I have a Garmin C320 NAV system, which I bought a month ago for about $400, along with Europe City Select CD (another $300). You see a reflection of it in one of the night photos (with the road sign). Worked in Europe like a charm (except one REALLY messy place in Paris, cant really blame it), and now using it in the States. 3x cheaper than the BMW NAV option and transferable between cars too

A couple more pictures, with views from Metz (sunset) and Saumur.

I plan to do the same with an after market nav system...they make some pretty awesome ones now a days. LOVE your pics. BEAUTIFUL!

Gene, that latter set of pictures is beautiful!!! You are getting me so excited (in a car-excitement sorta way) to get my baby. Great pics.

Thanks. Yes, there is really a lot of options nowadays as far as aftermarket GPS technology. Unfortunately, the prices dont really go down too much anymore, because the map software is still expensive. I mean, I almost paid the same amount for just the maps of Europe, as for the GPS itself WITH complete map of the US ! I am really glad I did, however, no way would I be able to find my way there without one. By the way - I do recommend Garmin GPS over Magellan - I had experience with both and Garmin is more reliable and less intrusive. Also - if you ever plan to travel to Europe, pick one with a flash-card map storage (as opposed to a built in hard-drive) - it is easier to re-load the maps. StreetPilot C320 is one of these -I got one from newegg.com for $419, and Im really happy with it

Specs?

thd13 · 10-18-2005, 02:41 PM

Mystic Blue/Beige L'ette/Walnut 330i with 6mt, Sports, Navi, Cold Weather, and Comfort Access.

I'm really disappointed...I thought there would be more people currently taking delivery of Mystic Blue E90s.

stressdoc · 10-19-2005, 05:32 PM

Genesmasher makes you wish you could stop time. What a great way to get to know your car. I am so antsy waiting to go get mine I could die. Still cannot decide among AW, Arctic, and Mystic. Hoping LeMans Blue will be available and that will resolve the controversy. Beautiful car, great photos. Thanks for posting!

Why would you be disappointed?

The less people taking delivery of Mystic Blue, the more unique your car will be.

I don't have an E90 on order or foresee ordering one anytime in the near future. Just curious. I like the color on the car.

Pic of my E90 mystic. It looks so different, dark or really bright, depending of the amount and the angle light.

The MBs coming in now are virtually the first MB E90s around. The car is new and the color is even newer (on this specific car). I'm sure many people are just waiting it out to see if it looks as good as everyone else says; and believe me, it frigg'n does!

I'm ready for you to do your PCD so I can see some great pics!

Saw one (only 1) in person last week at the dealership. It just came off the truck and interestingly enough, it was already ticketed to be a Service loaner.

It looked nice. As others have said, it does look flat (non-metallic) from some angles, but I am happy with the color.

Well my car arrived on Friday - and its is absolutely GORGEOUS!!!

Mystic Blue is a fab colour - The car was delivered in pouring rain and yet it still looked great.

I was worried about my combination before it arrived - Mystic Blue, Lemon leather, Poplar Wood Trim - but it really is something special. Even the Delivery guy said "it was the best combination he'd seen yet - Very Classy"

I'll post some pictures tomorrow for you all to see.

I'm very happy!!!!

Congrats!

I would have taken the Lemon interior too, but it's not available in the USA.
