He has the AMG styling package that was available everywhere else but here. However, it should be available in limited quantities for the '04 model year.

marksatex, what rrubino said is right, its the AMG package code #772 with the AMG 5 spoke wheels and its my ride. The exahust is the same but tips are included with the rearskirt. I suggest going for the quad exhaust if you want and get the matching bumper. I have quad exahust on order and they will have to modify my bumper to fit it. The quad does not come from factory with the AMG package though, you must buy it as an accessory hence I couldn't get it built right from the factory.

That beemer looks pretty darn good in black. Just got a black 209, looks so good in black but what a pain to keep looking perfect, I'm spending more time in the garage under the fluorescent lights than in my living room!

Didn't realize you were in KSA (noticed the plates). You must be the only one on this board from there.

Your car is pretty damn cool and kicks that Bangle-bast**d-child-bimmer's ***. Especially the rear exhausts.

Not the only one, there is hllatif in the E55 forum with his E55 and another couple of guys in the SL55 and CLK 209 forums. Thanks bud On wednesday, the dealership will get my quad exahust finally and I'll decide whether to stick to single tips one on each side or get the quad. Are you from KSA?.

Ed, glad you like it bud..

Nope--not from the KSA--I have spent many years there during my childhood because my dad was posted in Khober through Bank Al-Hollandi. I have many fond memories.

Quad exhausts would definitely rock.

The new 5 series, in my opinion, looks a lot like a Honda design. Take a look at the side view, rear view and rear quarter view of the new 5 and of the Acura TSX. I like them, but they are smaller, choppier and boxier looking than the E class. Design wise, not in the league of the E class for my taste.

I agree--the new 5 is a shame to an established pedigree.

Offtopic--Jeff--did you ever get that Voice Activation for your phone installed? My dealership is feigning ignorance on the issue.

At first glance of the pictures of the front I thought I was looking at a Pontiac Grand Am.

I think E39 looks better than E60 in pure aesthetic.

Obviously, Chris Bangle's taste is ahead of mine and most of bimmer lovers'. (but sales figures in E65/E66, E85, and E60 tell him he goes too far. )

Don't worry, when the new BMW M5 comes out, all you'll see is a quick flash/blink as it explodes by you. Thus, you won't have to complain about its looks.

I can't wait for the new BMW M5.

we can all ask the question again....why are you here?

i wish the M5 came out already, so you could get it, and stop embarrasing yourself on this board

Thumbs up

Kain - we all hope you will get your dream car - the new BMW 5 series - and begin a new life on a BMW forum. Of course, your eternal punishment will be that you will have to look at the dash of a 1961 Ford Falcon and the body of a Pontiac Grand Am!!

I'm surprised you seem to know the future. LOL.

In that case, the NEXT M5 will kill the NEXT E55 AMG. LOL!

Anyway, what is the "next" Exx AMG? The E65 AMG? Gee, same car with a bigger engine. How fun.

There is no way the E55/E65 AMG will handle/feel as good as the new M5.
