new e55 owner from houston

I picked up a 05 e55 Blk/blk with about 38.5K miles for $36K a couple of weeks ago. It came with the pano roof. I don't know all the options that were available, so I'm not sure what else the original owner added. It didn't come with the dynamic drive or vented option on the seats, and I hope to get those retrofitted in later on. What really sold me was the pano roof.

I'm not new to forums, so I'll definitely search before asking . I did have a question about dealers here in Houston, which I didn't see many threads on. Does anyone have any experience with one dealer being more mod friendly than another? I also need to get a couple of things checked out as well. I don't plan on doing anything any time soon, but in the future would like to.

As for pictures, I haven't had time to take any decent ones yet. I'll try and get some up here this weekend if possible.

I'm in the galleria area right now, but moving to Pearland in about a month or so. When/where do you guys meet up?

I went down and saw Sunil a couple of weeks ago for an oil change and to have him inspect the car. He seems like a decent guy and the shop looks great. I actually went there from reading a couple of recommendations on here.

Sunil Patel should be in Houston and has set up shop. Seems extremely
knowledgeable with OEM mods.
