Exclamation TXSTYLE New Ride! Teaser Pics...

Well... It is that time once again.

After weighing MANY options from Sports to Sports Sedan, I decided to stick with what has served me so well the last couple of years... LUXURY! With a enough sportiness to satisfy me.


Shouldn't be too hard to guess from these couple of pics.
Once my shoes are bolted up along with a couple more goodies, high-res shots soon to be posted. For now my trusty blackberry will have to do....

Nice choice, TXSTYLE. The 7 after the refresh is awesome. Post more pics!!

Just picked up a 09 550i-Sprt Pkg-Jet Black (impossible to keep clean)/Natural Brown. Love it...it's a beast.

Nice pick up! Love the color combo too.

I was just looking at those used 7 and they are getting really cheap these days! I hope you got a great great deal on that baby!

I particularly like the tail lights on this model better than on the last one you had.

Congrats Marcus, love the interior color. All those buttons on the center console (both top and side) look pretty high tech and complex!

Thanks guys. Well I like many of you am a "car enthusiast". There are so many cars I like or want or dream of having. Honestly it came down to this car or a super clean M5 (which was actually less $) I spent a weekend in the M5 and that machine is a beast and is simply a benchmark. But the first night my wife and I went out to dinner in it she says, "Wow its so much smaller than your car." I'm so use to resting my arm on the center rest and never touching her (or anyones arm) that I guess I've become spoiled... Or maybe old lol! The 7 has yreated me quite well and so have my service guy and local dealer. I truly love the refresh as mentioned above and add to this the extra power, software upgrade, and now longer warranty for a stellar price, it was a no brainer for me personally. Once you roll around pampered and comfy for a couple yrs and hop in something else smaller, its hard to go back. But... Something of a sporty nature is always an extra option. But I would never give up a luxury sedan at this point. And
