70 last Thursday night but it was too dark for pics. Friday was a messy snowy day so I postponed the photoshoot again. The weekend flew by and along came Monday. I decided to visit my cousin in Toronto and a drive from Boston would be the perfect chance to break in the new X5. Lots of open road to make sure the RPMs are varied as much as possible. Rolling through the Berkshires of Western Mass drew some weird looks. At one point I was in a pack of A-trains and super B-trains crawling up the mountains at 35MPH. Lots of time spent between 1,500 and 4,500RPM.

The attached pics were hurridly taken at a service area on I-90 near Utica, NY. Finally got my laptop out and dumped the pics off the camera. Better pics coming soon. Although I must say one thing, the color of the sky which I call "Albany Gray" complements the space gray exterior.

Very Nice combo!! I was wondering how they would look together, what options did you get??

Yes, very happy.

dr.jay, let me know if there are any areas you'd like a closer look at. I'll take a pic for you. Feedback has been all positive except for my cousin who I am visiting in Toronto. She likes dark colors so her opinion is I should have gotten a black interior (fppt... girls.. what do they know? ). I was initially worried about how the light beige would contrast against the dark headliner. Thankfully the color combo works nicely and does not look out of place.
