Very nice congrats!! I like the blue one in the back too. I never get tired of looking at vantages. One of the best looking car ever made

Kamran - How do you like the bike? I have an '07 R1, but have contemplated picking up the BMW as well ever since it came out (the Ducati 1198 SP is also quite tempting!). I've heard nothing but solid reviews on it.

Looks like we are hijacking the thread a bit so apologies in advance and maybe the moderators can delete this if they like to.
I got the beemer not because it was the fastest production bike but because it was (at the time) the only top bike with both traction control & integrated brakes/ABS. Its ABS has already saved me once from a big crash on redwood road (I see you are in SF bay area so you may know that road). Build quality and performance is next to none and I've put 17k miles on it in one year. By comparison, my Aston gets around 3k miles a year.
The performance is mind boggling and makes all our discussions on several more HP for our vantage cars sound irrelevant. 0-60 happens in a bit over 2 seconds and you reach 95 miles per hour in the first gear and now you got 5 more gears to go. The only other bike that may (or may not) top this bike is the new Ducati Panigale, which is about to his the show room. However, the price difference is so big that the BMW will be the popular bike to go with IMHP.
