Wow, it's been cold here, but snow?! Yikes.

Luckily for you, BMW has seemingly now found all of their parts. We had a couple week delay due to this:

Parents had their autos detailed this week. This detailer is amazing & does most of the local exotics.

My mother is not totally in love with it as the low mileage reflects that. She would prefer a Gran Turismo vert.

The SL color choice was the preferred color in '04, cannot say the same for the Maserati in '11, but it was dealer stock. The X5 was ordered and the entire color palette was not offered when the M Sport Package was selected. Deep Sea Blue is a nice shade of blue. It is a chameleon as it changes under different lighting conditions.
