Just ordered a 2015 Frozen Bronze 550i Msport!

Now the wait begins. This past weekend I visited my local BMW dealership in Brooklyn, New York and ordered a pretty well equipped frozen bronze 550i. If anyone is local and is looking to lease or purchase a new BMW, I strongly recommend speaking with Alex L. over at Life Quality. Awesome dude, not pushy, super helpful and knowledgeable! We both are pretty excited to see this in person. Below are the colors and options I selected! It is slated for September production and December delivery. Opinions and suggestion welcome!!

Frozen bronze looks awesome on the F10. Not sure if you have seen this M5 before:

Yup I ordered the car from Brooklyn and I live not too far from the dealership. This car cannot come soon enough!

Thanks! So am I! I will definitely be posting tons of pictures per my usual.
I end up taking dorky photoshoots with any new car I get.

Here is the one from my Z4 I got back in March:

And the one of my 750i Msport I leased as its replacement:

While I would love getting the suspension package, I just can't justify the cost of it per month to be driving around NYC.

LED Headlights was an absolute must. It was a deal-breaker without!

I absolutely have seen that M5 post before. This exact car was actually my inspiration for ordering the car in this color!

Just to give you guys a bit of background on me, I've been a member of this forum since 2009. I've had multiple BMWs and went away for a bit but now I'm back. Here are some of my previous cars from my little "stable:"

My 2011 E93 M3:



My 2012 Mercedes Benz C63 Edition One:



My 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera:



My 2012 BMW Z4 sDrive35is:



And lastly my 2012 BMW 750i Msport (which was just assumed by someone from Swapalease)!

The selection of your cars is perfect, you have a style. I wish I would have the C63 then the 911 and then still keep looking for something better) And the good news is you are with BMW again. Maybe the forum will show you all possible mods, however I feel you will be conservative with mods to keep the car clean and simple.

Congratulations to take the shot.

Hi everyone. So sorry but just wanted to let everyone know that there was a slight change of plans. I ended up cancelling my 550i and instead picked up a 2014 Maserati Ghibli SQ4.
