Great Pics, Alex!
Your last one was a classy combo with PG, but I really like this combination with the blue and aluminum... Very modern and tasteful at the same time

EOP BMW's are the best IMO, my E90 and E53 were within the last month of production and have been great cars. Enjoy the ride

Thank you all for the compliments. As some said, this is rare and 'different' combination, and that is exactly how I wanted it to be. No disrespect to owners of white and black cars (they look great, too), but I wanted something unusual... My entire family thought I was crazy going with the blue, but when they saw it, the loved it too.

One thing I don't like about alum trim - it is too bright and causes some distraction in peripheral vision. I will probably get used to it, though.
