Its official!!!!!

I am the proud new pappa of a brand new TL. Took delivery today SSM/ebony, 6MT, HPT + Nav. I know I am supposed to take it easy on the engine for the first 500 miles but I cant help myself. This baby moves. My T608 works great too

Only so many times I can go around the block and I keep looking outside in the driveway to make sure its ok.

How could a grown man behave this way???? Is this normal?

Which tires did you get?

I have 750 miles on mine now. One week tomorow. It goes but I'm learning to work with it's revver nature. It's probably faster than my past GS430 or 330i but both of them jumped off the botom much harder.

No its not normal...for everyone else. Just us 04 TL owners. Welcome to the club! BTW....we usually get off the forums and go sit in our cars and play with crap around 9:30 pm everynight...so dont be late.

not sure what model tire but make is bridgestone. Anyway as a side note I was originally going to purchase a 330i with peformance package but couldnt pull the trigger knowing the added value I was getting. I love the electronics and I could never get an answer about the bluetooth stuff in the bimmer. the alcantra suede is really cheezy and they also include it on the steering wheel. tough sell for mee at least when you pay 45k and you dont even get leather seats

Congrats!

Welcome Aboard!

I picked up my 04TL_6MT_NAVI_HPT one week ago!
Note the !!!!!!!
I was able to put 100 miles on her, before putting her in the stable for 5 DAYS!
Anyhoo,
I'm back in the saddle trying to put some miles on her ....for now.
Looking for the 600+ (1500+ for me), break in period.
This is such a smmooooothe running ride, that I will be content for the next 2 years to come:::

I don't let my non-pregnant wife eat in my car either, though she tries to, mightily. I love the interior of the car...clean and free from food odors.

And besides, that's why I pay for a car for her, so she can mess it up any way she likes.
