Buying a new car and keeping it in a like new condition is tough. One way is to simply not drive the car and keep it stashed away in a garage. The other and most likely choice would go for a clear bra or clear wrap. There are many different types of clear wraps and it varies from shop to shop. The general idea is to place a protective plastic coating around the entire body of the car to shield it from rock chips, minor bumps and scratches. Some of the wraps have a "self healing" feature that allows it to reform upon certain scratches. 

The all new BMW 5 series has hit the shores of the USA and along with that BMW has released the all new configurator. It shows only the 530 and 540 models but not the M550i which we will all be waiting for. The link is down below.
