Thanks for the warm welcome everyone!
I live in NYC (I guess I should update my profile).
This is actually the first car of my own, prior to this I've just been using the "family" car ('97 BMW 528i).
I got the all black leather interior, I personally didn't think the black/red goes too well with the gray exterior.
I got the car for $30555 plus tax, title & license fees.
I can't wait until the weekend rolls around so I can take her out and put some more breakin miles on it! It's gunna be a loooong 600 miles...

Finally got around to posting some pics of my car! It was getting dark so pictures aren't all that great. I will be taking some better ones soon. Excuse the house as it is under renovation.

schweizer:

Quite a few people seem to have gotten similar and better deals than what I got. The trick is to call up a bunch of different dealers in and around your area and see which ones are willing to match the lowest offers you get. Also be sure to find out very clearly any other out the door fees they may charge beforehand so you're not surprised when they pass you that sales invoice to sign...

Greddylfe, Looks like your building a house or an addition. Don't let those subcontractors scratch your new baby.
