Welcome to the forum - you've got a great car there, but I may be a bit biased
When you say upgrade the stereo, there are a lot of options - adding an Intravee will allow iPod/iPhone connectivity, speakers can be added to the doors (see PerryGunn's timeline for a how to with his Alpina) plus there are threads on here detailing anything from amp upgrades to tablet integrations. Depends on how far from stock you want to travel ...

You have a car like that and introduce yourself with barely one line lol!
Welcome along to the forum. Im sure you'll find lots of help with your audio upgrade.
However, we'd love to see some pictures of your car and some more information about it.
