Congrats. The car looks nice. More pics when you get it out and about.

Who'd you hire as a carrier? Jethro Bodine's Car Transport Co? j/k

It's a 2004 NEW CPO with 37,000 miles.

Options:
Dynamic Seats
Pano Roof
Keyless Go
SOLAR PANEL package
Parktronic

The only thing that it doesn't have it the Distronic. I never use Cruise control so I will not miss it.

I also have a new CPO 2 year/100,000 mile warranty. The dealer put new MichelinsX4, new brakes, SC Belt, B Service, and a bunch of other things. It wasn't cheap, I paid $32K (Delivered to my door) for it, but it was worth it for the peace of mind that I wasn't getting an E55 that was molested. This was a tradein....for a new E63. I spoke with the previous owner and the only thing that ever went wrong with the car was a bolt fell off of the exhaust system.

Congrads - looks good! I don't think you paid too much for what you're describing - the warranty alone is going to bring your total costs down!!!!!! - Now find a good dealer and SA to work with so the mods can begin

Nice Car , Good Buy

It's nothing like the peace of mind of knowing the car's history , no less talking to original owner,, The dealer serviced the car ,, Good Move , the price is what you wanted to pay for ,, for what u Got.... " Have Fun" take care of her and she'll take car of u .. When u mod use top quality parts and tuners with a real Good History and proven performance shop ,, this is not some Mustang or Japanese tuner car . Its a supercar Badm

Thanks Guys! Does anyone know how to use the solar panels? I thought that they were there to recirculate air in the cabin when parked.... But I also have that "Rest" button. I really need to dig through the owner's manual...
