New to AP with a Diver and loving it! Thanks Seregin's in SF!

I have been going to Seregin's in San Francisco for over 8 years now and slowly been building up a small collection(I'll get a post of the collection up soon). I do not own an AP, but I have admired them for several years now. I got a call from Seregin’s letting me know he had something special that I may be interested in, so I had to check it out. It turned out to be the AP Diver in SS. Pictures are nice, but in person this is even more of a beauty! As you all are already aware in person there is so much character and brilliance that really make this model stand out. I knew as soon as I saw it I had to have it.

I’ve had it almost a week now and I’m loving every minute of it. No regrets and looking forward to expanding the collection in the AP direction. Thanks again to Seregin's and I highly recommend them if you are in the San Francisco area. Enjoy a couple of photos and thanks for all your posts and help to educate me with this fantastic collecting hobby!

Here are some photos that include pickup at Seregin's and also the celebration dinner that evening. I've also found that the new AP fits well in the ///M too!

Enjoy!

Ask for Paul or Sonia and tell them Larry with the AP Diver referred you to them. They are great people!



Thank you all for the nice comments and feedback. I'll post up the others in the small collection soon.

Whoops! I should have better eyes, I had a 2007 x5 48i and a 2011 x5 50i before jumping ship. My mom has a 328 with the same saddle color leather and I must have made a connection without thinking.
