LOL! Real BMW's have round tail lights...yours is off by two years! J/K!
Congrats on your new purchase. As other posters have mentioned in this thread, cash is king. The other interesting bit about your "adventure" is that if the first dealer actually let you walk out without taking your 40K on the spot, you know that you are definitely getting a good deal on the one you bought.
