I did literally the exact same things you did when I was in Munich on business, had the time of my life. Oh and got to go to Oktoberfest too

Super impressed with Santorini Blue!! What an amazing looking car. Congrats on having one of the last E9x's!

Munich was by far may favorite city out of the trip, so much history and culture and even though Haufbrauhaus was a tourist trap it was still a great time, everyone was so friendly (might have been the beer though)

love the color! It reminds me of LSB and Estoril Blue, what car did this color originally come on?

Thanks for sharing. I'm headed over tomorrow to pick up my new M3. Do I need to rent a helmet for the ring? I've been going back and forth on making that pilgrimage.

i believe it originated as a special edition color for the UK. Not sure if it has been offered on any previous models.

Welcome to the club fellow Santorini owner! The parts that IND painted for me matched perfectly! Get on that!

No helmet, its just a 'toll road' fee is 26 Euro for one lap...even if you are breaking it in and have little experience like me its still a blast!

I thought the shift lights were standard or does that only come with a package (M-Drive?).
