My Ride: 2004 530I (build date OCT 03), 6 spd maual, titanium gray, black, premium package, cold weather package.
Greetings friends..
Took possession of a 2004 530i on July 4! Have been looking for a manual tranny for a few months and finally nailed a good deal near Chicago... Titanium on Black.
Have already benefited from the Forum (the eyelid software glitch!) and looking forward to further exchanges with you guys.. I am new to the E60, but have been a BMW fan for several years.
I am in Milwaukee WI and the past president and current board member of the Badger Bimmers, the Wisc Chapter of BMW CCA. I also edit the Bimmer Immer, our monthly newsletter. I participate in track events by our chapter and will definitely take the new 5er to Blackhawk Farms Raceway and Raod America this year... No mods so far. Would love to hear from members who also track their E60s
Vehicle history:
1993 E36 325i 5-sp manual, M-tech, Dinan chip, Dinan muffler, Eibachs and Bilsteins, 17 inch moda wheels, 239,600 miles, sold on July 5 for 42K...
1989 E30 325i 5-sp manual
1972 E12 530i 4-sp manual
