E55 Newbe

Just bought an 05 for 26K @ 50K miles. Still learning the in and outs of the car and so far I am pretty amazed. I was told that the 05 model had corrected some of the early issues. Anyway I am adding 63 trunk spoiler and wheels will follow. I have read many of the 55 posts prior to buying my car, it was a big help in making the move to a 55. I hope to post some stuff soon.

Congrats! An '05 with 50K for $26K is quite a deal and definitely the best car and power money can buy.
